Problems solved by technology

However, since the super-duralumin aging temperature is 120°C, the heat treatment to increase the hardness of the coating at 400°C will inevitably lead to a significant decrease in the hardness and strength of the super-duralumin matrix.
However, the low-temperature heat treatment at 120°C cannot significantly increase the hardness of the coating.
[0006] For this reason, in order to use electroless nickel plati

Abstract

The invention discloses a heat treatment method of ultrahard aluminum alloy after chemical nickel-plating. The method comprises the following steps of: carrying out the chemical nickel-plating firstly on the ultrahard aluminum alloy, i.e. carrying out alkali washing, acid washing, zinc dipping, water washing, secondary zinc dipping, alkaline chemical nickel-plating, acid chemical nickel-plating and water washing; carrying out ageing treatment by using the solid solution heat treatment temperature of a matrix as the heat treatment temperature for hardening a plating layer; and at the same time of guaranteeing the hardness and the strength of the ultrahard aluminum alloy matrix, obtaining a high-hardness chemical nickel-plating layer on the surface. Moreover, the method is environmentally friendly and saves energy. By adopting the method, the weakness of low ultrahard aluminum alloy abrasive resistance can be overcome, and the application field of the ultrahard aluminum alloy is enlarged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a metal material surface wear-resistant treatment method, in particular to a heat treatment method involving electroless nickel plating on the surface of a superhard aluminum alloy. Background technique [0002] Superhard aluminum alloy has the characteristics of high strength, low density, good processing performance and process performance, and is widely used in important fields such as aerospace and military industry, as well as civil industries such as textile devices. The excellent mechanical properties of super duralumin need to be obtained through solution + aging heat treatment. The conventional process is solution treatment at 485°C followed by water cooling + aging treatment at 120°C. [0003] With the expansion of the scope of application, the parts made of superhard aluminum alloys, such as cabinet guide rails, have further put forward wear-resistant performance requirements, so it is necessary to carry out wear-res...
