Abstract

The invention relates to a high aluminum zinc alloy etching agent, which can be used for preparing the metallurgical sample of cast and solution treated high aluminum zinc alloy, and is especially suitable for the high aluminum zinc alloy modified by adding zirconium, rare earth and the like. The etching agent comprises hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, glacial acetic acid, picric acid, anhydrous ethanol and water. The corrosion method of the metallic phase of high aluminum zinc alloy using the etching agent is as follows: (1) corrosion, the high aluminum zinc alloy sample after grinding and polishing treatment is immersed in the etching agent at a temperature of 15-30 DEG C, is corroded for 3-15 seconds under the swing condition and taken out; (2) cleaning, the high aluminum zinc alloy sample taken out of the etching agent is immersed in the anhydrous ethanol, and is taken out after ultrasonic cleaning; and (3) drying, the cleaned high aluminum zinc alloy sample is dried by cold wind at room temperature. The metallurgical etching agent of the invention is adopted, so that the metallurgical structure grain boundary is clear, and a second phase is easy to distinguish; and the etching agent has the advantages of short corrosion time of the sample, simple preparation process of the etching agent and the like.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metallographic sample preparation, and relates to a high-aluminum-zinc alloy etching agent and a method of use thereof. It can be used for the preparation of metallographic samples of high-aluminum-zinc alloys in as-cast and solution-treated states, and is particularly suitable for adding zirconium and rare earth High-aluminum-zinc alloy with other modification treatments. Background technique [0002] High-aluminum zinc alloy is a new type of gravity casting non-ferrous alloy that has been rapidly developed in recent years. Among them, ZA27 is the highest strength cast aluminum-zinc alloy. It has many excellent characteristics, such as low density, high ultimate tensile strength, good wear resistance, good load-bearing ability, moderate thermal and electrical conductivity, non-magnetic, and no sparks during collision. At present, ZA27 alloy has become an excellent substitute for wear-resistant materials such as coppe...
