Abstract

The present invention is directed to an aluminum alloy including aluminum as a basic component, silicon, copper, magnesium, iron, manganese, zinc, nickel and the like in a predetermined composition ratio, and a method of manufacturing of a vehicle cylinder liner having excellent wear resistance and heat resistance using the aluminum alloy. The method of manufacturing a vehicle cylinder liner includes the steps of: adding 50 to 500 ppm of phosphorus (P) to the aluminum alloy while maintaining a temperature of the aluminum alloy at 700 to 800 DEG C. in a holding furnace, stabilizing the molten aluminum alloy including the phosphorus (P) for 30 to 60 minutes to reform the molten aluminum alloy, and then continuous-casting the reformed molten aluminum alloy to form a round bar; hot-forging the round bar to forming a cylindrical liner; and machining an internal surface of the cylinder liner, with which a reciprocating piston comes into contact, to allow silicon particles to protrude.

Description

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0002] This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(a) to Korean Application No. 10-2009-0059372, filed June 30, 2009, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to aluminum alloys for vehicle cylinder liners and methods of making cylinder liners using the same. Background technique [0004] Typically, cylinder liners are fitted into bores in the engine block to properly prevent wear of the bore during reciprocation of the piston. Currently, cylinder liners used to strengthen the bore of an aluminum cylinder block and conform to the trend of reducing the weight of engines of transport machines such as automobiles are mainly made of cast iron. [0005] Recently, cylinder liners made of aluminum extrusions have been used to improve engine cooling performance and reduce the weight of engines according to the development of high-pow...
