Problems solved by technology

When this aluminum-zirconium master alloy ingot with structural defects is directly added to the aluminum alloy melt, the improper casting process often easily leads to large-sized Al in the aluminum-zirconium master alloy. 3 Zr compounds and their compounds are not fully dissolved, and then form "colloidal particles" that are directly inherited into the added aluminum alloy material. Due to the uncertainty of the segregation area of ​​this type of compound and the difficulty of flaw detection, etc., it seriously affects the quality of the added aluminum alloy material.

Abstract

The invention discloses an aluminum-zirconium intermediate alloy. The aluminum contains 9 to 10 weight percent of zirconium. In the aluminum-zirconium intermediate alloy disclosed by the invention, the content of a zirconium element is increased to about 10 percent, so that a large number of blocky Al3Zr compounds are formed, the sizes of the blocky Al3Zr compounds are reduced to be between 20 and 100 microns and the blocky Al3Zr compounds are distributed and diffused more uniformly. When the aluminum-zirconium intermediate alloy disclosed by the invention is applied to an aluminum alloy manufacturing process, the risk of Al3Zr compound segregation of an aluminum alloy can be lowered and the service performance of an aluminum alloy material is enhanced. The invention also discloses a preparation method of the aluminum-zirconium intermediate alloy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of alloy preparation, in particular to an aluminum-zirconium master alloy and a preparation method. Background technique [0002] In industrial production, a small amount of zirconium is added to ultra-light aluminum-lithium alloys and Al-Zn-Mg-Cu high-strength aluminum alloys. Its functions are: one is to refine the as-cast grains, and the other is to homogenize the ingot When forming a uniform dispersion of Al 3 Zr can inhibit the recrystallization behavior of deformation processing, control the grain size and shape; at the same time, it can also improve the hardenability, weldability, fracture toughness, stress corrosion resistance and other comprehensive properties of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy. [0003] The addition amount of zirconium in the aluminum alloy is 0.1%-0.3%, and in the aluminum alloy manufacturing process, the aluminum-zirconium master alloy ingot containing 3%-4% of zirconium is added to the alumi...
