Problems solved by technology

They have been widely used in aluminum alloys and are commercially available, but after being added to magnesium alloys, excess aluminum elements will inevitably be introduced, causing fluctuations in the alloy composition, and the metal compound particles in these three kinds of intermediate alloys (such as Al 4 C 3 、TiB 2 , TiC, etc.) are infiltrated by the aluminum matrix, and when used in magnesium alloys, they have lost their activity with the magnesium melt to a certain extent, resulting in a decrease in grain refinement efficiency
In addition, the Mg-Al-C master alloy is also a commonly used master alloy, but it needs to add more carbon or carbon-containing substances to the Mg-Al alloy melt to form more Al 4 C 3 or Al 2 OC particles, therefore, the Mg-Al-C master alloy has the same disadvantages as the first type of carbon-containing material addition process. Carbon powder is not easy to add to the magnesium alloy melt and is not easy to react. Carbon-containing organic matter, carbonic acid compounds, carbon-containing Adding gas etc. to the magnesium alloy melt will cause certain pollution to the alloy melt and the content of the reaction product is not easy to control
This is different from the master alloy in which metal compound particles are added to the magnesium alloy. Part of the alloying elements added to the melt will react with aluminum or magnesium to form compounds, and some even form coarse compounds, resulting in alloy Effect of elements on grain refinement of magnesium alloys is unstable

[0042] Example 1 Preparation of magnesium alloy without adding grain refiner

[0043] This example serves as a blank control example without adding a grain refiner.

[0044] The following formula is adopted, and it consists of the following components in terms of mass percentage: Al: 1.35%; Mn, Fe, Si, Ni, Cu, Na are less than 0.30%; Mg: the balance. Melting is carried out in a vacuum induction melting furnace, and pure magnesium and pure aluminum are put into a low-carbon steel crucible according to the formula. Before smelting, evacuate the furnace to a vacuum state, then pass in argon gas, and then start smelting. After the alloy is completely melted, keep it at 720°C for 30 minutes, and pass in argon gas for stirring, so that the added raw materials are fully alloyed.

Abstract

The invention relates to a grain refiner for magnesium alloy, belonging to the field of alloy materials, in particular to the application of Al2Ca in preparing a grain refiner of magnesium alloy. The invention also relates to a grain refined type magnesium alloy, which comprises the following components by weight percent: 2.35-14.1% of Al2Ca, less than or equal to 0.3% and the balance of Mg. The preparation method of the magnesium alloy is as follows: heating Mg and Mg-Ca alloy of formula ratio to complete melting under conditions of vacuumizing and introducing inert gas; evenly stirring; adding pure Al of formula ratio; insulating heat until Al and Ca react completely; and cooling to obtain magnesium alloy containing Al2Ca, namely the grain refined type magnesium alloy. With respect to the grain refined type magnesium alloy prepared according to the method, the cast-condition crystallite dimension is 40 mu m which is obviously lower than the crystallite dimension of magnesium alloy in which the grain refiner is not added under the same condition, wherein the crystallite dimension of magnesium alloy without adding the grain refiner is 110 mu m.

Background technique [0002] Magnesium alloys have the advantages of low density, high specific strength, and good damping and vibration reduction performance. However, magnesium alloys have a wide solidification and crystallization temperature range, low thermal conductivity, serious grain coarsening tendency, and large volume shrinkage during solidification. , Defects such as shrinkage cavities, porosity, and hot cracks are prone to occur during the solidification process. [0003] Magnesium alloy grain refinement helps to reduce solidification defects, reduce the size of the second phase and improve casting defects, shorten the solution diffusion distance of the second phase particles at the grain boundary, and improve the efficiency of solution heat treatment, especially can sign...
