Abstract

The invention relates to a process for homogenizing aluminum alloy, in particular to a process for homogenizing high-quality 6061 aluminum alloy for a reaction chamber liner of a plasma etcher, belonging to the technical field of non-ferrous metal heat treatment technique. The 6061 aluminum alloy comprises 0.4-0.6 wt% of Si, 0.8-1.2 wt% of Mg, 0.15-0.4 wt% of Cu, 0.01-0.35 wt% of Cr, less than 0.15 wt% of Fe, less than 0.15 wt% of Mn, less than 0.15 wt% of Ti and the balance of Al. The process provided by the invention comprises the following steps: carrying out furnace-heating on 6061 aluminum alloy cast ingots, keeping the temperature at 560+ / -5 DEG C for 9 hours, discharging, and carrying out water quenching at room temperature. The homogenizing treatment can enhance the structural homogenity of the aluminum alloy matrix, redissolve the Mg2Si phase, and nodulize the iron-containing phase, thereby enhancing the effect of anodic oxidation and the corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy after anodic oxidation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an aluminum alloy homogenization process method, in particular to a high-quality 6061 aluminum alloy homogenization process method for the reaction chamber lining of a plasma etching machine, and belongs to the technical field of nonferrous metal heat treatment processes. Background technique [0002] The semiconductor equipment industry has extremely strict requirements on aluminum alloy materials. For example, the lining of the reaction chamber used in the etching machine will be bombarded and corroded by high-density plasma during the working process. Corrosion of strong corrosive media such as hydrobromic acid, hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid and ammonia water. Therefore, aluminum alloy parts must be subjected to strict surface treatment to form a high-performance dense oxide film, and one of the key factors determining the quality of the oxide film is the microstructure and properties of the aluminum alloy base material. ...
