Problems solved by technology

[0005] The existing process for synthesizing rare earth magnesium alloys by molten salt electrolysis has the following two disadvantages: first, it is necessary to redesign the electrolytic furnace or electrolytic cell for changes in raw materials and process conditions; The rare earth content usually exceeds 20%, and the prepared alloy is deposited at the bottom of the molten salt, and the rare earth addition amount of the rare earth magnesium alloy used in the production process is relatively low, generally not exceeding 10%, so the rare earth magnesium alloy prepared according to this method is subsequently Remelting is also required to meet device requirements for rare earth content

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a rare earth magnesium alloy, comprising: adopting a magnesium electrolytic cell, using a mixture of a magnesium electrolytic molten salt system and a rare earth chloride as an electrolyte molten salt, and the content of the rare earth chloride in the electrolyte molten salt is 2wt% ~15wt%, at 650°C~720°C, the electrolyte molten salt is electrolyzed, and at the same time, anhydrous magnesium chloride and rare earth chloride with a weight ratio of (1.5~11):1 are added to the magnesium electrolyzer. A rare earth magnesium alloy is formed on the upper part of the electrolyte molten salt. In the present invention, by adjusting the weight ratio of magnesium electrolytic molten salt system and rare earth chloride in the electrolyte molten salt and the ratio of anhydrous magnesium chloride and rare earth chloride added in the electrolysis process, the direct preparation of rare earth magnesium alloy in the existing electrolytic magnesium factory is realized. At the same time, the rare earth content in the prepared rare earth magnesium alloy does not exceed 10%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of magnesium alloys, in particular to a preparation method of rare earth magnesium alloys. Background technique [0002] Magnesium alloy is recognized as a green engineering material in the 21st century. Magnesium alloy has the advantages of light weight, high specific strength, rich resources, good processing performance and convenient recycling. It is widely used in aerospace, automobile manufacturing and electronic products. Traditional magnesium alloys mainly include magnesium-aluminum alloy and magnesium-manganese alloy, etc. These alloys have poor heat resistance and corrosion resistance, which restricts their development. [0003] Compared with traditional magnesium alloys such as magnesium aluminum alloys, the heat resistance, corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance of rare earth magnesium alloys are significantly improved, which effectively expands the application range of magnesium alloys. The prior a...
