Abstract

A method for improving the hardness of an Al-Si alloy mainly comprises the following steps: putting the Al-Si alloy into a resistance furnace, heating to 515-525DEG C, maintaining the temperature for 120-150min, discharging the alloy from the furnace, and cooling with water, wherein the alloy comprises 4.0-6.0wt% of Si, 0-2.0wt% of Cu, 0.3-0.7wt% of Mg, 0.2-0.7wt% of Mn, and the balance Al; and putting the Al-Si alloy subjected to solid solution treatment into a cubic press, adjusting the pressure to 1-3GPa, heating to 180-200DEG C, maintaining the temperature for 120-150min, and carrying out power-off pressure-maintaining natural-cooling to room temperature. The method has the advantages of simple process, convenient operation, low cost and stable quality; and the hardness of the Al-Si alloy processed through the method is greatly improved, is 60-68% higher than that of the unprocessed Al-Si alloy, and is 8-13% higher than that of the Al-Si alloy processed through routine methods.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metal materials and relates to a method for improving the hardness of an aluminum-silicon alloy. Background technique [0002] Aluminum-silicon alloy has good castability, weldability, corrosion resistance and certain mechanical properties, and is one of the most widely used aluminum alloys. However, the alloy has low density, and sometimes its hardness cannot meet the performance requirements of some workpieces. Therefore, improving the hardness of Al-Si alloy has important practical significance. At present, the methods to improve the hardness of Al-Si alloy are mainly the optimization of alloy composition, purification treatment, refinement modification treatment and heat treatment (solution, aging treatment). The above-mentioned method is easy to be applied in industry, but it is still limited to improve the hardness of aluminum-silicon alloy. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present i...
