Abstract

The invention relates to a lead-free free-cutting brass alloy. The lead-free free-cutting brass alloy is prepared from the following raw materials in percent by weight: 26.0-38.0% of zinc, 0.2-3.5% of bismuth, 1.0-2.1% of manganese, 0.5-2.0% of tin, 0.3-2.0% of nickel, 0.1-0.4% of rare earth lanthanum, less than 0.1% of impurity and 52.0-71.6% of copper. The concrete preparation method comprises the steps of weighing the raw materials in a formula, sequentially placing the raw materials into a intermediate-frequency smelting furnace, heating up and degassing, deslagging and standing, smelting, casting, and carrying out deformation hot working treatment. Microhardness of the lead-free free-cutting brass alloy disclosed by the invention is 130-150HV, tensile strength is more than 450MPa, and elongation is more than 20%; thickness of a dezincification layer in a dezincification corrosion test is 150-200mu m and is far below 350-400mu m, namely the thickness of the dezincification layer of a lead brass alloy; and recycled leftover materials of a nickel-tin-plated copper plate are selected as raw materials in the preparation method disclosed by the invention, and cost is low, thus having energy-saving and environment-friendly significances.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of non-ferrous metal processing, and in particular relates to a lead-free free-cutting brass alloy and a preparation method thereof, including formula design and melting, continuous casting and rolling (or continuous casting and extrusion) of the lead-free free-cutting brass alloy and other preparation techniques. Background technique [0002] Lead brass alloy has extremely good cutting performance, good corrosion resistance and processing performance, and more importantly, its price is much cheaper than ordinary copper alloy, the cost is low, and the production process is simple. Therefore, lead-brass alloys have long been the most economical and practical alloys and have been widely used in electronic appliances, household appliances, drinking water devices, aerospace, machinery, automobiles, instruments, hardware and other fields. Lead hardly dissolves in the brass alloy, and mainly exists as an independ...
