High-strength and high-conductivity rare-earth copper alloy and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a high-strength and high-conductivity rare-earth copper alloy and a preparation method of the high-strength and high-conductivity rare earth copper alloy. The high-strength and high-conductivity rare-earth copper alloy belongs to the technical field of an alloy material. Silver, phosphorus and a trace of rare-earth elements are added on the basis of a traditional Cu-Cr-Zr alloy. The copper alloy is prepared from the following components in percentage by weight: 0.2-1.0% of chrome, 0.1-0.4% of zirconium, 0.1-0.2% of silver, 0.02-0.03% of phosphorus, 0.02-0.16% of the rare-earth elements, and the balance of copper and inevitable impurity elements; the rare-earth elements are one or two or three of cerium, iridium and neodymium; a material is carried out processes such as hot forging, solid-solution treatment, cold rolling and aging treatment; prepared copper alloy has a good overall performance; tensile strength is greater than 550MPa; hardness is greater than 150HV; an elongation rate is greater than 10%; electric conductivity is greater than 80% IACS (International Annealed Copper Standard), and a softening temperature is greater than 450 DEG C. A requirement of the material for an electronic industrial field on the performance of the copper alloy can be better met; the high-strength and high-conductivity rare-earth copper alloy can be used for a lead frame material for a large-scale integrated circuit, a contact line of an electric car or an electric locomotive, an electrode alloy connector and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a copper-based alloy and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a high-strength and high-conductivity rare earth copper alloy and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of alloy materials.
