Abstract

A method for preparing an aluminum-yttrium intermediate alloy by using high intensity ultrasonic comprises the following steps of: (1) firstly, putting a pure alumium ingot in a crucible and heating until the pure alumium ingot is melted, covering rare earth yttrium particles having the diameter of 20-100 microns with aluminium-foil paper and pressing the rare earth yttrium particles into the pure alumium melt, and preserving heat for 30-40 minutes at a temperature of 725-745 DEG C, wherein the content of the rare earth yttrium is 10-15% of the total weight; (2) applying intermittent high intensity ultrasonic at the place away from 10-15 mm under the liquid level of the alloy melt, wherein the intensity of the ultrasonic is 0.3-0.5 kw / cm<2>; (3) applying the ultrasonic for 8-15 minutes in total, wherein the time of applying the high intensity ultrasonic each time is 30-50 seconds and the intermittent time is 30-50 seconds; and (4) reducing the temperature of the alloy melt to 700-710 DEG C for refining and impurity removal and then performing casting. The method provided by the invention is capable of effectively avoiding the burning loss of the rare earth, stable in rare earth content and low in energy consumption. Besides, the method is simple in process, safe and reliable, convenient to operate, and capable of guaranteeing even alloy components and reducing segregation.
