Abstract

The invention provides a fine-grained zinc-based alloy for a die and a preparation process thereof. The invention is characterized in that the fine-grained zinc-based alloy for the die is composed of a matrix alloy, intermediate alloys, an alterant and a scouring agent and comprises 12.5 to 16.5% of Al, 8 to 12.5% of Cu, 0.01 to 0.05% of Mg, 0.10 to 0.25% of Ti, 0.01 to 0.03% of B, 0.3 to 0.7% of Zr, 1 to 3% of Si, 0.4 to 0.8% of Mn, 0.2 to 0.8% of Re and 0.4 to 0.5% of ZnCl2, with the balance being Zn, wherein Re comprises, by mass, 45 to 55% of Ce, 10 to 20% of La, 7 to 15% of Y and 4 to 10% of Gd. The preparation process comprises the following steps: fusing the alloys in a crucible resistance furnace or a medium-frequency induction melting furnace; preparing a semi-solid zinc-based alloy through electromagnetic stirring; carrying out casting after temperature drops to 550 DEG C; and carrying out water cooling or air cooling. Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages: the fine-grained zinc-based alloy for the die has the following mechanical properties at normal temperature, i.e., sigma b of 492.6 MPa, delta s of 1.42% and HBR of 168; even at a high temperature of 200 DEG C, sigma b reaches 216 MPa and delta s reaches 26%, completely according with the requirement of a common injection die for the mechanical property sigma b of 120 to 150 MPa at the temperature of 200 DEG C.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal materials, and relates to a fine-grain zinc-based alloy for a mold, in particular to a preparation process for a fine-grain zinc-based alloy for a mold. Background technique [0002] The ternary alloy of zinc, aluminum and copper with zinc as the matrix, plus a small amount of magnesium is called zinc-based alloy, and the mold made of this material is called zinc-based alloy mold. Due to the good fluidity of the zinc-based alloy, the mold making is fast; the fine lines on the model can be directly reproduced and formed, which saves a lot of machining workload; the machining efficiency of the zinc-based alloy mold is high, the surface finishing performance is good, and the processing time is reduced. It is only 1 / 2 of steel; compared with mold steel materials, the mold-making cycle of zinc-based alloys can be shortened by 30%-40%; the cost of zinc-based alloy molds is generally 30%-40% lower than sim...
