Problems solved by technology

However, the rare earth-rich compound phase of the magnesium alloy that is generally directly added to the magnesium alloy for smelting and casting is generally coarse and irregular in shape, and the rare-earth-rich phase is mostly distributed at the grain boundary, which seriously reduces the concentration of rare earth elements. Strengthening effect on magnesium alloy

example 1

[0036] Mg-6Zn-3RE-1.4Y rare earth magnesium alloy was prepared by using pure Zn (99.9%, mass fraction, the same below), pure Mg (99.9%), Mg-RE master alloy, Mg-Y master alloy, etc. as raw materials. The melting and refining process is as follows: all tools in contact with the alloy melt are painted in advance, and tools, raw materials, and sampling water-quenched quartz tubes are all preheated at 200°C for about 1 hour. Turn on the resistance furnace, add magnesium ingots when the crucible is preheated to about 150°C, and feed N when the temperature reaches 300°C 2 +SF 6 Protective gas, adjust the temperature to 700°C, add pure metal Zn, Mg-RE master alloy, and Mg-Y master alloy in sequence after the magnesium ingot is completely melted, adjust the temperature to 750°C, feed high-purity Ar gas for refining for 10 minutes, and degas scum, and then remove the scum. Use the temperature control device to keep the temperature of the alloy liquid at about 690-700°C. Take an appro...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of metal material preparation and casting formation, and relates to a method for refinement of a rare earth-rich phase of a rare earth-magnesium alloy. Rare earth in the rare earth-magnesium alloy comprises one, two or more of 0.5-4% of RE (which is mixture of Ce and La and comprises 50-70% by mass of Ce and the balance La), 0.5-2% of Y, 2-3% of Nd and 1-5% of Gd. The method comprises pouring a magnesium alloy liquid with the temperature 0-40 DEG C higher than that of a liquidus line into a slurry container pre-heated to a preset temperature, dropping an amplitude-change pole to a position 1-25mm lower than a metal liquid surface, simultaneously, starting ultrasonic vibration, carrying out ultrasonic vibration for 1-8min, then controlling a metal melt temperature 5-50 DEG C lower than a liquidus line temperature and carrying out molding on the metal melt subjected to ultrasonic vibration to obtain a magnesium alloy part. Crystal grain size and rare earth-rich phase size are greatly reduced than size of the microstructure before ultrasonic vibration. The method can be used for a rare earth-magnesium alloy pulping process, a follow-up rheocasting process and a rare earth-magnesium alloy part molding process.
