Problems solved by technology

When the Mg-10Gd-3Y-Zr alloy is used to produce small-sized castings, hot crack defects often appear at the thin-walled parts, resulting in the scrapping of the castings; At the corner, the casting often breaks directly due to thermal cracking. It can be seen that the high thermal cracking tendency seriously limits the application of this high-strength heat-resistant magnesium alloy.
It can be seen from the above that reducing the oxidation inclusions and ensuring the purification of the melt can improve the hot cracking resistance of the alloy; reducing the content of Gd and Y elements can also reduce the hot cracking tendency of the alloy, but the reduction of heavy rare earth elements Gd and Y will Seriously damage the strength and high temperature resistance of the alloy

Abstract

The invention discloses a high-strength casting magnesium alloy with low hot cracking tendency and a preparation method for the high-strength casting magnesium alloy. The magnesium alloy is prepared from the following components in percentage by weight: 8-10wt.% of Gd, 2-4wt.% of Y, 0.1-1.5wt.% of Ce-rich mixed rear earth RE, 0.1-1.5wt%.% of Ag, 0.1-1wt.% of Ca, 0.3-0.7wt.% of Zr, less than 0.02wt.% of impurity elements Si, Fe, Cu and Ni, and the balance of Mg. The magnesium alloy disclosed by the invention is obtained by smelting as well as follow-up solid-solution and ageing thermal treatment (T6 treatment). In case of guaranteeing the room-temperature high-temperature performances of the Mg-Gd-Y-series magnesium alloys, the thermal cracking resistance in an alloy casting process is greatly improved, and therefore, the high-strength casting magnesium alloy is more suitable for producing thin-wall, complex-structured and large and medium-sized structural components with light-weight and high-strength requirements, and has a wide industrial application prospect.
