Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the method for preparing aluminum-scandium alloys in domestic industry is mainly the method of preparing aluminum-scandium alloys by reducing aluminum-scandium (see patent ZL200410046915.2). This method can only prepare aluminum alloys with a scandium content of 1-3%, and the scandium yield is less than 88%. Due to the use of ammonium hydrogen fluoride as the fluorinating agent without further treatment, the production environment without protection is poor

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing an aluminum scandium alloy through thermal reduction of scandium fluoride. The method comprises the following steps: filling the raw material scandium fluoride and the aluminum into a graphite crucible, putting in a vacuum reactor, vacuumizing to -0.1 MPa, degassing under a low temperature, keeping the vacuum degree, warming and melting the aluminum, heating to the temperature of 1100-1350 DEG C, continuously stirring, controlling the temperature till the surface of the melt is clear, reducing the temperature and casting to obtain the aluminum scandium alloy. The method for preparing the aluminum scandium alloy is a scandium fluoride vacuum aluminothermic reduction method; the prepared aluminum scandium alloy is high in scandium content, controllable in scandium element, high in scandium converting yield of greater than 95%, and low in fluorine content of less than 200 ppm and the byproduct can be comprehensively recovered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal alloys, in particular to a method for preparing an aluminum-scandium alloy by aluminothermic reduction of scandium fluoride. Background technique [0002] Aluminum-scandium alloy is a high-performance aluminum alloy. There are several ways to improve the performance of aluminum alloys. Among them, microalloying, strengthening and toughening has been the frontier field of research on high-performance aluminum alloys in the past 20 years. The so-called microalloying strengthening and toughening usually refers to a technique of adding or compounding trace elements with a mass percentage of less than 0.5% to aluminum alloys to greatly improve the strength and toughness of the alloy. Scandium, as a transition group element and rare earth element, is added to aluminum and aluminum alloys, which can not only significantly refine the as-cast alloy grains, increase the recrystallization temperature to improv...
