Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in Mg-Zn alloys, the aging strengthening phase MgZn 2 Precipitation along the basal plane of the magnesium matrix cannot effectively hinder the dislocation slip on the basal plane, so the aging strengthening effect is limited, which limits the effect of improving the strength of the alloy; moreover, the alloy is added with the noble metal element Zr as a grain refiner, alth

Abstract

The invention provides an aging strengthening type magnesium alloy and a heat treatment process thereof. The alloy comprises, by weight, 6.8-8.0% of zinc, 0.8-1.5% of copper and 0.8-1.5% of manganese, with the balance being magnesium and inevitable impurities. According to the heat treatment process, an alloy ingot is subjected to two-stage homogenization treatment under the condition of (330-360) DEG C * (4-8)h+(400-420) DEG C * (16-20)h and is subjected to thermal forming at the temperature of 360-400 DEG C, a finished product is subjected to solution treatment at the temperature of 400-430 DEG C for 2-4 hours, and two-stage aging is performed under the condition of (80-100) DEG C * (3-5)h+(175-190) DEG C * (15-18)h after water cooling, so that an aging strengthening effect much better than that of a commercial high-strength ZK60 alloy can be achieved, and alloy strength can be improved obviously. The alloy does not contain heavy metal and is low in cost; the limitation that aging strengthening of conventional commercial magnesium alloys is achieved through MgZn2 phases is broken through; through proper heat treatment process, precipitated phases in the alloy can be precipitated in a small dispersed mode and the ageing strengthening potential of the alloy can be developed to the greatest extent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a magnesium alloy material and a treatment process, in particular to an aging-strengthened magnesium alloy and a heat treatment process thereof. It belongs to the technical field of metal materials. Background technique [0002] Magnesium is by far the lightest commercial metal structural material, showing great application potential in 3C, aerospace, transportation and other fields. However, the development and application of magnesium alloys is far behind that of light metal aluminum. One of the main reasons is that the absolute strength of magnesium is insufficient. Aging strengthening is an effective means of strengthening metal materials, which can greatly improve the strength of metal materials. The current commercial high-strength magnesium alloys include Mg-Zn-Zr series (typical alloy ZK60) and Mg-RE series (typical alloy WE43), and the means of strengthening magnesium is aging strengthening. [0003] However, in M...
