Problems solved by technology

Critically saturated alloying elements will produce a large number of grain boundary precipitated phases. These phases have a "pinning" effect in the plastic forming process, resulting in a large number of original grain boundary residues, resulting in low elongation in the high direction, which is not suitable for manufacturing large thickness specifications above 40mm parts

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of metallic material engineering and relates to an aluminum-lithium alloy material and a forging method thereof. The aluminum-lithium alloy material comprises the alloy components of, by mass, 3%-4.2% of Cu, 0.2%-1.4% of Mg; 0.6%-1.5% of Li, 0-1% of Ag, 0.06%-0.15% of Zr, 0.2%-0.6% of Mn, 0-0.8% of Zn, 0.08% of Si or the less, 0.10% of Fe or the less and the balance Al and other impurities, wherein the mass of one of the other impurities is smaller than or equal to 0.05%, and the total mass of the other impurities is smaller than or equal to 0.15%. The forging method comprises the following steps of homogenization treatment and forging. According to the aluminum-lithium alloy material and the forging method thereof, the situation that a large number of grain boundary precipitation phases are generated by critical saturated alloy elements, and thus a large number of original grain boundary residues are caused can be avoided, the high elongation rate isincreased, and the requirement for manufacturing workpieces with the large thickness specifications of 40 mm or above is met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metal material engineering and relates to an aluminum-lithium alloy material and a forging method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to the addition of lithium element, aluminum-lithium alloy has obtained low density and high modulus characteristics, and has broad application prospects in aerospace, nuclear industry, transportation, sporting goods, weapons and other fields. In recent years, with the improvement of aluminum metallurgical equipment technology and metallurgical basic technology, the development trend of aluminum alloy is high purity, high performance and high alloying. The 500MPa aluminum-lithium alloy has been maturely applied in advanced fighter jets, large airliners and aerospace delivery equipment. The amount of alloying elements added to the current aluminum-lithium alloy is close to or exceeds the high-temperature critical saturation solid solution of aluminum solid solution. Criticall...
