Problems solved by technology

However, these two types of magnesium-lithium alloys are dual-phase structures formed by α-Mg and β-Li, and Zn and Y or Zn and Gd are added at the same time, resulting in high alloy density, which cannot reflect the absolute low density of magnesium-lithium alloys. Advantages, but also prone to over-aging softening phenomenon

Abstract

The invention discloses an ultralight high-strength magnesium lithium alloy containing low Y and a preparation method thereof. The alloy is prepared from the following components in percentage by mass: 12wt.% to 17wt.% of Li, 0.5wt.% to 6wt.% of Al, 0wt.% to 1.5wt.% of Ag, 0.2wt.% to 3wt.% of Y, 0wt.% to 1wt.% of C and the balance of Mg and unavoidable impurity. The C of the alloy is added in theform of a MgCO3-CaCO3 mixture; an Al4C3 indissoluble mass point can be formed as a nucleation core; a crystal grain is obviously refined; the Al and the Y are added into the magnesium lithium alloy; ahigh-temperature stable strengthening phase Al2Y can be separated out in a matrix; the element Ag is introduced to be capable of effectively ameliorating the overaging softening phenomenon of the magnesium lithium alloy. The preparation method of the magnesium lithium alloy comprises two stages of smelting and heat treatment, wherein the smelting stage is carried out in conditions of vacuumization and a gas shield, and the heat-treatment stage comprises two-stage solution treatment and aging treatment.
