Abstract

The invention discloses an Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner for casting aluminum-silicon alloy as well as a preparation method thereof and application thereof. The Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner for casting aluminum-silicon alloy is prepared from the following components in percentage by weight: 96.20-98.90wt% of Al, 0.30-1.30wt% of Ti, 0.50-2.0wt% of Nb, and 0.30-0.50wt% of B. The Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner comprises a refining particle phase MA13 and MB2 with mass percentage of 2-4% and particle dimension smaller than 20 microns, wherein M is Ti or Nb. The preparation method for the Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner for casting aluminum-silicon alloy comprises the following steps of: a, weighing raw materials; b, smelting a Ti-Nb-B intermediate alloy; and c, smelting the Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner. A method of applying the Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner to casting aluminum-silicon alloy comprises the following steps of: a, melting the aluminum-silicon alloy; b, adding the Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner; and c, casting. The Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner prepared by the preparation method can be used for refining the crystalline grain size of alpha-Al in the aluminum-silicon alloy to be 150-450 microns, so that Nb content is greatly reduced, raw material cost is reduced,and components and structure uniformity of the prepared Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner are guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of aluminum alloy smelting, and in particular relates to an Al-Ti-Nb-B refiner for casting aluminum-silicon alloys and a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Cast aluminum-silicon alloys are widely used in industry due to their good mechanical properties and excellent casting properties. Refining the grains of the alloy can obtain a dense alloy structure, and at the same time reduce the tendency of hot cracking and segregation of the casting, and reduce the porosity, thereby improving the overall performance of the alloy. The most commonly used and effective refinement method is to add grain refiner, among which Al-5Ti-B refiner has been widely used. However, this refiner is not suitable for refining aluminum-silicon alloys with high silicon content (greater than 5wt.% Si). The main reason is that silicon interacts with titanium elements to form toxic titanium silicides, which mak...
