Abstract

The invention discloses an Er-contained quasi-crystal reinforced magnesium-lithium alloy and a preparation method thereof. The magnesium-lithium alloy comprises, by weight, the following components: 10-16% of Li, 0.5-6% of Zn, 0.2-4% of Er, 0-0.6% of Zr and the balance being Mg and inevitable impurities. The preparation method of the quasi-crystal reinforced magnesium-lithium alloy comprises the following steps of two processes of smelting and heat treatment, wherein the smelting process comprises the following steps of: melting, stirring, standing and preserving heat and casting; and the heattreatment process comprises solution treatment and aging treatment. According to the invention, Zn and Er are introduced to form a quasi-crystalline phase, the mass ratio of Zn and Er is 1:1-8:1, thestrength and the thermal stability of the magnesium-lithium alloy can be obviously improved, and trace ZrCl4 mixed salt ZrCl4-LiCl-LiF-CaF2 is added into the alloy, so that the alpha-Mg grains are obviously refined.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a magnesium-lithium alloy in the field of metal structural materials and a preparation method thereof, in particular to an Er-containing quasicrystal strengthened magnesium-lithium alloy and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to the low density of Li (0.543g / cm 3 ), adding Li to the magnesium alloy can further reduce the weight of the alloy. As the metal structure material with the lowest density, magnesium-lithium alloy has broad application prospects in aerospace, military industry, 3C products and other fields. [0003] Magnesium-lithium alloys have the obvious advantages of light weight, but their low absolute strength and poor thermal stability limit their applications. In traditional magnesium alloys, the quasicrystalline phase is an effective strengthening phase. Y and Gd elements are added in traditional magnesium rare earth alloys and magnesium lithium alloys. However, there is no resea...
