Problems solved by technology

[0004] (1) Domestic and foreign laser 3D aluminum alloys are mainly Al-12Si and AlSi10Mg, the strengthening effect mainly depends on grain refinement, the printing strength usually does not exceed 400Mpa, and the mechanical strength is low
[0005] (2) and the elongation rate is lower than 5%, although heat treatment can increase the elongation rate to 12%, the grain growth leads to a significant decrease in tensile properties (<280MPa)
[0006] (3) At present, there are reports in the literature that laser 3D printing of 2xxx aluminum alloys and 7xxx aluminum alloys produces a large number of cracks, resulting in low performance and unable to meet practical applications.

Abstract

The invention discloses high strength Al-Mg-Sc alloy powder, and a preparation method, application and 3D printing method thereof. The specific combination of the alloy powder has multiple strengthening mechanisms of nanometer precipitation strengthening, fine grain strengthening, solid solution strengthening and the like, and high strength and plasticity are achieved. The rare earth high strengthAl-Mg-Sc alloy powder is subjected to 3D printing, parts are free of cracks, the compactness degree is high, the tensile strength and the elongation percentage are far higher than those of AL-12Si and AlSi10Mg alloys for traditional 3D printing, and the problems that a traditional aluminum alloy is low in 3D printing strength and poor in elongation percentage, and the stretching performance and the elongation percentage cannot be improved at the same time are solved. The tensile strength of the parts formed by printing the high strength Al-Mg-Sc alloy powder can reach 523 MPa or above, and the elongation percentage can exceed 13%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of special materials for additive manufacturing (commonly known as 3D printing), and specifically relates to a high-strength Al-Mg-Sc alloy powder, its preparation method, its application in 3D printing and its 3D printing method. Background technique [0002] Aluminum alloys are widely used in lightweight structural parts due to their excellent high specific strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability. In the past 100 years, aluminum alloy components have been mainly formed by traditional methods such as plasticity, casting, welding, and mechanical connection. However, with the continuous improvement of the extremely high propulsion ratio of the engine, the lightweight design of aircraft structural parts poses a serious challenge to the forming method . Laser additive manufacturing technology is becoming an effective way to solve complex components of large aircraft, especially powder bed-based selec...
