Abstract

The invention provides an Al-M-B grain refiner for casting an Al-Si alloy and a preparation method thereof. The Al-M-B refiner for casting the Al-Si alloy is composed of the components by mass: 85.0-96.0% of Al, 3.5-10.0% of M and 0.5-5.0% of B; the Al-M-B refiner contains refined particle phase MAl3 and MB2. The Al-M-B grain refiner is prepared by a fluoride salt method with Al blocks, K2TiF6 powder, Nb powder and KBF4 powder as raw materials. The Al-M-B alloy is prepared by melting. The prepared Al-M-B refiner can refine the grain size of alpha-Al in a high-silicon aluminum alloy to 700 microns or less, optimally to 200 microns or less; the amount of Nb is reduced and the cost of raw materials is reduced; the Al-M-B refiner has durable performance and is not easy to settle down and fail,and the refinement effect can still be less than 350 microns after heat preservation is performed for 2 h; the preparation method has the advantages of simple equipment conditions required for preparation and simple operation, and is suitable for industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a metal material additive and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a refiner for casting aluminum-silicon alloys and a preparation method thereof, which is applied in the technical field of aluminum alloy smelting. 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 5% Si), the main reason is that silicon elements interact with titani...
