Abstract

The invention provides an automobile lightweight aluminum matrix composite and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of metal matrix composites. The composite is made from the following raw materials: by weight part, 700-710 parts of Al-20Si intermediate alloy, 103-106 parts of industrial pure Mg, and 29-31 parts of Cu-14P intermediate alloy, wherein, the primary phase in the composite is Mg2Si accounting for the mass percentage of the composite by 20%. The invention further provides the preparation method for the automobile lightweight aluminum matrix composite. Thecomposite is high in tissue morphology and excellent in mechanical properties, the density of the composite is much lower than that of a traditional automobile engine cylinder and a cylinder sleeve material, the weight reduction effect is obvious, and the automobile lightweight aluminum matrix composite can serve as the lightweight composite to apply to the components such as an automobile enginecylinder and a cylinder sleeve.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal-based composite materials, and in particular relates to a lightweight aluminum-based composite material for automobiles and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Automobile lightweight is an important way and effective measure for automobile energy saving and protection. Experiments have shown that if the mass of the car is reduced by half, the fuel consumption will also be reduced by nearly half. At present, due to the needs of environmental protection and energy saving, the lightweight of automobiles has become the trend of the development of automobiles in the world. In recent years, my country's automobile production and ownership have shown a momentum of continuous growth, resulting in increasingly severe problems of energy consumption, safety and environmental protection. In order to solve the above three major problems and promote the sustainable development of the aut...
