Embodiment 1

[0033] Using AZ91 magnesium alloy scrap as raw material, the experiments were divided into two groups.

[0034] The first group is the reference experiment. AZ91 Magnesium Alloy Scrap in SF 6 +N 2 Melt under the protection of mixed gas, heat to 650°C, add refining flux and stir, then keep warm for 30 minutes (flux refining + static refining), take samples from the middle of the crucible, and use quantitative metallography combined with EDS and XRD to detect magnesium oxide after solidification The inclusion content is 0.67%, and the inclusion content of magnesium oxide with a size smaller than 0.5mm is 0.54%.

[0035] The second group was operated using the method of the present invention. AZ91 Magnesium Alloy Scrap in SF 6 +N 2 Melt under the protection of mixed gas, heat to 650°C, add 0.2wt.% pure metal Sn to the upper part of the magnesium melt with a feeding tool and melt; stir for 5 minutes to fully react the added pure metal element Sn and magnesium oxide inclusions...

Embodiment 2

[0038] Using AZ61 magnesium alloy scrap as raw material, the experiments were divided into two groups.

[0039] The first group is the reference experiment. AZ61 Magnesium Alloy Scrap in SF 6 +N 2 Melt under the protection of mixed gas, heat to 650°C, keep it standing for 75 minutes (still refining), take a sample from the middle of the crucible, and after solidification, use the method of quantitative metallography combined with EDS and XRD to detect that the content of magnesium oxide inclusions is 0.82%, and the size is smaller than The magnesia inclusion content of 0.5mm is 0.58%.

[0040] The second group was operated using the method of the present invention. AZ61 Magnesium Alloy Scrap in SF 6 +N 2 Melt under the protection of mixed gas, heat to 650°C, add 0.6wt.% pure metal Cd to the upper part of the magnesium melt with a feeding tool and melt; stir for 15 minutes to fully react the added pure metal element Cd and magnesium oxide inclusions; keep warm And let it ...

Embodiment 3

[0043] Using AZ31 magnesium alloy scrap as raw material, the experiments were divided into two groups.

[0044] The first group is a reference experiment, the AZ31 magnesium alloy scrap in SF 6 +N 2 It was melted under the protection of mixed gas, heated to 650°C, kept standing for 120minn (stationary refining), and sampled from the middle of the crucible. After solidification, it was detected by quantitative metallography combined with EDS and XRD that the content of magnesium oxide inclusions was 1.23%, and the size was smaller than The magnesia inclusion content of 0.5mm is 0.84%.

[0045] The second group adopts the method of the present invention to operate: the AZ31 magnesium alloy scrap is in SF 6 +N 2 Melt under the protection of mixed gas, heat to 650 ° C, add the Mg-Sm master alloy to the upper part of the magnesium melt with a feeding tool to melt (the added Sm element content is 1.2wt.%); stir for 30 minutes, make the added element Sm and Magnesium oxide inclus...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for removing magnesium oxide inclusions in magnesium or magnesium alloy melt, and belongs to the technical field of metal melt purification. The method comprises the steps that in the smelting process of magnesium or a magnesium alloy, a metal element capable of a reduction reaction with magnesium oxide is added into the magnesium or magnesium alloy melt, so that the added metal element and the magnesium oxide inclusions are subjected to the reduction reaction to generate metal oxide and magnesium with the density greater than that of the magnesium or the magnesium alloy; and the newly generated metal oxide is settled to a furnace bottom by standing, so that the purpose of purifying the magnesium or magnesium alloy melt is achieved. According to the methodfor removing the magnesium oxide inclusions in the magnesium or magnesium alloy melt, the content of the magnesium oxide inclusions in the magnesium or magnesium alloy melt can be effectively removed,and in particular to small-size magnesium oxide (the size is less than 0.5 mm) which cannot be removed in the prior art, the removing effect of the magnesium alloy inclusions is good, so that the quality of the magnesium or the magnesium alloy is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal melt purification, in particular to a method for removing magnesium oxide inclusions in magnesium or magnesium alloy melts. Background technique [0002] Magnesium and its alloys have low density, high specific strength and specific stiffness, high damping and shock absorption performance, excellent thermal conductivity and electromagnetic shielding, good casting and machining performance, and rich resource support, becoming the most potential metal One of the materials, it has broad application prospects in ground vehicles, aerospace, 3C products and other fields. [0003] From the perspective of the whole life cycle, the production of magnesium and its alloy raw material ingots (including semi-continuous ingots required for plastic processing), casting production and remelting of waste magnesium must involve smelting operations, that is, it is necessary to use magnesium or magnesium alloys to melt...
