Problems solved by technology

However, the inventors found that the strength of the magnesium alloy profile is only about 320MPa under the existing process conditions, which is still significantly lower than that of high-strength steel and aluminum alloy. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the cross-sectional size of the profile to meet the material quality requirements and ensure the structure when manufacturing passenger car structural parts. long-term service security
However, increasing the size of the profile will make it impossible to fully utilize the low-density advantages of magnesium alloys, and greatly weaken the weight reduction effect of ZK60 magnesium alloys
At the same time, increasing the size of magnesium alloy profiles will also significantly increase the difficulty of profile manufacturing and seriously increase the cost of material manufacturing
Therefore, it is difficult to solve the core problems of the popularization and application of ZK60 magnesium alloy in new energy buses and the goal of lightweight vehicles

Embodiment 1

[0036] The method for preparing ZK60 wrought magnesium alloy comprises the following steps:

[0037] 1) Melting: heating pure magnesium, pure zinc and Mg-Zr master alloy to 700-750°C for 20-30 minutes. After the alloy is completely dissolved, stir fully to make the raw material fraction uniform, then keep it for 20-30 minutes, and then cast it into an ingot to obtain ZK60, wherein the content of the main elements in the alloy is: 5.8wt% Zn, 0.5wt% %Zr, the balance is Mg

[0038] 2) Machining: sawing the ingot, machining the wagon to a suitable size.

[0039] 3) Solution treatment: heat the ZK60 magnesium alloy of appropriate size in step 2) at 400° C. for 10 hours, and then quench to room temperature.

[0040] 4) Pre-aging treatment: The solution-treated ZK60 magnesium alloy is subjected to a stepwise pre-aging process. The process is divided into three stages: aging at 120°C for 60 minutes, aging at 180°C for 30 minutes and aging at 240°C for 15 minutes.

[0041] 5) Extrus...

Embodiment 2

[0044] In this embodiment, the difference between the preparation method of the ZK60 deformed magnesium alloy and the embodiment 1 is that in step 3) the pre-aging treatment is not performed after the solution treatment, and the extrusion treatment is directly performed. The metallographic microstructure of the prepared ZK60 wrought magnesium alloy is as follows: figure 1 As shown in b, its SEM structure is as figure 2 As shown in b, the test results of its mechanical properties are shown in Table 2.

Embodiment 3

[0046] In this example, the difference between the preparation method of the ZK60 wrought magnesium alloy and Example 1 is that a one-stage pre-aging treatment is performed after the solution treatment in step 3), and the pre-aging treatment process is: aging at 240°C for 15 minutes, and then extrusion pressure treatment. The metallographic microstructure of the prepared ZK60 wrought magnesium alloy is as follows: figure 1 As shown in c, its SEM structure is as figure 2 As shown in c, the test results of its mechanical properties are shown in Table 2.
