Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of aluminum-lithium alloy surface treatment, and discloses an aluminum-lithium alloy micro-arc oxidation method and an electrolyte adopted by the same. Thealuminum-lithium alloy micro-arc oxidation method comprises three steps of pretreatment, micro-arc oxidation and aftertreatment. The adopted electrolyte comprises solute and a solvent, and comprisesthe following components including 10-20 g / L of sodium silicate, 6-10 g / L of strong base, 3-5 g / L of sodium tungstate and 0.5-1 g / L of an additive, and deionized water is used as the solvent. According to the aluminum-lithium alloy micro-arc oxidation method and the electrolyte, the content of the alkaline solute is increased, micro-arc oxidation is promoted to quickly form a film, and the time required by processing is shortened. The solution is good in stability, high in repeated utilization rate and low in cost of used raw materials, a film layer with a certain thickness and corrosion resistance can be prepared within a short time, after 600-hour complete soaking corrosion, the surface film layer is still complete, and an alloy matrix is kept intact; and an electrochemical test shows that the corrosion current density can be reduced by nearly two orders of magnitudes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of surface treatment of aluminum-lithium alloys, and relates to a micro-arc oxidation technology aimed at improving the corrosion resistance of Al-Cu-Li alloys, in particular to a micro-arc oxidation method for aluminum-lithium alloys and the electrolyte used therein . Background technique [0002] Compared with traditional aluminum alloys (without lithium), aluminum-lithium alloys have lower density, higher elastic modulus and specific strength, and lower fatigue crack growth rate, and have broad applications in the aerospace industry. Application prospects. However, the higher activity of Li element leads to higher local corrosion susceptibility of Al-Li alloys such as intergranular corrosion and pitting corrosion, which becomes the main cause of corrosion failure of its structural parts, so it is necessary to use appropriate surface treatment to improve its corrosion resistance. [0003] Among many sur...
