Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving the performance of a heat-treatable reinforced aluminum alloy friction stir welding joint. The method mainly comprises the following process steps that firstly, an aluminum alloy material needing to be welded is subjected to solid solution heat treatment, the solid solution temperature is (465-545) + / -5 DEG C, the heat preservation time is 4-8 hours, and after water quenching, the aluminum alloy material is placed in a low-temperature environment to be stored; friction stir welding equipment is adopted for welding the aluminum alloy, rapid cooling treatment is adopted at the welding seam position, it is guaranteed that alloy elements are subjected to solid solution in an aluminum matrix as many as possible while recrystallized grains are restrained from growing, and a supersaturated solid solution is obtained; after friction stir welding is completed, a whole welding part is subjected to peak aging heat treatment, the aging treatment temperature is (150-190) + / -5 DEG C, and the heat preservation time is 7-20 hours. According to the method, dissolution and growth of an aging precipitated phase at a welding joint part can be avoided, softening of the welding joint is inhibited, the strength and plasticity of the welding joint are improved, and finally the friction stir welding joint which is compact in structure, has the strength reaching 85% or above of the strength of base metal and is good in comprehensive performance is obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of friction stir welding and relates to a method for improving the performance of heat-treatable aluminum alloy friction stir welding joints. Background technique [0002] With the development of lightweight technology, high-strength aluminum alloys are more and more widely used in automobiles and aerospace equipment, and the connection of aluminum alloys is also facing more challenges. The friction stir welding process belongs to the solid phase joining technology. The heat input during the welding process is small and the welding temperature is low, which can avoid defects such as coarse precipitates, hole defects, embrittlement and cracking caused by fusion welding. Friction stir welding is a severe plastic deformation process, and the material will undergo dynamic recrystallization at the welded joint. [0003] 2000 series, 6000 series and 7000 series aluminum alloys are heat treatable aluminum alloys. ...
