Problems solved by technology

But TiB 2 The density of the reinforcement phase 4.52g / cm3 is much higher than that of the aluminum melt, and the aluminum alloy melt is larger than 0.2-0.5 micron TiB 2 Reinforced particles will undergo rapid sedimentation and aggregation in a short period of time, making it difficult for this type of material to be mass-produced at the production site
[0007] At present, there is a lack of a casting aluminum-silicon alloy that is suitable for existing equipment and can be produced on a large scale, and whose tensile strength is not lower than 90MPa or higher at a temperature above 350°C

Abstract

The invention discloses an aluminum-silicon alloy material for an engine piston. The aluminum-silicon alloy material comprises the following elements in percentage by mass, 12.0%-15.0% of Si, 2.0%-4.5% of Cu, 0.5%-1.5% of Mg, 0.2%-0.5% of Mn, 2.2%-4.5% of Ni, 0.1%-0.6% of Zr, Al, incidental elements and impurities. The microalloying incidental elements are one or more of Er, Hf, Nb, Nd, Sc and Ti, and the total adding amount of the microalloying incidental elements meets the condition that (Er + Hf + Nb + Nd + Sc + Ti) wt% is larger than or equal to 0.1% and smaller than or equal to 0.9%. The content of each inevitable impurity element in the aluminum-silicon alloy is less than or equal to 0.05 wt%, and the total content is less than or equal to 0.15 wt%; and the high-temperature performance of the alloy exceeds that of the existing ZL109 alloy, and particularly, the high-temperature strength at 350 DEG C reaches up to 98 MPa.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metal materials, in particular to the technical field of aluminum-silicon alloy materials for engine pistons. Background technique [0002] At present, high-strength diesel engines are developing toward high power and high load, and aluminum pistons are important reciprocating components of internal combustion engines, and their performance directly affects the performance and reliability of high-strength diesel engines. [0003] As the engine develops towards high power density, the combustion pressure and operating temperature of the piston are getting higher and higher, which puts forward higher requirements on the heat resistance of aluminum-silicon alloys such as high-temperature strength, linear expansion coefficient and volume stability. The widely used ZL109Al-Si alloy material is still poor in high temperature performance at 350°C (not yet required by the existing national standard) and above, and its over...
