BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0028] Figure 1 The present invention is a process flow chart of a method for preparing aluminum alloy profiles for battery trays of new energy vehicles. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] The present invention provides a new energy vehicle battery tray aluminum alloy profile, which includes the following components in mass percentage: Mg 0.5wt%-0.8wt%, Si 0.4wt%-0.6wt%, Fe 0.1wt%-0.35wt%, Ti 0.01wt%-0.08wt%, Sc 0.01wt%-0.09wt%, Mn≤0.1wt%, Cu≤0.1wt%, Zn≤0.1wt%, total impurity amount≤0.15wt%, and the balance is Al.

[0031] The present invention is optimized on the basis of 6 series AL-MgSi alloy to obtain an aluminum alloy profile with appropriate strength and good extrusion precision.

[0032] The magnesium element is used to improve the strength and hardness of the alloy, and silicon forms a Mg2Si phase with magnesium to further enhance the strength of the alloy. Preferably, the Mg component is 0.6wt% to 0.7wt%, and the Si component is 0.45wt% to 0.55wt%.

[0033] Iron exists as an impurity element, and its content should be controlled at a relatively low level. Preferably, the Fe component is 0.15 wt% to 0.25 wt%.

[0034] Titanium can refine grains and control recrystallization structure, which helps to improve the extrusion accuracy of the finished product. Preferably, the Ti component is 0.02wt% to 0.07wt%.

[0035] The present invention creatively adds Sc element to the formula, which can not only refine the grains, but also improve the strength and extrusion accuracy of the aluminum alloy, form dispersed particles in the aluminum alloy, and effectively improve the extrusion toughness of the aluminum alloy. Preferably, the Sc component is 0.02wt% to 0.08wt%.

[0036] The addition of manganese can neutralize the harmful effects of iron and improve the mechanical properties of the alloy. Preferably, Mn≤0.05wt%.

[0037] Adding a small amount of copper can improve the strength of the alloy, but it will also reduce its corrosion resistance. Preferably, Cu≤0.05wt%.

[0038] Zinc can increase the fluidity of aluminum alloys and help improve the extrusion properties of the alloys. Preferably, Zn≤0.05wt%.

[0039] Accordingly, if Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for preparing an aluminum alloy profile for a battery tray of a new energy vehicle, comprising the following steps:

[0040] S1. Provide aluminum ingots;

[0041] The ingredients are 100% aluminum ingots with a purity of 99.80%.

[0042] S2, smelting the aluminum ingot to obtain aluminum liquid;

[0043] In one embodiment, the furnace is heated to a measured furnace temperature ≥ 710°C and then continuously baked for 1-2 hours to evaporate the water molecules in the furnace. The aluminum ingots are then evenly distributed into the furnace and neatly arranged. After the furnace door is closed, the furnace is heated to 730-750°C for smelting to convert solid aluminum into liquid aluminum.

[0044] Preferably, a refining slag remover is placed in the 720-750°C liquid aluminum, and high-purity argon inert gas is continuously introduced into the middle and lower parts of the liquid aluminum in the furnace to remove slag and slag, and the ventilation pressure is controlled according to the rolling height of the aluminum liquid ≤30cm, and the process lasts for 30 to 40 minutes. The present invention does not limit the refining slag remover, and it is a commercially available slag remover.

[0045] S3, adding alloy components to the aluminum liquid to meet a preset formula to obtain a first aluminum liquid;

[0046] The preset formula includes the following components in terms of mass percentage: Mg 0.5wt%-0.8wt%, Si 0.4wt%-0.6wt%, Fe 0.1wt%-0.35wt%, Ti 0.01wt%-0.08wt%, Sc 0.01wt%-0.09wt%, Mn≤0.1wt%, Cu≤0.1wt%, Zn≤0.1wt%, total impurity amount≤0.15wt%, and the balance is Al.

[0047] The first aluminum liquid is sampled and tested. When sampling, aluminum liquids from no less than three zones in the smelting furnace should be tested and averaged for comparison. The intermediate alloy components added in proportion according to the test meet the design value and are qualified.

[0048] S4, the first aluminum liquid is subjected to refining treatment and static treatment to obtain a melt;

[0049] In one embodiment, the refining treatment includes: adding a refining promoter to the second aluminum liquid at 730°C to 745°C for refining; the refining time is 25min to 30min. In one embodiment, the refining promoter includes the following components in terms of mass percentage: KCl 35-39%, NaCl 25-31%, Na3AlF6 11-24%, Na2SO4 7-13%, and CaCO3 4-10%. NaCl and KCl can spread well on the surface of the melt, break and adsorb the oxide film on the surface of the melt, thereby improving the refining effect. Na3AlF6 can adsorb and dissolve aluminum oxides and react with the melt to form gaseous fluorides. These gaseous fluorides can separate the aluminum oxide film from the aluminum melt through mechanical action, thereby improving the refining effect. Na2SO4 can reduce the melting point of the melt, increase the fluidity of the melt, and react with the oxides therein to form soluble sulfates, thereby removing the oxides from the melt. CaCO3 can reduce the content of harmful elements such as sulfur and phosphorus in the melt during the refining process. In one embodiment, the amount of the refining accelerator added is 0.1wt% to 0.15wt%. The addition of the refining accelerator helps to accelerate the homogenization of the melt composition and the good promotion of the liquid structure. After the refining treatment, the sample is taken again for testing to confirm that the composition meets the design standards, and then enters the static state. In one embodiment, the static temperature of the static treatment is 720℃ to 740℃, and the static time is 30min to 40min.

[0050] S5, the melt is cast to obtain an ingot;

[0051] In one embodiment, the casting temperature of the casting process is 690°C to 720°C.

[0052] In one embodiment, Sc-containing aluminum titanium boron wire is added during the casting process; the amount of Sc-containing aluminum titanium boron wire added is 0.01wt% to 0.1wt%. The present invention adds Sc-containing aluminum titanium boron wire during the casting process, which can not only further refine the grains and improve the mechanical properties of the aluminum alloy, but also improve the extrusion toughness and ductility of the aluminum alloy, making it more suitable for preparing heavy truck battery pack trays, and greatly improving the extrusion accuracy of special-shaped cavity structures. Preferably, the amount of Sc-containing aluminum titanium boron wire added is 0.02wt% to 0.08wt%.

[0053] S6, the ingot is homogenized, extruded, quenched and aged to obtain a finished product;

[0054] In one embodiment, the temperature of the homogenization treatment is 545° C. to 555° C., and the holding time is 10 h to 12 h. Under the above homogenization treatment conditions, the aluminum alloy grains can be significantly refined, and the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance can be improved.

[0055] In one embodiment, the extrusion temperature is 515°C to 525°C, and the extrusion speed is 6mm / min to 13mm / min. Extrusion at too high a temperature will result in coarse grains, and its tensile strength and hardness will be reduced; while low-temperature extrusion will aggravate the formation of coarse grain rings, resulting in deterioration of the mechanical properties of the aluminum profile. Preferably, the extrusion temperature is 520°C to 524°C. Excessively fast extrusion speed may cause the material to not have enough time to flow evenly, forming an incomplete or defective profile. Preferably, the extrusion speed is 7mm / min to 12mm / min.

[0056] Aging temperature is an important factor affecting the aging hardening effect of aluminum alloys. At a suitable aging temperature, the precipitation phase in the aluminum alloy can be formed uniformly and stably, thereby improving the strength, hardness and corrosion resistance of the alloy. In one embodiment, the aging treatment temperature is 180°C to 190°C, and the holding time is 7h to 9h.

[0057] The present invention is further described below with reference to specific embodiments.
