It is widely used in aerospace, electronic communications, instrumentation, light industry, machinery, chemical industry, coal and other fields. With the development of aerospace, electronic communications and other industries, higher requirements are put forward for the performance of elastic copper alloy materials. Traditional beryllium copper materials have the disadvantages of low resistance to high temperature softening and low resistance to stress relaxation, which seriously affects the safety of material use. In order to solve the problems of low resistance to high temperature softening and low resistance to stress relaxation. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for preparing a composite beryllium-copper alloy wire by spray codeposition rolling.
[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a method for preparing a composite beryllium copper alloy wire by spray codeposition rolling, comprising the following steps: (1) Spray co-deposition rolling: Beryllium and copper with a good ratio are melted and TiB2 particles are sprayed, and then a deposition layer is obtained in the groove of the rolling mill roller, and then continuous rolling is performed to obtain the beryllium copper alloy wire billet; (2) Stretching: subjecting the beryllium copper alloy wire blank in (1) to a solid solution heat treatment and repeatedly drawing to obtain a wire blank; (3) Multi-mode high-precision stretching: The wire blank in (2) is subjected to multi-mode high-precision stretching in multiple sets of stretching dies to obtain a wire blank; (4) Continuous annealing: The wire blank in (3) is subjected to solution treatment and then continuously annealed to obtain beryllium copper microwires.
[0005] Preferably, the particle size of the sprayed TiB2 particles is 500-800 nm.
[0006] Preferably, the mass percentage of beryllium in (1) is 1.8-2.0%, and the balance is copper. After the raw materials are melted and allowed to stand, the impurity content is controlled to be below 0.06% through degassing and impurity removal processes.
[0007] Preferably, before starting smelting in (1), inert gas argon is introduced to ensure that the argon completely fills the atomizing chamber.
[0008] Preferably, the smelting temperature in (1) is 1100-1300°C, the relative air flow velocity of the TiB2 particles is 50-200 m / s, and the horizontal incident angle is 45-60°.
[0009] Preferably, after smelting in (1), a deposition layer is obtained in the groove of the rolling mill roller, and continuous rolling is performed with a rolling pressure of F=40-60KN and a rolling speed of 10-18m / min to prepare a beryllium copper alloy wire billet of Φ100-200mm.
[0010] Preferably, the specific steps of (2) are: subjecting the beryllium copper alloy wire blank in (1) to a solution heat treatment at a temperature of 780-880°C, followed by water quenching, and then repeatedly drawing for 3-6 times to obtain a wire blank of Φ0.3-0.6 mm.
[0011] Preferably, the specific steps of (3) are as follows: the wire blank in (2) is subjected to multi-mode high-precision stretching in 5-10 sets of stretching dies at a stretching speed of 5-20 m / s to obtain a wire blank of Φ0.03-0.075 mm.
[0012] Preferably, the specific steps of (4) are: subjecting the wire blank in (3) to a solution treatment at a temperature of 800-900°C, then aging at 350°C for 2h, and continuously annealing at 800°C, to finally obtain beryllium copper microwires of Φ0.03-0.075mm.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a method for preparing a composite beryllium copper alloy wire by spray codeposition rolling, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. The preparation method of the composite beryllium copper alloy wire material by spray co-deposition rolling adds hard phase TiB2, regulates the grain size, improves the high temperature softening temperature and stress relaxation resistance, and adds TiB2 powder with a size of 500-800nm by spray co-deposition. Since TiB2 is a high temperature resistant ceramic particle, it can enhance the phase thermodynamic stability, thereby improving the high temperature softening temperature of the beryllium copper alloy. TiB2 as a nucleation particle can generate fine and uniformly dispersed grains, increase grain boundaries, hinder the movement and slip of dislocations, and further improve the stress relaxation resistance of the beryllium copper alloy.
[0014] 2. The preparation method of the spray co-deposition rolled composite beryllium copper alloy wire has high strength and wear resistance and good comprehensive performance. Since the TiB2 particles have high hardness and high thermal conductivity, the strength and thermal conductivity of the beryllium copper alloy are directly improved. At the same time, because the added TiB2 particles have the effect of fine grain strengthening, the grain size is greatly reduced, and the strength and wear resistance of the beryllium copper alloy are increased. The TiB2 particle-reinforced metal matrix composite material prepared by spray deposition has uniform distribution of particle reinforcement phase, low oxygen content and inclusion contamination, and good comprehensive performance.
[0015] 3. The preparation method of the spray co-deposition rolling composite beryllium copper alloy wire reduces the process flow and saves production costs. The material is directly formed into a wire billet of Φ100~200mm through the spray co-deposition rolling method, which reduces the process flow, omits the transportation, rolling, sintering and other processes, and greatly saves production costs.
