Problems solved by technology

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to address the deficiency of the existing magnesium alloy refining agent, and propose a composite purification flux for lanthanum-containing magnesium alloy and its production method. The loss of rare earth element lanthanum can reduce the content of harmful impurity element iron in the alloy, and also has a good purification function to remove non-metallic inclusions

Abstract

The present invention provides composite clarifying flux of La-containing aluminum alloy and its production process. The composite clarifying flux consists of magnesium chloride 30-50 wt%, sodium chloride 15-25 wt%, potassium chloride 15-25 wt%, calcium chloride 2-7 wt%, barium chloride 3-7 wt%, lanthanum carbonate 5-15 wt% and potassium teraborate 5-15 wt%. The composite clarifying flux has three effects, including inhibiting the loss of RE lanthanum of La-containing aluminum alloy during flux purification, effectively reducing the content of harmful Fe element in the alloy, and powerful adsorption and elimination of non-metal inclusion from the alloy. The composite clarifying flux has high chemical stability, low harmful gas content, easy adding, simple operation and low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lanthanum-containing magnesium alloy composite purification flux and a production method thereof, which are used for refining treatment of lanthanum-containing magnesium alloys and belong to the field of metal materials and metallurgy. Background technique [0002] Magnesium alloy has the advantages of low density, high specific strength and specific stiffness, good damping and electromagnetic shielding performance, and has become an important lightweight material in the automotive and electronics industries in recent years. As a common rare earth alloying element in magnesium alloys, lanthanum can enhance the bonding force between magnesium alloy atoms, reduce the atomic diffusion rate, and significantly improve the high temperature performance and casting performance of the alloy. Therefore, lanthanum-containing magnesium alloys have been widely used in recent years. [0003] However, because magnesium is easy to burn, even...
