Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of textile machinery manufacturing, in particular to a wear-resistant and long-life aluminum alloy material for textile machinery and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Aluminum is a silvery-white light metal, a main group element in the third period of the periodic table, with atomic number 13. It has an FCC face-centered cubic lattice and no allotropic transformations. It has a melting point of 660°C and a boiling point of 2327°C. Aluminum is one of the most abundant elements in the earth's crust, ranking after oxygen and silicon. Aluminum has a low density of only 2.7g / cm 3 , soft texture, good ductility, and good electrical and thermal conductivity. Aluminum easily reacts with oxygen in the air to produce a thin aluminum oxide layer, which further protects the surface of the substrate. However, the poor mechanical properties of pure aluminum limit its practical application. Therefore, in order to cope with the shortcomings of pure aluminum, it is often necessary to add some specific elements to aluminum to form an alloy phase to enhance its mechanical properties, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Aluminum alloys are widely used in daily life and industrial fields due to their low density, high strength, good corrosion resistance, good processing and forming properties, and good welding properties. However, due to the defects of aluminum alloys such as soft texture, poor wear resistance, and rapid decline in corrosion resistance when serving in harsh corrosive environments, their service life is reduced.

[0005] In the above process, annealing can not only control the grain size of the aluminum alloy, but also reduce the number of voids and defects in the aluminum alloy, which helps to improve the strength and durability of the aluminum alloy. Annealing can also improve the formability and processing properties of the aluminum alloy, making the subsequent laser shot peening treatment smoother.

[0006] During the multi-stage laser shot peening process, the shock wave generated by the direct interaction between the laser and the aluminum alloy material is the primary shock wave, and the shock wave transmitted to the sample surface through the metal mesh is the secondary shock wave, thus achieving multi-stage laser shot peening of the aluminum alloy. Shot peening can not only cause grain refinement, improve the mechanical strength of the aluminum alloy, and reduce the adverse effects of subsequent micro-arc oxidation on the fatigue resistance of the aluminum alloy, but also improve the chemical reaction activity of the aluminum alloy surface through grain refinement, thereby promoting the micro-arc oxidation process.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. The present invention prepares a wear-resistant and long-life aluminum alloy material for textile machinery by sequentially pretreating, micro-arc oxidation, gel-loaded sealing, and epoxy resin coating the aluminum alloy material. The pretreatment before micro-arc oxidation includes annealing, multi-stage laser shot peening, and light polishing. The three treatment methods promote each other, not only ensuring the performance of the aluminum alloy to the greatest extent, but also better improving the effect of subsequent micro-arc oxidation treatment. Furthermore, the multi-stage shock wave induced by the pulsed laser produces a multi-level heterogeneous gradient structure on the sample surface. In actual process, the surface structure of the aluminum alloy can be controlled by adjusting the mesh size of the stainless steel metal mesh, thereby better improving the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy.

[0026] 2. In the process of micro-arc oxidation of aluminum alloy, potassium fluorotitanate and niobium carbide nanoparticles are added to the base liquid solution. The titanium dioxide sol generated by potassium fluorotitanate can effectively seal the surface pores. At the same time, titanium dioxide participates in the electrochemical reaction, resulting in an increase in the thickness and operating voltage of the micro-arc oxidation film, accelerating the growth rate of the micro-arc oxidation film, and improving the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy while reducing the energy consumption of the micro-arc oxidation treatment. Furthermore, the niobium carbide nanoparticles in the base solution migrate toward the anode under the action of an external electric field and form an aggregate layer on the anode surface, so that the niobium carbide particles adhere to the surface of the oxide film of the micro-arc oxidation, accelerating the growth of the micro-arc oxidation film, and forming a dense, uniform, and stable micro-arc oxidation film, thereby further improving the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy and extending its service life.

[0027] 3. The present invention encapsulates the bifunctional composite material with silica gel to obtain silica composite gel, and loads the silica composite gel on the micro-arc oxidized aluminum alloy. The silica composite gel can not only seal the micropores and cracks on the surface of the micro-arc oxidized aluminum alloy, but more importantly, the silica composite gel in the micropores is closer to the metal substrate of the aluminum alloy, which helps to adsorb the bifunctional composite material on the surface of the aluminum alloy, and chelate with the metal ions in the aluminum alloy to form a protective film in the defect area, giving the coating system better corrosion resistance, lubrication and self-healing properties. In addition, the silica composite gel can also be evenly dispersed in the epoxy resin coating to improve the density of the epoxy resin coating, thereby providing better protection for the aluminum alloy, obtaining a wear-resistant and durable aluminum alloy material, so as to achieve better application in textile machinery.

[0073] The test results in Table 1 show that the wear-resistant, long-life aluminum alloy materials for textile machinery prepared in Examples 1-3 of the present invention exhibit excellent wear resistance. A comparison of Comparative Example 1 with Example 3 shows that multi-stage laser shot peening of the pretreated aluminum alloy using a 316 stainless steel mesh as an auxiliary structure can improve its wear resistance. A comparison of Comparative Examples 2 and 3 with Example 3 shows that the addition of potassium fluorotitanate and niobium carbide particles to the base solution can enhance the wear resistance of the aluminum alloy by improving the effect of micro-arc oxidation. A comparison of Comparative Examples 4 and 5 with Example 3 shows that loading silica gel onto the aluminum alloy can improve its wear resistance, and the silica composite gel encapsulated with the dual-functional composite material has a more significant effect on the performance of the aluminum alloy.

[0074] 2. Corrosion resistance test: Electrochemical analysis was performed using a three-electrode electrochemical cell system (CHI660E), including a working electrode (aluminum alloy sample), a reference electrode (saturated calomel electrode), and an auxiliary electrode (platinum sheet). Before the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) test, the working electrode should be immersed in the corrosive solution for at least 1 hour to ensure the stability of the open circuit potential (OCP). Next, EIS was performed in the frequency range of 100 kHz to 0.01 Hz with a corrosion potential deviation of 5 mV. In addition, the EIS data were fitted to a suitable equivalent circuit to obtain the polarization resistance value. The test results are shown in Table 2:

A comparison of Comparative Example 1 with Example 3 shows that multi-stage laser shot peening of the pretreated aluminum alloy using a 316 stainless steel mesh as an auxiliary structure can improve its corrosion resistance.

The silica composite gel encapsulated with the dual-functional composite material can further improve the corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy due to the encapsulated dual-functional composite material.
