AI Technical Summary
Existing arc-wire additive manufacturing aluminum alloy materials have low performance at high temperatures, especially in hypersonic vehicle structural components where high-temperature load-bearing capacity is insufficient, and traditional methods are not effective in incorporating ceramic powder to improve high-temperature performance.
Aluminum alloy wire with specific composition is used, and magnetic silicon carbide (SiC) micro powder is added. The SiC micro powder is then uniformly distributed using electromagnetic stirring technology to form fine grains and a uniform structure. During the additive manufacturing process, the SiC micro powder is embedded in the aluminum matrix, which hinders grain boundary and dislocation slip and improves high-temperature performance.
It achieves a significant increase in the tensile strength of aluminum alloy wire at high temperatures, with a tensile strength exceeding 400MPa after holding at 200℃ for 30 minutes, which is superior to existing technologies. Furthermore, the processing is smooth, the grains are fine and uniform, and the arc additive manufacturing is stable.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of metallic materials, specifically relating to a high-temperature resistant aluminum alloy wire suitable for arc welding additive manufacturing and its preparation method. Technical Background
[0002] Hypersonic vehicles possess advantages such as long range, high speed, and strong penetration capabilities. During flight, the surface temperature of structural components rises due to air friction, requiring these components to have strong load-bearing capacity at high temperatures—that is, excellent high-temperature performance. Hypersonic vehicle structural components are coated with heat-resistant coatings, and the weight of these coatings is generally greater than the weight of the structural components themselves. Therefore, improving the high-temperature performance of the structural components helps to achieve overall weight reduction, thereby increasing the vehicle's range. The heat resistance of materials is a key factor in improving the high-temperature load-bearing capacity of structural components.
[0003] Hypersonic aircraft structural components are typically irregularly shaped and thin-walled, making them difficult to manufacture using traditional methods. Arc-wire additive manufacturing technology, employing a "discrete-stacking" principle, transforms complex three-dimensional components into two-dimensional structures, significantly reducing the difficulty of producing such complex components. Furthermore, arc-wire additive manufacturing technology offers advantages such as rapid design response, low overall manufacturing costs, and the ability to achieve digital and intelligent manufacturing. Whether in the product development or mass production phase, producing shell-type structural components using arc-wire additive manufacturing technology offers significant advantages.
[0004] However, the high-temperature performance of aluminum alloys currently suitable for arc-wire additive manufacturing is generally low. Taking Al-Cu alloy 2319 as an example, after being formed by arc-wire additive manufacturing, the room temperature tensile strength of its aggregate reaches 470 MPa, but the mechanical properties after holding at 200℃ for 30 minutes are only 300 MPa, a significant decrease. Research has found that high-strength aluminum alloys generally improve their strength by precipitating transition phases. These transition phases are metastable and cannot exist stably at high temperatures. They rapidly coarsen and grow during high-temperature processes, causing a significant reduction in the alloy's mechanical properties. Therefore, introducing a phase that exists stably at high temperatures into aluminum alloys is an effective way to improve high-temperature performance. Researchers have attempted to add ceramic powder to aluminum alloys to improve high-temperature performance, but due to the density and powder segregation issues of ceramic powder, it is difficult to effectively incorporate the ceramic powder into the aluminum alloy, making it unsuitable for practical production. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-temperature resistant aluminum alloy wire suitable for arc welding additive manufacturing.

After heat treatment, the additively formed deposit exhibits fine and uniform grains, with dispersed reinforcing phases, resulting in excellent room temperature and high-temperature performance.

[0012] The silicon carbide (SiC) described in this invention is magnetic silicon carbide (SiC) micro powder with a particle size of 1-3 micrometers, which can be purchased commercially.
[0013] The present invention also provides a method for preparing high-temperature resistant aluminum alloy wire suitable for arc-fused-wire additive manufacturing, comprising the following steps:
[0014] (1) The raw materials are proportioned according to the formula. Except for silicon carbide (SiC), the other raw materials are smelted and alloyed in an electromagnetic induction furnace to form a melt.
[0015] (2) After the alloy melting is completed, silicon carbide (SiC) is added to the melt and dispersed into the melt by electromagnetic stirring of the electromagnetic induction furnace.
[0016] (3) The melt of dispersed silicon carbide (SiC) obtained in step (2) is transferred into a casting furnace, and wire rods with a diameter of 9-12 mm are prepared by continuous casting and extrusion under inert gas protection and electromagnetic stirring.
[0017] (4) Finished wire materials are obtained through forging, drawing, rolling, scraping and packaging processes.
[0018] Preferably, in step (1), the voltage for melting and alloying in an electromagnetic induction furnace is 400-800V and the time is 100-150min.
[0019] Preferably, in step (2), silicon carbide (SiC) is wrapped in aluminum foil and pressed into the melt. This method can improve the yield of SiC and make the amount added controllable.

During the S3 continuous casting and extrusion process for preparing wire rod, the pressure of the inert gas is 7-11 kPa. The argon pressure is automatically adjusted according to the weight of the melt in the casting furnace to ensure consistent casting speed.

[0024] The present invention also provides the application of the aluminum alloy wire described herein in wire additive manufacturing.
[0025] The present invention relates to heat-resistant aluminum alloy wires suitable for additive manufacturing using arc-fused wires. The magnetic SiC micropowder used in this invention can be well distributed in the melt under electromagnetic stirring, exhibiting excellent wetting properties with the aluminum matrix. During the arc-fused wire additive manufacturing process, the magnetic SiC micropowder melts with the wire and enters the aggregate, becoming embedded in the aluminum matrix. When the alloy is subjected to load, the SiC micropowder can hinder the slippage of grain boundaries and dislocations, improving the alloy's strength. During high-temperature processes, the SiC micropowder remains unchanged, maintaining its strengthening effect, thus significantly improving the high-temperature performance of the alloy. Compared to existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0027] The method for preparing the filament of this invention utilizes electromagnetic stirring to uniformly distribute magnetic SiC micropowder within the filament, avoiding the agglomeration problem of ceramic micropowder caused by traditional production methods and enabling industrial application. During additive manufacturing, the filament melts and forms an aggregate. Al₂Cu and Al₂O₃ are formed with alloying elements such as Cu, Mn, Ti, and Zr. 12The reinforcing phases, such as Mn2Cu, Al3Ti, and Al3Zr, collectively improve the room-temperature mechanical properties of the material, and these properties remain unchanged after high-temperature processes, significantly enhancing the material's high-temperature performance. Currently, the Al-Cu alloy prepared by this invention exhibits a tensile strength exceeding 400 MPa after holding at 200°C for 30 minutes, making it the best-performing arc-fused wire additive manufacturing aluminum alloy material reported to date (at 200°C for 30 minutes).
