Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal polishing, and in particular to an environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid and a polishing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Titanium alloys are generally in need of polishing treatment because they are damaged and contaminated during processing and transportation, resulting in scale, rust, oil stains, and sandblasting residues. Polishing fluid is a special solution for micro-finishing the surface of titanium alloys, which can improve the surface quality of titanium alloy workpieces. Existing polishing fluids mostly use the dissolution, mechanical stripping, and reduction effects of inorganic acids to improve the surface properties of titanium alloys. However, inorganic acids such as hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid not only volatilize and are harmful to the human body during use, but also aluminum-iron-titanium and other abrasives are polluted by heavy metals during post-treatment. Oxidants such as nitrates are directly discharged after use, which also causes great eutrophication pollution to water bodies. In order to avoid damage to the water ecology, the cost of post-treatment such as ion exchange has to be increased, which hinders the promotion of titanium alloy technology.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a low-toxic, environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid and a polishing method thereof, which can achieve better surface roughness improvement and gloss improvement effects while using environmentally friendly green raw materials, and have lower weight loss and water pollution. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention aims to provide an environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid and a polishing method thereof.

[0005] In one aspect, the present invention provides an environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid, wherein the environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid is composed of the following components:

[0006] 77-87% by weight of plant extract, 2-6% by weight of 1g natural sponge fragments, 2-4% by weight of 3g bamboo chips and the balance of pure water;

[0007] The preparation method of the plant extract:

[0008] Take 82-90% of fresh lemon fruit, 5-8% of bayberry leaves and the rest of papaya fruit, cut into 1 cm 3 The pieces are put into a flash extractor, and one times the mass of 85% ethanol aqueous solution is added. The extraction speed is 4000r / min and then filtered through a 100-mesh filter to obtain a coarse filtration extract; the coarse filtration extract is reduced pressure and concentrated at 45-53°C and a vacuum degree of 800mbar to 0.2 times the mass of the coarse filtration extract to obtain the plant extract.

[0009] Furthermore, the mass fraction of the plant extract is 83%.

[0010] Furthermore, the mass fraction of the natural sponge fragments is 4%.

[0011] Furthermore, the mass fraction of the bamboo chips is 3%.

[0012] Furthermore, the mass fraction of the lemon fruit is 88%.

[0013] Furthermore, the mass fraction of the bayberry leaves is 6%.

[0014] Furthermore, the crude filtration extract is concentrated under reduced pressure at 51° C. and a vacuum degree of 800 mbar to 0.2 times the mass of the crude filtration extract.

[0015] On the other hand, the present invention provides a polishing method of the environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid as described above, wherein the polishing method of the environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid is:

[0016] Step 1: A titanium alloy plate with a surface roughness of 300 nm and a surface gloss of 350 GU after being polished with 10×5×0.5 cm sandpaper of TC4 grade is washed with pure water, blown dry, and then placed in a PP pickling tank, and the environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid is poured into the PP pickling tank to immerse the titanium alloy plate and stir evenly;

[0017] Step 2: Heat the temperature of the environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid to 55-62°C, replace the environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid every 1 hour under 40KHz, 2500W ultrasonic action, after cleaning for 3 hours, take out the titanium alloy plate, wash it twice with pure water, and then dry it at 60°C for 1 hour to complete polishing.

[0018] Furthermore, in the step 2, the temperature of the environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid is heated to 59°C.

[0019] The present invention can bring the following beneficial effects:

[0020] Generally speaking, higher temperatures can increase the number and activity of hydrogen ions ionized by the acid solution, thereby increasing the rate of the redox reaction and increasing the solubility of titanium ions in the acid solution, thereby macroscopically improving the chemical polishing effect; however, the commonly used chemical polishing solutions for titanium alloys, hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid, do not use higher process temperatures due to their violent reactions, active properties and high volatility. For example, Wang Jianchao et al. adopted a pickling process of 15~35°C and 1~2min in "Pickling Process for TC4 Titanium Alloy Before Welding", and used corrosion inhibitors to avoid excessive corrosion; the present invention creatively uses milder plant-derived acids such as citric acid, and while being environmentally friendly, achieves chemical polishing through ultrasonic assistance, increased reaction temperature and prolonged reaction time, while using bayberry leaves and papaya fruits to take into account both corrosion inhibition and a stable reaction environment.

[0021] J.Mol. Liq. found in "Walnut shell extract as a sustainable, efficient and green corrosion inhibitor for low-carbon steel in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution: detailed atomic-level calculation and electrochemical study" that coumaric acid, ferulic acid, syringic acid, vanillic acid, juglone and myricetin attached to the surface of iron metal help prevent corrosion and can form a protective layer over a long period of time; the present invention is boldly designed to extract myricetin from bayberry leaves to achieve mild corrosion inhibition of titanium alloy without hindering polishing, and the feasibility has been verified experimentally.

[0022] The core idea of ​​the present invention is to utilize milder plant-derived acids such as citric acid, and realize chemical polishing by ultrasonic assistance, increasing the reaction temperature and prolonging the reaction time while being environmentally friendly. At the same time, extracts of bayberry leaves and papaya fruits are used to take into account both corrosion inhibition and stabilizing the reaction environment, ultimately achieving lower surface roughness, higher gloss, lower weight loss and lower water pollution.

[0023] The present invention uses citric acid and other organic acid substances extracted from lemon fruits to corrode and remove the oxide layer on the surface of the titanium alloy and reduce the roughness. At the same time, the oxidizing property of the organic acid substances themselves can form a passivation oxide film to avoid excessive corrosion. The phenolic compounds with antioxidant properties extracted from papaya fruits control the oxidation rate of organic acids while protecting the activity of organic acids extracted from lemon fruits. Furthermore, biopolysaccharides such as cellulose in the plant extract of the present invention can play the role of a dispersant and improve the stability of the polishing liquid system.

[0024] The natural sponge fragments and bamboo pieces of the present invention have a hardness of one low and one high. With the frequency-converting ultrasonic wave-assisted cleaning of the present invention, while the natural sponge fragments peel off and take away the oxide layer damaged by the organic acid, the bamboo pieces polish the surface of the titanium alloy, exposing a larger area of ​​protrusions through more friction, making the surface of the titanium alloy smoother.

[0025] The component ratio of the plant extract, natural sponge fragments and bamboo pieces of the present invention is unique, and the corrosion effect is poor when the plant extract is less, and the mechanical polishing effect is poor when the natural sponge fragments and bamboo pieces are less; the component ratio of the lemon fruit, bayberry leaf and papaya fruit of the present invention is unique, and the oxidation corrosion effect is poor when the lemon fruit is less, and the system stability is poor when the bayberry leaf and papaya fruit are less; the temperature of the reduced pressure concentration of the present invention protects the activity of organic acids and phenols while removing part of the water and volatile substances; the use temperature of the environmentally friendly titanium alloy polishing liquid of the present invention improves the corrosion and polishing effects while avoiding the decrease of the biological activity of the polishing liquid or the instability of the system to produce agglomeration precipitation.

[0026] Under the above cooperation, the oxide film on the surface of titanium alloy is continuously dissolved, and the passivation oxide film is continuously formed. The microscopic raised parts of the surface are dissolved first, and the dissolution rate is greater than the dissolution rate of the concave parts; and the dissolution of the oxide film and the formation of the oxide film are always carried out at the same time, but the rates are different, achieving the dual effects of chemical corrosion and mechanical grinding, and as a result, a better surface roughness improvement effect and surface peeling effect are achieved while using environmentally friendly materials.
