Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of powder metallurgy, in particular to a preparation method of an aluminum matrix composite material with synergistic strengthening of grain boundary and intragranular. BACKGROUND

[0002] A significant limitation of the current aluminum alloy material system is the lack of heat resistance. Traditional high-strength aluminum alloys can usually only maintain their superior performance at temperatures below 100℃. Once the temperature rises above 200℃, their strength will rapidly decline. Even the Al-Si or Al-Cu series alloys designed to improve heat resistance, their strength is difficult to break through the 100MPa threshold at high temperatures of 350℃. On the other hand, aluminum alloys such as Al-Fe-V-Si that use dispersion strengthening technology can improve heat resistance, but their preparation process is extremely complex, and large-scale industrial production faces many challenges, limiting their widespread application in actual engineering. For key components that operate for a long time in extreme temperature conditions (200-400℃), such as aircraft structures, engine components, and high-efficiency heat sinks, they are currently mostly made of titanium alloys, stainless steels, and other high-temperature resistant materials. However, these materials, while meeting the strength requirements in high-temperature environments, often come with higher weights, posing a problem for lightweight design of equipment, and thus affecting further improvement and breakthroughs in overall performance indicators. Therefore, developing new, lightweight aluminum alloys with excellent heat resistance has become an important research direction for improving the performance of equipment in related fields.

[0003] Using nano ceramic particles as a strengthening phase can have very excellent thermal stability, thereby obtaining good high-temperature resistance. However, the introduced strengthening phase is mostly located at the grain boundary, which can play a role in pinning the grain boundary, but has very weak pinning effect on intragranular dislocations, causing a large number of dislocations to concentrate at the grain boundary during loading and leading to intergranular fracture, resulting in insufficient strength and toughness of the material. For example, through in-situ reaction of Al-TiO2, nano Al2O3 particles and Al3Ti particles can be introduced into the aluminum matrix. The nano Al2O3 particles can pin the aluminum grain boundary to make the material have high high-temperature strength. However, nano Al2O3 particles are not easy to enter the grain interior, resulting in the inability to pin intragranular dislocations, making it difficult to further improve high-temperature strength, and easily causing dislocations to concentrate near the grain boundary, causing intergranular cracking. In addition, Al3Ti particles are difficult to maintain nano size, and after coarsening, their effect on improving high-temperature strength is very low.

[0004] In summary, the current aluminum matrix composite material has the problems of poor strength-plasticity and insufficient high-temperature resistance. SUMMARY

It is to be noted that for the Al-TiO2 system, the present application adds nano Al2O3 powder in the raw material powder, further inhibits the reaction of Al and TiO2 through the process parameters, makes Al and TiO2 perform incomplete reaction during the sintering treatment to generate an amorphous Al2O3 layer on the surface of TiO2 particles to form the core-shell structure strengthening phase particle of amorphous Al2O3 coated TiO2, further promotes the core-shell structure strengthening phase particle of amorphous Al2O3 coated TiO2 to enter the grain interior through the plastic processing treatment, and makes the nano Al2O3 particles (namely, the nano Al2O3 powder in the raw material, referred to as the added nano Al2O3 particles) mainly distribute at the grain boundary during the ball milling mixing treatment and the plastic processing treatment (the whole preparation process) to play the intragranular-grain boundary synergistic strengthening, thereby improving the strength-plasticity and high temperature resistance of the aluminum matrix composite material. l2 O3 coated TiO2 to enter the grain interior, and during the ball milling mixing treatment and the plastic processing treatment (the whole preparation process), the nano Al2O3 particles (namely, the nano Al2O3 powder in the raw material, referred to as the added nano Al2O3 particles) mainly distribute at the grain boundary to play the intragranular-grain boundary synergistic strengthening, thereby improving the strength-plasticity and high temperature resistance of the aluminum matrix composite material.

[0105] Comparative Example 1

[0106] In Comparative Example 1, the average particle size of the TiO2 powder in the raw material powder is 150 nm, compared with Example 1.

[0107] The other steps and parameters are consistent with those in Example 1.

[0108] Here, because the average particle size of the TiO2 powder used in Comparative Example 1 is too large (it should be noted that the ball milling process has little effect on the size of the reinforcing phase, which is wrapped by aluminum powder), it is difficult for the core-shell structure reinforcing phase particles of amorphous Al2O3 coated TiO2 to enter the grain interior, and high strength and toughness cannot be achieved.

[0109] Comparative Example 2

[0110] In Comparative Example 2, the average particle size of the TiO2 powder in the raw material powder is 5 nm, compared with Example 1.

[0111] The other steps and parameters are consistent with those in Example 1.

[0112] Here, because the average particle size of the TiO2 powder in Comparative Example 2 is too small, the small TiO2 powder is prone to react with aluminum during the sintering process, and the core-shell structure reinforcing phase particles of amorphous Al2O3 coated TiO2 cannot be generated.

[0113] Comparative Example 3

[0114] In Comparative Example 3, the average particle size of the nano Al2O3 powder in the raw material powder is 150 nm, compared with Example 1.

[0115] The other steps and parameters are consistent with those in Example 1.

[0116] Here, because the average particle size of the nano Al2O3 powder is too large, the surface area is small, the Al-TiO2 reaction cannot be inhibited, and the core-shell structure reinforcing phase particles of amorphous Al2O3 coated TiO2 cannot be formed.

[0117] Comparative Example 4

[0118] Comparative Example 4

[0119] Other steps and parameters are consistent with Example 1.

[0120] Here, because the average particle size of the nano-Al2O3 powder is too small, it easily enters the grain interior during the ball milling process, and cannot inhibit grain boundary diffusion, so it is difficult to inhibit the Al-TiO2 reaction, and the core-shell structure of amorphous Al2O3-coated TiO2 strengthening phase particles cannot be formed.

[0121] Comparative Example 5

[0122] Comparative Example 5 prepared an aluminum matrix composite, compared with Example 1, the temperature of the hot extrusion treatment in Comparative Example 4 is 400°C.

[0123] Other steps and parameters are consistent with Example 1.

[0124] Here, because the temperature of the hot extrusion treatment is too low, the aluminum matrix is difficult to fully recrystallize during the extrusion treatment process, and the strengthening phase cannot enter the grain interior, so grain boundary-grain interior synergistic strengthening cannot be achieved.

[0125] Comparative Example 6

[0126] Comparative Example 6 prepared an aluminum matrix composite, compared with Example 1, the temperature of the sintering treatment in Comparative Example 6 is 550°C.

[0127] Other steps and parameters are consistent with Example 1.

[0128] Here, because the temperature of the sintering treatment in Comparative Example 6 is too low, in-situ reaction cannot be activated, and it is difficult to form the core-shell structure of amorphous Al2O3-coated TiO2 strengthening phase particles.

[0129] Comparative Example 7

[0130] Comparative Example 7 prepared an aluminum matrix composite, compared with Example 1, the temperature of the sintering treatment in Comparative Example 7 is 655°C.

[0131] Other steps and parameters are consistent with Example 1.

[0132] Here, because the temperature of the sintering treatment in Comparative Example 7 is too high, Al-TiO2 completely reacts, and it is difficult to form the core-shell structure of amorphous Al2O3-coated TiO2 strengthening phase particles.
