DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The present application provides a high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire and its preparation method and application, which are used to solve the technical problem in the prior art of the lack of Al-Mg-Si alloy materials with both high conductivity and high strength.

[0025] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solution of this application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0026] In view of the fact that ordinary Al-Mg-Si alloys cannot have both high conductivity and high strength, and there is currently a lack of high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wires, the present application provides a high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire. The raw material composition of the high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire includes: Al: 97.90~98.50wt%, Mg: 0.60~0.80wt%, Si: 0.55~0.70wt%, Be: 0.10~0.16wt%, Ni: 0.15~0.24wt%, Ca: 0.05~0.08wt% , B: 0.01~0.10wt%; Al, Mg, Si, Be, Ni, Ca, and B in the raw materials are introduced through aluminum ingots, magnesium ingots, Al-Si master alloys, Al-Be master alloys, Al-Ni master alloys, Al-Ca master alloys, and AlB3, respectively. Al, Mg, and Si in the raw materials are the main components of the high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire provided in this application. The high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire provided in this application belongs to the Al-Mg-Si alloy in the aluminum alloy, and the B in the raw materials is mainly boron. The invention also introduces Be, Ni, and Ca into the raw materials at the same time. When two raw materials are selected from Be, Ni, and Ca and added, the tensile strength of the aluminum alloy wire is 315-328 MPa and the conductivity is 53.6%-55% IACS. When Be, Ni, and Ca are added simultaneously, the tensile strength of the aluminum alloy wire is 342 MPa and the conductivity is 55.2% IACS. This shows that the addition of Be, Ni, and Ca to the aluminum alloy wire can be used for multi-scale particle modification and microalloying element composite strengthening. The added Be and Ca elements can significantly improve the conductive properties of the alloy. Be and Ni elements can significantly strengthen the alloy. In addition, the Al3Ni phase precipitated by the Ni element in the aluminum alloy pins dislocations and grain boundaries, hindering the movement of dislocations and grain boundaries, thereby improving the comprehensive properties of the aluminum alloy such as tensile strength and conductivity. Therefore, while improving the mechanical properties such as tensile strength of the aluminum alloy wire, the conductivity of the aluminum alloy wire can also be improved, overcoming the current lack of Al-Mg-Si alloy materials with both high conductivity and high strength.

[0027] Preferably, for the addition amounts of Be, Ni, and Ca in a high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire provided in the present application, the addition mass ratio of Be, Ni, and Ca is controlled to be 2:3:1.

[0028] Preferably, the present application provides a corresponding preparation method for high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire, the preparation method comprising: first melting aluminum ingots, magnesium ingots, Al-Si master alloys, Al-Be master alloys, Al-Ni master alloys, and Al-Ca master alloys, and then adding AlB3 boronization treatment, followed by refining, and using a continuous casting mold and a continuous rolling mill for continuous casting and rolling to obtain an aluminum alloy rod; then performing multi-stage solid solution heat treatment with increasing temperature, multi-pass drawing treatment, and multi-stage aging heat treatment with increasing temperature.

[0029] In the preparation method of the high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire provided in the present application, the multi-stage solution heat treatment with increasing temperature is three solution heat treatments in sequence; the first two solution heat treatments in the multi-stage solution heat treatment with increasing temperature dissolve the coarse second phase in the aluminum alloy microstructure and improve the supersaturation of solute atoms, and the third solution heat treatment in the multi-stage solution heat treatment further promotes the increase in the solid solubility of Mg and Si atoms, resulting in the presence of more Mg and Si atoms, and the precipitation of Mg2Si phase formed by Mg and Si atoms increases, thereby enhancing the alloy performance of the aluminum alloy; thereby enhancing the tensile strength, conductivity and other properties of the aluminum alloy wire.

[0030] In the preparation method of the high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire provided in the present application, the multi-stage aging heat treatment with increasing temperature is a three-stage aging heat treatment; the first two aging heat treatments in the multi-stage aging heat treatment with increasing temperature enable the formation of aging clusters and heterogeneous nucleation points of the β" phase, while the third aging heat treatment in the multi-stage solid solution heat treatment promotes the further formation of a large number of precipitated phases from the heterogeneous nucleation points of the aging clusters and the β" phase; thereby enhancing the tensile strength, electrical conductivity and other properties of the aluminum alloy wire.

[0031] In the preparation method of the high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire provided in the present application, the temperature of the three-stage solid solution heat treatment is also optimized; the further preferred three-stage solid solution heat treatment is sequentially carried out at 485-495°C for 40-50 minutes, at 515-525°C for 30-40 minutes, and at 530-540°C for 20-30 minutes; by regulating the temperature of the solid solution heat treatment, the defect of reducing the supersaturation of solute atoms in the solid solution due to the inability to fully dissolve the coarse second phase in the organization when the temperatures of the first two solid solution heat treatments are too low can be avoided, and the defect of reducing the supersaturation of solute atoms in the solid solution can be avoided. When the temperature of the first solution heat treatment is too low, the diffusion rate of the alloying elements in the matrix is ​​low, which makes the solute atoms diffuse unevenly and causes the defect of reducing the density of the precipitated phase during the subsequent aging treatment. It also avoids the defect of excessive grain growth caused by the sufficient dissolution of the coarse second phase in the structure when the temperature of the first two solution heat treatments is too high. It also avoids the defect of incomplete precipitation of Mg and Si atoms to form Mg2Si phase when the temperature of the third solution heat treatment is too high due to the increase of the solid solubility of Mg and Si atoms and the presence of more Mg and Si atoms in the matrix. Thus, the tensile strength, electrical conductivity and other properties of the aluminum alloy wire are further improved.

[0032] In the preparation method of the high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wire provided in the present application, the temperature of the three-stage aging heat treatment is also optimized. The multi-stage aging heat treatment with increasing temperature is sequentially performed at 80-90°C for 2-4 hours, 100-130°C for 10-12 hours, and 165-175°C for 6-8 hours. By regulating the aging treatment temperature, the defects of the first two aging heat treatments, which result in fewer aging clusters and thus fewer heterogeneous nucleation sites for the β" phase, and thus fewer precipitates formed, can be avoided. The defects of the third aging heat treatment, which result in fewer precipitates, can also be avoided. The defects of the first two aging heat treatments, which result in larger aging clusters and fewer precipitates, can also be avoided. The defects of the third aging heat treatment, which result in smaller and more voluminous precipitates, can also be avoided. The tensile strength, electrical conductivity, and other properties of the aluminum alloy wire can thus be further improved.

[0259] Experimental Example 1

[0260] The present application conducted performance tests on the high-strength and high-conductivity aluminum alloy wires provided in Examples 1-17 and the aluminum alloy wires provided in Comparative Examples 1-9. The tensile strength in the performance tests was tested in accordance with GB / T 228.1-2010, while the conductivity in the performance tests was tested in accordance with GB / T 12966-2008. The performance test results are shown in Table 1.

[0261] Table 1: Tensile strength and conductivity test results

[0262]

[0263] It can be seen from the test results shown in Table 1 that, compared with Comparative Examples 1-3, the aluminum alloy wire provided in Example 1 has improved tensile strength and electrical conductivity due to the simultaneous introduction of Be, Ni, and Ca.

[0264] Further comparison of Comparative Examples 4-6 and Example 1 shows that the aluminum alloy wire provided in Example 1 has improved tensile strength and electrical conductivity at the same time due to the three-stage solid solution heat treatment with increasing temperature. This indicates that the first two solid solution heat treatments in the multi-stage solid solution heat treatment with increasing temperature dissolve the coarse second phase in the aluminum alloy microstructure and improve the supersaturation of solute atoms. The third solid solution heat treatment in the multi-stage solid solution heat treatment further promotes the increase in the solid solubility of Mg and Si atoms, resulting in the presence of more Mg and Si atoms, and the precipitation of Mg2Si phase formed by Mg and Si atoms increases, thereby enhancing the alloy performance of the aluminum alloy. This enhances the tensile strength, electrical conductivity and other properties of the aluminum alloy wire.

[0265] Comparing Comparative Examples 7-9 with Example 1, it can be seen that the aluminum alloy wire provided in Example 1 has improved tensile strength and electrical conductivity simultaneously due to the three-stage failure heat treatment with increasing temperature. This indicates that the first two aging heat treatments in the multi-stage aging heat treatment with increasing temperature lead to the formation of aging clusters and heterogeneous nucleation sites of the β" phase, while the third aging heat treatment in the multi-stage solution heat treatment promotes the further formation of a large number of precipitated phases from the aging clusters and heterogeneous nucleation sites of the β" phase. This enhances the tensile strength, electrical conductivity and other properties of the aluminum alloy wire.

[0266] By comparing Example 1 with Examples 6-11, it can be seen that by optimizing the temperature of the three-stage solid solution heat treatment and the temperature of the three-stage aging heat treatment, the tensile strength, electrical conductivity and other properties of the aluminum alloy wire can be further improved.
