Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photocuring additive manufacturing and prepares a copper-aluminum alloy gradient material with good curing performance. Background Art

[0002] Copper and aluminum alloys are widely used in modern industry and engineering technology because of their good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and easy cutting performance. Various household appliances, power transmission facilities, integrated circuits are inseparable from copper, aluminum and their alloys, which are an indispensable component of daily life and production. With the advancement of science and technology, traditional processing and preparation methods are difficult to meet the high performance requirements of industry and engineering, which hinders their development and application in related fields. Therefore, how to improve the comprehensive mechanical properties of copper and aluminum alloys has become a major problem that has troubled international material scientists in recent years.

[0003] The strength and plasticity of copper and aluminum alloys prepared by traditional processes seem to be contradictory performance characteristics, showing an "inverted" relationship, that is, high-strength metals often have low plasticity, and it is difficult to have both strength and plasticity. At present, industrial preparation methods are mostly based on the design requirements of the product to meet the requirements of the preset working environment. The shortcomings of strength and plasticity limit the possibility of further development of related products. Homogeneous bulk nanocrystalline and ultrafine crystalline materials can achieve extremely high strength. Researchers have found that homogeneous bulk nano / ultrafine crystalline materials prepared by large plastic deformation processes can effectively improve the strength of the materials, and gradually derived process technologies such as equal-diameter angular extrusion, asynchronous rolling, cumulative rolling, dynamic plastic deformation, and high-pressure torsion. However, the gradient materials prepared by the above-mentioned large plastic deformation process have the shortcoming of extremely low uniform elongation.

[0004] It should be pointed out that the photopolymerization of copper-aluminum alloy gradient materials effectively alleviates the deformation heterogeneity of the heterogeneous zone, which helps to improve the global yield strength of the heterogeneous structural material and maintain ductility.

The present invention realizes a method for preparing a copper-aluminum alloy gradient material with good curing performance by reasonable grading and matching the color and particle size distribution of ceramic powder.
