Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of automotive brake discs, and particularly relates to a cast iron brake disc and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The brake disc is a key component in the automotive braking system, and its main function is to decelerate or stop the vehicle by friction with the brake pads. Brake discs are usually made of metal materials such as cast iron, steel or composite materials, and can still maintain good performance and durability under high temperature and high load conditions. Brake discs are usually circular and fixed on the wheel hub, rotating with the wheel. When the driver steps on the brake pedal, the brake caliper clamps the brake disc, generating frictional force to decelerate or stop the vehicle.
[0003] Cast iron brake discs are a traditional material widely used in automotive braking systems, with various advantages and limitations. Cast iron materials have good wear resistance and high temperature resistance, can withstand high temperature and wear, and are suitable for long-term use. Its fracture surface is dark gray, indicating that it has certain mechanical properties. Cast iron brake discs have a high thermal conductivity, can dissipate heat quickly, prevent heat fade caused by overheating, and thus ensure the stability during continuous braking. The manufacturing process of cast iron brake discs is relatively simple, easy to process and form, and suitable for mass production. Cast iron brake discs also have some limitations. Cast iron materials are prone to oxidation and rust, especially in humid environments, which may affect their service life and performance. Under high temperature braking conditions, cast iron brake discs have poor thermal fade resistance, which may lead to a decrease in braking force. Cast iron materials have a low hardness, are prone to cracks and wear, and are not suitable for the manufacture of high-precision and high-wear-resistant parts. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a cast iron brake disc and a preparation method thereof.
[0005] A cast iron brake disc is prepared by spraying a functional coating on a cast iron matrix, and the dosage of the functional coating accounts for 8-12% of the mass of the cast iron matrix.
[0006] The cast iron matrix is made of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 100-200 parts of pig iron, 6-8 parts of carburizer, 0.2-0.6 parts of electrolytic copper, 3-5 parts of ferromanganese, 2-4 parts of ferrochrome, and 3-5 parts of rare earth oxide.
[0007] The carburizer is graphite, petroleum coke or coke.
[0008] The ferromanganese contains Mn≥52.4%, P≤0.8%, and S≤0.05%.
[0009] The ferrochrome contains Cr≥48.2%, Si≤2.2%, Mn≤0.8%, and V≤0.3%.
[0010] The rare earth oxide is a mixture of yttrium oxide and cerium dioxide mixed in a mass ratio of 1:1.
[0011] The functional coating is composed of the following components in parts by weight: 20-30 parts of perchloroethylene resin, 20-30 parts of polyaspartic acid resin, 20-30 parts of filler, 3-5 parts of isophorone diisocyanate, 2-5 parts of dispersant, and 1-3 parts of leveling agent.
[0012] The filler is a mixture of sodium tungstate and potassium titanate whiskers mixed in a mass ratio of 1:1.
[0013] The dispersant is one or more of polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium polyacrylate, methyl methacrylate, magnesium stearate, and methacrylate phosphate diol; the leveling agent is one or more of polydimethylsiloxane, polymethylphenylsiloxane, and n-butyl acrylate.
[0014] The preparation method of the cast iron brake disc is carried out according to the following steps:
[0015] (1) Add pig iron, carbon additive, electrolytic copper, ferromanganese, ferrochrome, and rare earth oxide into an electric arc furnace for heating. The heating temperature is 1600-1800 °C, and keep warm for 10-20 min, then skim the slag to obtain a cast iron solution.
[0016] (2) Pour the molten cast iron solution into a pre-prepared mold, and make it fill the cavity by gravity or pressure. The casting is cooled and solidified in the mold, and a robotic arm or vibrating sand cleaning machine is used to remove the sand shell from the casting to obtain a cast iron matrix.
[0017] (3) Place the cast iron matrix in a coating chamber, heat the functional coating to 60-80 °C, and spray it onto the cast iron matrix. The dosage of the functional coating accounts for 8-12% of the mass of the cast iron matrix. After spraying, cool it naturally to room temperature.
[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention: For the cast iron brake disc prepared by the present invention, rare earth oxide is added to the traditional cast iron preparation raw materials, which improves the mechanical properties of the material. Moreover, the rare earth oxide is a composite of yttrium oxide and cerium dioxide, and the combined use has a synergistic effect. The surface of the brake disc is coated with a functional coating, which improves the wear resistance and heat resistance of the brake disc. The combined use of perchloroethylene resin and polyaspartic acid resin improves the wear resistance of the brake disc, and the combined use of sodium tungstate and potassium titanate whiskers improves the heat resistance of the brake disc.

The cast iron brake disc according to claim 7, characterized in that: The dispersant is one or more of polyvinyl pyrrolidone, sodium polyacrylate, methyl methacrylate, magnesium stearate, and methacrylate phosphate diol; the leveling agent is one or more of polydimethylsiloxane, polymethylphenylsiloxane, and polybutyl acrylate.
10. The method for preparing the cast iron brake disc according to claim 1, characterized in that: Follow these steps: (1) Add pig iron, carburizer, electrolytic copper, ferromanganese, ferrochrome and rare earth oxide into an electric arc furnace and heat at a temperature of 1600-1800°C for 10-20 minutes, remove the slag and obtain a cast iron solution; (2) Pour the molten cast iron solution into a pre-prepared mold, fill the mold cavity by gravity or pressure, cool and solidify the casting in the mold, and use a robotic arm or a vibrating sand cleaning machine to remove the sand shell from the casting to obtain a cast iron matrix; (3) Place the cast iron substrate in a coating room, heat the functional coating to 60-80°C, and spray it onto the cast iron substrate. The amount of functional coating accounts for 8-12% of the mass of the cast iron substrate. After spraying, cool it naturally to room temperature.
