Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of aluminum alloy materials, in particular to an aluminum alloy material easy to be oxidized and colored and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Aluminum alloy is an important metal material in industry and life, and has a wide application in the fields of automobile, aerospace, machinery, ship and chemistry. The main method for coloring aluminum alloy is to oxidize aluminum alloy as an anode, and after oxidation, fine cavities appear on the surface of the aluminum alloy, and then the aluminum alloy is placed in the dye prepared in advance with water, so that the dye is adsorbed into the cavities to achieve the purpose of coloring.

[0003] The perfect degree of coloring of aluminum alloy depends on the number of cavities on the surface of the aluminum alloy after oxidation. Aluminum forms a dense oxide film on the surface in air and water, thereby reducing the occurrence of oxidation. The general solution is to add a lively metal to achieve the purpose of being oxidized, but this method has certain limitations. The requirement for electrolyte is getting higher and higher, and the efficiency of oxidation also has a certain upper limit, which cannot meet the production needs of people. In the process of electrolysis, a part of metal ions cannot be attached to the surface of the aluminum alloy, causing a certain loss and reducing the comprehensive performance of the product. Therefore, it is particularly important to invent a new type of aluminum alloy material. SUMMARY

[0004] The present application aims to provide an aluminum alloy material easy to be oxidized and colored and a preparation method thereof to solve the problems in the background art.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides the following technical scheme: an aluminum alloy material easy to be oxidized and colored, the raw materials of the aluminum alloy material are as follows, in terms of weight fraction, including 20-25 parts of aluminum alloy powder, 5-10 parts of graphene, 4-6 parts of p-nitrophenol, 0.5-1 part of concentrated bromine water and 4-7 parts of magnesium powder.

[0006] A preparation method of an aluminum alloy material easy to be oxidized and colored, the steps are as follows, (1) Dissolve graphene into ice water, add concentrated sulfuric acid, stir at 500-600 r / min, add sodium nitrate and potassium permanganate, stir for 2-3 h, add hydrogen peroxide, stir for 30-60 min, filter to obtain composition A; (2) Ultrasonically treat composition A to dissolve it in anhydrous ethanol, add p-nitrophenol, stir at 500-600 r / min, add concentrated bromine water to obtain composition B; (3) Add aluminum alloy powder into acetone solution, stir at 500-600 r / min, and stir for 20-30 min to obtain composition C; (4) Mix composition B with composition C, disperse by mechanical grinding, to obtain dispersion liquid A; (5) Add magnesium powder into dispersion liquid A, add in 3 times, stir at 500-600 r / min, disperse until uniform; (6) Filter dispersion liquid A, rinse with deionized water, repeat 3 times, to obtain filter cake, put the filter cake into inert gas drying box, dry for 1-2 h, after drying, put into stainless steel mold; (7) Put the stainless steel mold containing the product into vacuum hot press, vacuumize, heat up to 200-300℃, pressurize, pressure 50-60 MPa, keep temperature and pressure for 3-5 h, start to cool down; (8) Slowly cool down the furnace, take out the mold, take out the product to obtain aluminum alloy material.

[0007] Further, the reaction temperature in steps (2) to (4) is kept at 20-25℃.

[0008] Further, in step (5), the magnesium powder is added in 3 times, 1 / 6 of the total amount in the first time, 1 / 3 of the total amount in the second time, and 1 / 2 of the total amount in the third time.

[0009] Further, in step (6), the temperature of the drying box is 150-250℃, and the inert gas is argon or xenon.

[0010] Further, in step (7), the vacuum degree is 10-20 KPa, and the heating rate is controlled at 30-50℃ / h.

[0011] Further, in step (8), the cooling rate is controlled at 50-60℃ / h.

[0012] Further, in step (6), the filter screen is selected to be 30-50 μm.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the advantages that: in industrial production, the hardness of common aluminum alloy materials cannot meet people's needs, in the present application, graphene is doped with aluminum alloy, which can significantly improve the comprehensive performance of aluminum alloy, improve the hardness, and significantly improve the electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, the present application compares graphene and carbon nanotubes when selecting materials, and finally selects graphene, the reason is that graphene has smaller porosity than carbon nanotubes, and when doped with aluminum alloy, the breaking of carbon-carbon bonds can be reduced, thereby causing the structure of graphene to change, however, graphene still has high porosity, therefore, the graphene is treated first, and the treated graphene has multiple functional groups, such as hydroxyl and carboxyl groups, the addition of functional groups can fill the voids of nucleation sites on one hand, and the addition of functional groups can better improve the aluminum alloy-graphene.

[0014] When dispersing and dissolving the aluminum powder, the solvent added is acetone, but acetone is not a substance required by the product, the general treatment method is to heat to 60-80 DEG C, and evaporate, but this operation will cause the functional groups on the graphene to decompose, and the structure of the graphene and its functional groups is destroyed, therefore, the present application selects p-nitrophenol, on one hand, p-nitrophenol can absorb acetone in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid, on the other hand, the formation of a new polymer can protect the metal from corrosion by acid and alkali, and on the other hand, the hydroxyl group of p-nitrophenol and the hydroxyl group of the treated graphene can be complexed with the metal added later, which can improve the hardness and stability of the aluminum alloy-graphene system.

[0015] When coloring the aluminum alloy material, the electrolytic method is usually used, the aluminum alloy is oxidized as an anode, and then is put into a dye solution, so as to achieve the purpose of dyeing. Therefore, the present application treats p-nitrophenol, and adds concentrated bromine water drop by drop, to ensure that bromine completely replaces the hydrogen atoms on the benzene ring, so that p-nitrophenol carries halogen, on one hand, the product acts as an anode, during ionization, the aluminum alloy surface will form a cavity, and free bromide ions will also be generated, the part of bromide ions can be adsorbed on the cavity of the aluminum alloy material, improve the adsorption capacity of free metal ions, change the surface distribution of the aluminum alloy, make the oxide film on the surface of the aluminum alloy more easily form a cavity, increase the activity of the aluminum alloy, thereby improve the oxidation ability and the coloring efficiency, on the other hand, it can be used as an excellent flame retardant, which can volatilize flame retardant gas when burning to inhibit combustion. The treated graphene has hydroxyl and carboxyl groups, the carboxyl group will produce hydrogen ions with acid when ionized, the hydrogen ions will combine with the ionized bromide ions, causing the rupture of the metal oxide film, the added magnesium powder can react with the carboxyl groups on the graphene, thereby achieving the purpose of removing the carboxyl groups on the graphene.

[0016] In the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid, the concentrated sulfuric acid will react with other metals in the aluminum alloy which is added first, mainly containing copper, magnesium, zinc and other metals, to generate copper sulfate, zinc sulfate and other metal salts, thereby destroying the metal structure of the aluminum alloy and failing to achieve the purpose of enhancing the hardness of the aluminum alloy. According to the activity of the metal, the magnesium powder is selected and added in three times. The reason is that copper sulfate and zinc sulfate will undergo displacement reaction with the added magnesium powder. In order to ensure that the system does not contain copper sulfate and zinc sulfate, the magnesium powder needs to be added in batches and also needs to be continuously stirred and ground to ensure that the precipitated copper and zinc are uniformly dispersed in the anhydrous ethanol. After subsequent vacuum hot pressing, the content of copper, magnesium, zinc and other metal elements in the aluminum alloy can still be maintained, thereby ensuring the stability of the system and improving the hardness of the system. During the heating operation of the vacuum hot press, the heating rate needs to be controlled. If the heating rate is too fast, the product will be unevenly heated, thereby causing the hardness of the product to decrease and the product yield to decrease.

[0017] The hydroxyl and carboxyl groups of the anhydrous ethanol can undergo esterification reaction in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid. This reaction is reversible and also brings in new impurities. Therefore, the product system of the present application does not contain ester impurities, thereby improving the hardness of the aluminum alloy and the yield of the product. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] Experiment Example 3 as a control, set up the following comparative examples: comparative example 1, comparative example 2, comparative example 3, comparative example 4, comparative example 5, comparative example 6, and comparative example 7.

[0040] The differences between example 3 and the comparative examples are as follows: comparative example 1, p-nitrophenol is not added; comparative example 2, concentrated bromine water is not added; comparative example 3, bromine water is added at one time instead of dropwise; comparative example 4, magnesium powder is not added; comparative example 5, magnesium powder is added at one time instead of in three times; comparative example 6, the hot pressing temperature exceeds 500℃; and comparative example 7, the temperature rising speed during vacuum hot pressing is 100℃ / h.

[0041] Hardness test was carried out on each sample of Example 1, Example 2, Example 3, Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 4, Comparative Example 5, Comparative Example 6, Comparative Example 7, and aluminum alloy 6061-T6, 3 samples each, with the experimental standard being GB5237-2004, YB / T420-2000, Table I

[0042] Example 1, Example 2, Example 3, Comparative Example 2, Comparative Example 3, each sample 6 samples, 3 samples for ion oxidation, 3 samples for ion oxidation coloring, and then placed under a SEM microscope for observation, Table II

[0043] Data analysis and conclusion Analysis of Table I shows that the hardness values of Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3 remain in the range of 135-140 hb, the hardness value of Comparative Example 1 remains in the range of 120-125 hb, the hardness value of Comparative Example 4 remains in the range of 110-115 hb, the hardness value of Comparative Example 5 remains in the range of 115-120 hb, the hardness value of Comparative Example 6 remains in the range of 80-85 hb, the hardness value of Comparative Example 7 remains in the range of 105-110 hb, and the hardness value of aluminum alloy 6061-T6 remains in the range of 90-95 hb. The hardness value range is arranged as Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3 > Comparative Example 1 > Comparative Example 5 > Comparative Example 4 > Comparative Example 7 > aluminum alloy 6061-T6 > Comparative Example 6.

[0044] It is concluded that no p-nitrophenol is added in Comparative Example 1, which leads to the decrease of the stability of the aluminum alloy-graphene system, and the rupture occurs when the subsequent processing steps are carried out, resulting in the decrease of the hardness of the product, which shows that the addition of p-nitrophenol in the present application has effect and can improve the stability of the aluminum alloy-graphene and the hardness of the product. In Comparative Example 4, no magnesium powder is contained, and the concentrated sulfuric acid added in the preparation process corrodes other metal elements in the aluminum alloy, which changes the metal content of the aluminum alloy and reduces the hardness of the product, which shows the importance of adding magnesium powder in the present application, which can ensure the content of the remaining metals in the aluminum alloy-graphene and further ensure the hardness of the product within the index range. In Comparative Example 5, the magnesium powder is added at one time, although there is a subsequent stirring and dispersion process, but the actual reaction effect is poorer than that of Example 1, Example 2 and Example 3, and part of the metal still exists in the system in the form of metal salt, which leads to the decrease of the hardness of the product, which shows that the way of adding magnesium powder in the present application in three times is very necessary. In Comparative Example 6, the temperature of hot pressing reaches 600℃, and the hardness is 84hb, which is even less than 93hb of the bulk aluminum alloy 6061-T6, the reason is that the temperature is too high, and the magnesium and copper in the aluminum alloy are sintered, the metal hardness is decreased, and the graphene and its functional groups are decomposed, which finally leads to the decrease of the overall performance of the product, which shows the necessity of confirming that the temperature of vacuum hot pressing in the present application should not be higher than 500℃, which can ensure that the metal will not be sintered, and the graphene and its functional groups will not be decomposed, and further ensure the yield and hardness of the product. In Comparative Example 7, the heating speed is too fast during hot pressing, and the heating is uneven, which makes the hot pressing degree of each part of the aluminum alloy-graphene different, so that the hardness of the product is decreased, so in the operation of vacuum hot pressing, the heating speed should be slow to ensure uniform heating, and further ensure the hardness and yield of the product.

[0045] According to the analysis of Table 2, the surface texture of Example 1, Example 2 and Example 3 is uniform after ion oxidation, and the color of the coloring appearance is uniform, the surface texture of Comparative Example 2 is not uniform after ion oxidation, and the color of the coloring appearance is not uniform, the surface texture of Comparative Example 3 is locally not uniform after ion oxidation, and the color of the coloring appearance is locally not uniform, and the arrangement of coloring and oxidation degree is Example 1, Example 2 and Example 3 > Comparative Example 3 > Comparative Example 2. It is concluded that the aluminum alloy surface in example 1, example 2 and example 3 contains bromine, and in the ionization process, the aluminum alloy surface will form a cavity, and free bromide ions will also be produced, and the free bromide ions can be adsorbed on the cavity of the aluminum alloy material, improve the adsorption capacity of free metal ions, change the surface distribution of the aluminum alloy, make the aluminum alloy surface oxide film more easily form a cavity, increase the activity of the aluminum alloy, and the oxidation ability and the coloring efficiency are higher than those of the comparative example 2, and in the adding process, example 1, example 2 and example 3 adopt dropwise adding, while comparative example 3 adopts one-time adding, so that in the preparation process, the contact between the concentrated bromine water and the p-nitrophenol is not sufficient, so that the surface texture and the coloring appearance after oxidation produce local uneven phenomenon, therefore, it is necessary for the application to selectively add concentrated bromine water and adopt dropwise adding.
