Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of aluminum alloy materials, and specifically to a method for preparing a heterogeneous bimodal grain Al-La alloy that overcomes the high-temperature softening effect by hot extrusion of ingots. Background Technology

[0002] Al alloys are widely used in rail transportation, automobiles and aerospace due to their advantages of lightweight components and high economic efficiency. Heat-resistant Al alloys can reduce costs by replacing titanium with aluminum under medium temperature (200-400℃) service conditions by stabilizing the microstructure and suppressing high temperature softening behavior.

[0003] Near-eutectic Al-La alloys exhibit excellent casting properties, and due to the low diffusion rate of La, the resulting eutectic structure is less prone to coarsening, resulting in higher thermal stability. Adding Sc and Zr can further enhance high-temperature mechanical properties by forming a two-scale second-phase strengthening process. Plastic deformation can improve microstructure defects, control grain refinement, and regulate microstructure flow, and is widely used in aluminum production. Hot extrusion, a plastic deformation method, is well-suited to my country's national conditions and has greater potential for application.

[0004] During hot deformation, the second phase with a particle size greater than 1 μm promotes recrystallization through particle-stimulated nucleation (PSN effect) and inhibits the growth of equiaxed grains after recrystallization through pinning effect. Conversely, the submicron-scale second phase delays the recrystallization process, resulting in coarse fibrous grains. The resulting material grain structure is characterized by heterogeneous bimodal grains with fibrous coarse grains embedded in equiaxed fine grains. The coarse grains enhance high-temperature strength by inhibiting fine grain deformation, while intermetallic compounds further enhance strength by hindering dislocation and grain boundary migration. This study provides a new approach to the microstructure design of heat-resistant aluminum alloys and expands the application prospects of heterogeneous grain structures.

[0005] The literature (Ultrafine-grained Al-La-Mg-Mn alloy fabricated by melt spinning and hot extrusion with ultrahigh strength and thermal stability. Tao Ban, ZhiWang, Liejun Li, Zhuoran Li, Xinkui Zhang, Zhengwu Peng. Journal of Alloys and Compounds 1007 (2024) 176421) describes the preparation of Al-La-Mg-Mn alloy strips using melt spinning and hot extrusion, followed by cold pressing and hot extrusion processes to obtain an ultrafine-grained structure with a grain size of approximately 0.56 μm. A high volume fraction of Al was formed in the alloy. 11 Intermetallic compounds such as La3 and Al6Mn, through multiple mechanisms such as solid solution strengthening, grain refinement strengthening, Orowan strengthening and heterostructure strain hardening, have achieved a tensile strength of 621 MPa and good thermal stability (the strength only decreases by 15% after 200 hours of exposure at 400°C). However, the following shortcomings still exist: (1) The process is complex and costly: the melt fast casting + hot extrusion process is long and the equipment requirements are high, which is not conducive to large-scale industrial application. (2) The material plasticity is limited: although the elongation reaches 6.8%, it is still insufficient for some high plasticity forming scenarios, and there are defects such as secondary cracks at the interface. (3) The high-temperature mechanical properties still need to be clarified. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a heterogeneous bimodal grain heat-resistant aluminum alloy and its preparation method. This invention overcomes the high-temperature softening effect through a hot extrusion process. This method can obtain a rare-earth aluminum alloy with heterogeneous bimodal grains (fiber-like coarse grains embedded with equiaxed fine grains), low compositional segregation, and excellent room-temperature and high-temperature properties. Compared with the as-cast alloy, the room-temperature yield strength increases from 127 MPa (as-cast) to 246 MPa (hot-extruded), and the tensile strength increases from 144 MPa (as-cast) to 281 MPa (hot-extruded), while the plasticity increases from 2.5% (as-cast) to 11% (hot-extruded). The high-temperature yield strength increases from 59 MPa (as-cast) to 93 MPa (hot-extruded), while the tensile strength and plasticity remain similar, at 96 MPa (as-cast) and 100 MPa (hot-extruded), and 17.8% (as-cast) and 17.4% (hot-extruded), respectively. Furthermore, this invention has low operating costs, utilizes mature hot extrusion technology in the aluminum industry, and has broad application prospects.

[0007] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solutions.

[0008] A heterogeneous bimodal grain heat-resistant aluminum alloy comprises: 5~15 wt.% La, 0.1~1 wt.% Sc, 0~0.5 wt.% Zr, with the balance being Al and unavoidable impurities. Preferably, the Zr content is 0.1~0.5 wt.%.

[0009] The heterogeneous bimodal grain heat-resistant aluminum alloy has a room temperature tensile strength greater than 260 MPa and an elongation after fracture greater than 10%, and a high temperature tensile strength greater than 100 MPa and an elongation after fracture greater than 17%. The rare earth aluminum alloy prepared using this method exhibits excellent room temperature and high temperature properties. Furthermore, the process is simple, low-cost, and suitable for industrial production, showing promising application prospects.

[0010] A method for preparing a heat-resistant aluminum alloy with heterogeneous bimodal grains includes the following steps: (1) The raw materials are melted, impurities are removed and heat is maintained, and then the required alloy ingots are prepared by pressure casting. (2) Take the rare earth aluminum alloy ingot obtained in step (1) and cut a cylindrical material from the area relatively far away from the edge, top and bottom of the ingot. Use sandpaper to grind away the surface wire cutting marks of the cylindrical material and use it as blank. (3) The blank obtained in step (2) is placed in a muffle furnace and kept warm. After a period of time, it is placed in a hot extruder for hot extrusion to obtain the heterogeneous bimodal grain heat-resistant aluminum alloy.

[0011] Further, in step (1), the raw materials are pure aluminum ingots, Al-La master alloys and Al-Sc master alloys, or pure aluminum ingots, Al-La master alloys, Al-Sc master alloys and Al-Zr master alloys.

[0012] Furthermore, in step (1), the melting temperature is 700~800℃, the holding temperature is 700~800℃, and the holding time is 10~30min.

[0013] Furthermore, in step (3), the insulation temperature of the blank is 350~550℃ and the insulation time is 15min~30min.

[0014] Further, in step (3), the hot extrusion temperature is 350~550℃, the extrusion ratio is 10~40, and the extrusion pressure is 500~2000KN.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects: (1) This invention uses the relatively inexpensive rare earth element La to prepare Al-La alloys. On the one hand, due to the low solid solubility and low diffusion coefficient of element La in the Al matrix, the Al formed by its reaction with Al... 11The La3 second phase does not coarsen easily at high temperatures, thus giving the alloy excellent high-temperature resistance. On the other hand, by introducing a certain amount of alloying element Sc, nanoscale Al3Sc precipitates are formed, introducing the Orovan strengthening mechanism to improve mechanical properties.

[0016] (2) During the hot deformation process, it breaks down into Al particles with a particle size greater than 1 μm. 11 The La3 second phase promotes the formation of recrystallized grains in the La-rich aluminum matrix through particle-stimulated nucleation (PSN effect) and inhibits the growth of equiaxed grains after recrystallization through pinning effect. Meanwhile, the nanoscale Al3Sc precipitates, during hot extrusion in the absence of Al... 11 The region of the La3 second phase delays the recrystallization process of the aluminum matrix, resulting in coarse fibrous grains.

[0017] (3) This invention utilizes a low-cost, easily industrialized hot extrusion method to prepare aluminum alloy rods, forming a heterogeneous bimodal grain structure with fibrous coarse grains embedded in equiaxed fine grains. The average grain size of the equiaxed fine grains is 1.6 μm, and the average grain size of the fibrous coarse grains is 6.7 μm. The equiaxed fine grains improve strength, while the fibrous coarse grains provide plasticity. The combination of coarse and fine grains results in an alloy with a room temperature tensile strength greater than 260 MPa and an elongation after fracture greater than 10%, and a high temperature tensile strength greater than 100 MPa and an elongation after fracture greater than 17%.

[0018] (4) The present invention improves the high temperature yield strength of the alloy, ensures that the tensile strength and plasticity do not decrease when kept at 300℃, and overcomes the high temperature softening effect. Attached Figure Description
