The invention discloses high-strength aluminum
alloy for electronic product outer parts and a preparation method thereof. The aluminum
alloy is prepared from the following components according to masspercent: 4.5 to 5.5% of Zn, 0.8 to 1.0% of Mg, 0.3 to 0.5% of Cu, 0.05 to 0.15% of Mn, 0.01 to 0.03% of Y, 0.04 to 0.06% of Ti, 0.005 to 0.01% of Sr, less than or equal to 0.1% of Fe, less than or equal to 0.1% of Si and the balance of Al and inevitable other impurities. The preparation method comprises the steps of
smelting and preparing an aluminum
alloy solution, performing spray refining in afurnace, performing online refinement and modification, performing online degassing and
filtration, performing semicontinuous
casting, homogenizing cast ingots, heating and extruding, and performingonline
quenching and
artificial aging. According to the high-strength aluminum alloy and the preparation method, the cleanliness of the aluminum alloy and the uniformity of tissue components are increased, Fe-enriched phases and continuous intercrystalline network MgZn2 phases are refined and modified, and the defects of black lines, black dots and the like of an oxidation film are eliminated, sothat recrystallized fine equiaxed grains are obtained by extruding the aluminum alloy, tissue stripes and piebald of the oxidation film are eliminated, and the quality of the oxidation film is increased. The aluminum alloy has the advantages of high strength, good
plasticity and excellent oxidizing and coloring effects and is suitable for manufacturing outer structural parts of various electronicproducts.
