The invention belongs to the field of material
processing, and discloses a method for preparing microalloyed AZ31
magnesium alloy by ultrasonic treatment, which comprises the following steps: melting
magnesium at 715-725 DEG C, keeping the temperature for 5-8 minutes, then heating to 725-735 DEG C, then adding Mg-50% Al intermediate
alloy, after Mg-50% Al is completely melted, keeping the temperature for 8-12 minutes, slagging off, stirring to completely dissolve Mg-50% Al, continuously keeping the temperature at 725-735 DEG C, adding pure
zinc, and stirring to obtain the microalloyed AZ31
magnesium alloy. After the pure
zinc is completely molten, carrying out heat preservation for 8-12 minutes, then carrying out slagging-off and stirring to completely dissolve the pure
zinc, finally adding Mg-30% Ca and Mg-30% Ce intermediate alloys, carrying out heat preservation for 8-12 minutes, and carrying out stirring to completely dissolve the Mg-30% Ca and Mg-30% Ce intermediate alloys to obtain an alloy melt; the alloy melt is cooled to 655-665 DEG C, heat preservation is conducted for 20-25 minutes, then an ultrasonic treatment tool head stretches into the position 18-22 mm below the liquid level of the alloy melt for ultrasonic treatment, the ultrasonic treatment power is 300-700 W, and the
treatment time is 60-120 seconds; and
casting and molding under a protective
atmosphere to obtain a
casting blank. According to the method, the problem of slow
diffusion in the
casting process is solved through ultrasonic treatment, the structure is homogenized, and the strength of the structure is obviously enhanced.
