The invention relates to the field of
alloy materials, and discloses a high-quality aluminum-
vanadium-
carbon alloy and a preparation method thereof.
Ammonium metavanadate, aluminum particles and carbon
powder are used as raw materials, V2O5
powder is prepared through oxidizing
roasting of the
ammonium metavanadate,
vanadium elementary substance
powder is prepared through thermal reduction of the V2O5 powder, the
vanadium elementary substance powder, the aluminum particles and the carbon powder are evenly mixed to obtain Al-V-C
alloy powder, the Al-V-C
alloy powder is put into a mold to be subjected to cold pressing to obtain an Al-V-C alloy blank, and the high-quality aluminum-vanadium-
carbon alloy is obtained through
vacuum sintering and suspension
smelting. The alloy comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 50-75wt% of vanadium, 0.4-3.5 wt% of carbon and the balance of aluminum: less than or equal to 0.01 wt% of iron, less than or equal to 0.01 wt% of
silicon, less than or equal to 0.005 wt% of
oxygen and less than or equal to 0.002 wt%
Ammonium metavanadate is used as a vanadium source, the cost is low, compared with an aluminum-vanadium-
carbon alloy obtained through an aluminothermy method and a
smelting method, the adopted method has the characteristics of high purity and high homogenization, segregation is reduced to the maximum extent, aluminum, vanadium and carbon elements are distributed more uniformly, the content of
impurity elements such as
oxygen and
nitrogen is reduced, element burning loss is reduced, and the service life of the aluminum-vanadium-carbon alloy is prolonged. And a new thought is provided for preparation of the domestic high-quality aluminum-vanadium-carbon alloy.
