The invention discloses a
silicon-containing heat-resistant
rare earth magnesium alloy and a preparation method thereof, wherein the
alloy comprises the following components by weight percentage: 5-10% of Gd, 2-8% of Y, 0.3-2% of Si, 0.35-0.8% of Zr, 1-13% of Gd+Y1, less than 0.02% of impurities and the balance of
magnesium. The invention also relates to a preparation method of the
silicon-containing heat-resistant
rare earth magnesium alloy; and the method comprises the steps of
raw material preheating,
smelting and subsequent heat treatment, wherein the
smelting is carried out under protection of the mixed gases of SF6 and CO2; and the subsequent heat treatment comprises
solid-
solution treatment and aging treatment on the
silicon-containing heat-resistant
rare earth magnesium alloy. The preparation method of the silicon-containing heat-resistant rare earth
magnesium alloy is simple in process, low in content of rare earth, and capable of guaranteeing excellent
plasticity while improving the strength of the alloy; and a high-strength high-tenacity heat-resistant wearable
magnesium alloy can be obtained by adjusting the constituents of the alloy and the heat treatment process; besides, the obtained magnesium alloy can be applied to a plurality of fields of automobile,
aerospace, war industry and the like, and thereby is capable of meeting the requirements of a plurality of application occasions.
