Embodiment 1

[0035] The cast aluminum-silicon alloy was prepared according to the above steps. In step 1), the composition mass percentage was set as Si: 11%, and the rest was Al. In step 3), lanthanum is selected as the rare earth and added in the form of master alloy Al-10La, and the mass percentages of B and La are 0.03%-0.05% and 0.05%-0.1% respectively. like image 3 As shown, the cast Al-11Si alloy prepared by joint refinement of boron and rare earth lanthanum was obtained. Obtain equiaxed primary aluminum with an average size of 40-50 microns, and at the same time, the modification effect of eutectic silicon is equivalent, which can be seen Figure 4 .

Abstract

The invention relates to a tissue control method for near-eutectic cast aluminum-silicon alloy. The method comprises the following steps: preparing raw materials, namely commercially pure aluminum, ZL102, Al-Sr, Al-B and one of Al-La, Al-Ce and Al-Re, in a manner that the raw materials contain the following ingredients in percentage by mass: 9-12% of Si, 0.05-0.5% of B, 0.01-0.1% of La, Ce or RE, 0.02-0.03% of Sr and the balance of Al; then carrying out smelting of the following steps: preheating the raw materials, heating an empty furnace, then, adding ZL102 and the commercially pure aluminum, and heating for melting; adding a sodium-free refining agent of which the mass accounts for 0.4-0.6% the total mass of the raw materials; treating a melt treated in the step (2) by adopting a boron and rare-earth combined refining method; carrying out secondary refining treatment on the melt; cooling to 690-700 DEG C, adding an Al-Sr alterant after temperature is stabilized, pressing the alterant into the bottom of the melt, and stirring, so as to enable the alterant to be thoroughly dissolved into the melt; carrying out heat preservation for 10-20 minutes at the temperature of 700 DEG C, then, heating to 720-730 DEG C, casting the melt into a metal mold which is preheated at the temperature of 200-250 DEG C, cooling, and then, taking out a casting.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for controlling the structure of a near-eutectic aluminum-silicon alloy. Background technique [0002] Fine-grain strengthening is one of the most important methods to improve the mechanical properties of materials. Casting aluminum alloys can achieve fine-grain strengthening by adding a refiner to it. At present, the common aluminum alloy refiners mainly include binary Al-Ti, Al-B and other alloys, ternary Al-Ti-B, Al-Ti-C and other alloys, and KBF 4 、K 2 ZrF 6 etc. as the main component of the compound salt. However, when these refiners are applied, there will be a decline in refinement, and the interaction between the refiner and other elements, such as the "poisoning" phenomenon of B and Sr. How to solve the interaction of these refiners so that the components can play the role of refiners is very necessary to improve the mechanical properties of cast aluminum-silicon alloys. [0003] As "industrial vitamins",...
