Abstract

The invention discloses a high-strength high-toughness aluminum-silicon alloy prepared by a metal-type gravity casting technology and a T6 (solid solution+completely artificial aging) heat treatment technology. The high-strength high-toughness aluminum-silicon alloy mainly comprises 6.60-7.40wt% of silicon, 0.18-0.20wt% of magnesium, 0.06-0.08wt% of copper, 0.07-0.10wt% of titanium, 0.035-0.040wt% of zinc, 0.012-0.013wt% of manganese, 0.008-0.009wt% of strontium, less than or equal to 0.16wt% of iron as an impurity element, less than or equal to 0.002wt% of other trace elements and the balance aluminum. The high-strength high-toughness aluminum-silicon alloy has good casting performances and high mechanical properties, is free of a special alloy element or a special preparation technology, is prepared from the raw materials having a low cost and convenient for acquisition and preparation, is especially suitable for manufacture of light components having high strength and toughness demands and is suitable for popularization application in the automobile component manufacturing industry.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an aluminum alloy material, in particular to a high-strength and tough gravity-cast aluminum-silicon alloy with excellent mechanical properties and good casting formability and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With its high specific strength, excellent corrosion resistance and other advantages, aluminum alloy gradually replaces the denser cast iron, and has been widely used in automobiles, aviation and other fields. [0003] Among aluminum alloys, aluminum-silicon-based cast aluminum alloys have good casting properties, corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, and thus become the most widely used cast aluminum alloys. In actual production and application, even after modification, the mechanical properties of aluminum-silicon alloys are still significantly lower than those of cast iron and aluminum-copper cast aluminum alloys. For example, the commonly used A356 aluminum alloy has excellent cas...
