Problems solved by technology

Although the addition of trace elements can increase the hardness value of copper alloys, it also deteriorates the electrical conductivity of copper alloys; the use of deformation and heat treatment (solution, aging treatment) methods is cumbersome and costly, and it is still limited to improve the hardness of copper alloys.

Embodiment 1

[0016] The material used is a copper-based multi-element alloy cast by metal mold, and its chemical composition (mass fraction wt%) is: Cr 0.58%, Se 0.720%, Al 0.23%, Te 0.64%, Fe 0.21%, and the balance is Cu. The copper alloy sample was placed on a CS-IB type six-sided top press for high-pressure aging treatment. The pressure was 2GPa, the heating temperature was 480°C, the holding time was 120min, and the power was turned off and the pressure was released to cool to room temperature. The test results of the hardness value are shown in Table 1.

Embodiment 2

[0018] The composition and process of the materials used are the same as in Example 1. In this example, the pressure is 5GPa, the heating temperature is 550°C, the holding time is 60min, and the power is turned off and the pressure is released to cool to room temperature. The test results of the hardness value are shown in Table 1.

Embodiment 3

[0020] The composition and process of the materials used are the same as in Example 1. In this example, the pressure is 3GPa, the heating temperature is 500°C, the holding time is 100min, and the power is turned off and the pressure is released to cool to room temperature. The test results of the hardness value are shown in Table 1.

[0022]

[0023] Note: Conventional heat treatment (solid solution + aging): solid solution at 950°C for 60 minutes + aging at 470°C for 120 minutes.

[0024] The above experimental results show that the copper-based multi-element alloy has a higher hardness value after being treated by the method of the present invention, which is higher than the hardness value before the embodiment and after the conventional heat treatment process (solid solution+aging).

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for increasing the hardness of a copper-based multi-component alloy. The method mainly comprises that a metal type casting copper-based multi-component alloy is placed onto a cubic press and a high pressure aging treatment is performed, thermal insulation is performed for 60-120 min, and then power down pressure relief cooling is performed to a room temperature, wherein the pressure is 2-5 GPa, and the heating temperature is 480-550 DEG C. According to the present invention, the process has characteristics of simpleness, easy control and stable performance; and the copper-based multi-component alloy treated by the method can achieve the high hardness value, the structure is uniform and compact, the hardness value of the treated copper-based multi-component alloy is increased by about 28.05% compared to the copper-based multi-component alloy without the treatment, and the hardness value of the treated copper-based multi-component alloy is increased by about 10.54% compared to the copper-based multi-component alloy treated by the conventional heat treatment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metal materials, and in particular relates to a method for improving the hardness of copper-based multi-element alloys. Background technique [0002] Copper alloys have been widely used in integrated circuit lead frames, electrodes for resistance welding, armatures, and commutators for electric tools due to their high strength, good electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity. With the development of science and technology, the demand for high-strength and high-conductivity copper-based multi-component alloys is increasing, and at the same time, higher requirements are put forward for the mechanical properties of this type of copper alloy. Therefore, finding methods to prepare and improve the mechanical properties of such copper alloys has attracted extensive attention. [0003] At present, the methods to improve the hardness of this type of copper alloy are mainly to optimize the alloy composition, deformat...
