Abstract

The invention relates to an aluminum alloy for casting an engine cylinder cover. The aluminum alloy is prepared from the following components in percentage by mass: 6.5 to 7.5 percent of Si, 0.25 to 0.45 percent of Mg, less than or equal to 0.17 percent of Fe, 0.08 to 0.25 percent of Ti, 0.005 to 0.015 percent of Sr and the balance of Al. The invention further relates to a preparation method of the aluminum alloy. The preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing the materials according to the above component requirements; heating pure aluminum ingots and pure silicon in a crucible furnace to 760 + / - 10 DEG C to melt the pure aluminum ingots and the pure silicon; pressing a pure magnesium, aluminum and titanium intermediate alloy into the bottom of an aluminum and silicon solution with a bell jar, and controlling the temperature at 810 to 860 DEG C for alloying; after the alloying is completed, controlling the temperature between 740 + / - 10 DEG C, and adding an aluminum-strontium intermediate alloy AlSr; feeding high-purity nitrogen for gas removal; adding a covering agent; performing stewing and drossing; and pouring an alloy solution into a preheating die to obtain the aluminum alloy for casting the engine cylinder cover. After the aluminum alloy is subjected to T6 thermal treatment, the tensile strength of the aluminum alloy is 305 to 325 MPa, the yield strength is 240 to 260 MPa, the hardness is 90 to 110 HBS, and the ductility is up to 6 percent; and the strength and the toughness can meet the performance requirements of an engine cylinder cover product.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an aluminum alloy material, in particular to an aluminum alloy used for casting an engine cylinder head and a preparation method thereof. Especially aluminum alloy materials with excellent mechanical properties (high strength, high toughness). Background technique [0002] At present, when various companies produce automobile engine cylinder head products, their production equipment such as smelting, casting, and heat treatment differs, and the casting and heat treatment process parameters adopted have their own use systems; The material performance requirements are inconsistent, so the aluminum alloy materials used by various companies are optimized on the basis of general material grades to form special material grades. [0003] With the integrated application of new technologies such as engine TC (turbo charging technology), GDI (gasoline direct injection technology), VVT (engine variable valve timing technology), the struc...
