Problems solved by technology

These elements may interfere with the added master alloy and produce adverse effects, resulting in a decrease in the refinement effect (that is, the "poisoning" phenomenon of refinement). In the case of aluminum alloy, the reaction of Zr and B will lead to the problem of “poisoning” in the refinement of the master alloy

Abstract

The invention discloses a zinc-aluminum-yttrium master alloy refiner. The zinc-aluminum-yttrium master alloy refiner is characterized by comprising the following components: 2-7% of Y, 12-45% of Al and the balance of Zn, wherein the element Y is embedded in the zinc-aluminum alloy matrix in the form of YZnb-aAla or YAl3-cZnc compound particles, a is larger than 0 and smaller than 5, b equals to 8.5, 10 or 12 and c is larger than 0 and smaller than 1. The invention further discloses a preparation method and application of the zinc-aluminum-yttrium master alloy refiner. According to the zinc-aluminum-yttrium master alloy refiner and the preparation method as well as application thereof, the zinc-aluminum-yttrium master alloy refiner prepared by adopting the preparation method can be added into hypoeutectic zinc-aluminum alloy, so that fine-sized and unramified spherical or polyhedral primary Eta-Zn equiaxed grains can be obtained, and an advantageous effect on the microstructure optimization, casting technique property and use performance of the zinc-aluminum alloy is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of alloy materials, and relates to a zinc-aluminum-yttrium master alloy refiner and its preparation method and application. The prepared zinc-aluminum-yttrium master alloy refiner can be used to refine hypoeutectic zinc-aluminum Primary η-Zn grains in the alloy. Background technique [0002] Hypoeutectic zinc-aluminum alloys with an aluminum content of less than 5wt.% are widely used because of their good fluidity, strong mold filling ability, good mechanical processing performance and certain mechanical properties. However, during the solidification process, the primary η-Zn grains tend to generate large-sized and complexly branched dendrites, which can easily lead to structural defects such as composition segregation, shrinkage porosity, and shrinkage cavities, resulting in problems such as mechanical and corrosion resistance degradation. This problem is often solved by grain refinement in production. ...
