Embodiment 1

[0069] Batching smelting: The prepared alloy raw materials are batched according to the following mass ratio: lithium 0.9wt%, copper 4.0wt%, magnesium 0.4wt%, silver 0.3wt%, manganese 0.4wt%, titanium 0.09wt%, zirconium 0.1wt% %, 0.25wt% ruthenium, 0.1wt% erbium, and the balance is aluminum. After the pure aluminum ingot is completely melted at 800°C, add copper, manganese, silver, zirconium, ruthenium alloy elements or their intermediate alloys, stir fully for 4 minutes after melting; adjust to 750°C, and press the pure lithium wrapped in aluminum foil with a cup cover Put it into the aluminum alloy melt, keep it completely submerged for 4 minutes, and stir it fully after it is completely dissolved. During this process, argon gas should be introduced into the crucible for protection, and erbium, magnesium, titanium alloy elements or their intermediate alloys are added in sequence, and fully Stir for 4 minutes;

Abstract

The invention discloses a medium and high strength damage resistant aluminum lithium alloy material and a preparation method of the medium and high strength damage resistant aluminum lithium alloy material. The medium and high strength damage resistant aluminum lithium alloy material is prepared from, by mass, 0.5-2% of lithium, 2-5% of copper, 0.2-0.7% of magnesium, 0.1-0.5% of silver, 0.1-0.6% of manganese, 0.01-0.15% of titanium, 0.08-0.15% of zirconium, 0.05-0.6% of ruthenium, 0-0.15% of erbium and the balance aluminum. Since a small amount of rare and precious metal element ruthenium withthe higher melt purifying ability is added into the alloy, the prepared aluminum lithium alloy has the high specific strength, high molding performance, high tenacity and excellent corrosion resistance, and the comprehensive mechanical properties of the alloy are greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an aluminum-lithium alloy material and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a preparation method of an aluminum-lithium alloy material with a new composition. Background technique [0002] Lithium is the lightest metal element. Compared with the traditional 2xxx and 7xxx series aluminum alloys, the aluminum-lithium alloy formed by adding lithium as an alloying element to the aluminum alloy has been receiving attention because of its low density, high specific strength and specific stiffness. Extensive attention in aviation, aerospace and other fields. [0003] In practical applications, it is very difficult to achieve excellent plasticity and damage resistance while maintaining the strength of the alloy. In order to solve this problem, the researchers improved some properties of the alloy by adding a trace amount of rare earth elements, adding rare earth elements erbium to the aluminum alloy to form a dispersed distr...
