example 1

[0028] Example 1. Melting magnesium alloy AZ91D, the melting temperature is 720°C, the melting crucible pressure rise rate is 20000Pa / hour, and the protective gas input pipeline is connected for the first time

[0029] Remove the crucible cover 9, put the dried magnesium alloy AZ91D into the lower part 1b of the crucible, and then cover the heat shield 3 and the melting crucible cover 9. Then open the vacuum system to remove the air in the smelting crucible 1; when the pressure in the crucible 1 is less than 1Pa, open the gas charging port and continue pumping for 3 minutes, while using the protective gas input device to fill the melting crucible 1 through the gas charging port 10. Gas, 99.9% N 2 +0.1% SF 6 , to prevent evaporation, oxidation, and combustion during the smelting process of molten magnesium. When the pressure in the melting crucible is 1 atmosphere, close the gas filling port, turn on the power supply of the heating furnace, and start smelting magnesium alloy. ...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vacuum-sealed melting furnace for magnesium alloys and a corresponding method for preventing oxidation and combustion of magnesium alloys, belonging to the technical field of metal materials and metallurgy. Background technique [0002] Magnesium and magnesium alloys have significant advantages such as low specific gravity, high specific strength and specific stiffness, and low raw material prices. In the past two decades, the research and application of magnesium alloys have attracted increasing attention from the material science and industry circles. At present, my country's magnesium industry is smelting magnesium and magnesium alloys in open or semi-open furnaces, using continuous feeding of SF 6 or similar gas as shielding gas. This was once the greatest advance in the magnesium industry as it eliminated the previous use of SO 2 and most problems with flux smelting. However, if used in large quantities, it is not onl...
