Background
Magnesium is the lightest engineering construction material at present, with a density of 1.738g/cm 3, about 2/3 of aluminum, 1/4 of steel. Besides the characteristics of structural materials, magnesium and magnesium alloy also have the characteristics of functional materials, such as high electromagnetic shielding performance, good damping performance and excellent heat conduction performance, so that the magnesium and magnesium alloy is also considered as a lightweight material with the most development prospect in the fields of aerospace, rail transit, automobile parts, 3C products and the like.
The heat conductivity of pure magnesium at room temperature is high, about 154.5W/(m.K), and the heat conductivity per unit mass is slightly better than that of aluminum. However, the yield strength of pure magnesium cast at room temperature is only 21MPa, and it cannot be used as a structural member. Alloying is an effective way to improve the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys, but the addition of alloying elements significantly reduces the heat conductivity of magnesium alloys. For example, the common die-casting magnesium alloys Mg-9Al-1Zn (AZ 91) and Mg-6Al-0.5Mn (AM 60) have thermal conductivities which are all smaller than 70W/(m.K) and far lower than that of pure magnesium.
At present, the heat dissipation/heat conduction parts of the magnesium alloy are basically made of the commercial magnesium alloy with low heat conductivity, so that the requirements of high heat conduction products cannot be met. The thermal conductivity coefficient of commercial brand as-cast ZK61 magnesium alloy can reach 115W/(m.K), but the yield strength is usually lower than 180MPa, and the requirements of high strength and toughness and high thermal conductivity of the structural material of the heat dissipation system in the fields of aerospace devices and vehicles are hardly met. The cast rare earth magnesium alloy has higher heat conduction performance (the heat conductivity is more than or equal to 115W/(m.K)) and mechanical performance (the yield strength is more than or equal to 180 MPa), but the cost of the rare earth magnesium alloy is higher, and the density of the magnesium alloy can be obviously improved by adding a large amount of rare earth elements.
The magnesium alloy with high mechanical property and high heat-conducting property can be prepared by deformation processes such as rolling, forging, extrusion and the like reported in the literature, but the close-packed hexagonal crystal structure of the magnesium alloy leads to complex deformation processes and high cost, and particularly when facing magnesium alloy products with complex structures, the deformation processes often cannot meet the requirements.
Semi-solid thixotropic injection molding utilizes the special flowable characteristics of metal in semi-solid state to perform injection molding. The semi-solid state phenomenon of metal, namely, the metal in a solid-liquid two-phase temperature zone can be stirred by only quite low shearing stress, at the moment, the shearing force is about three orders of magnitude lower than that of the same liquid metal, the metal is easy to form, and the metal is better than the mechanical property of a traditional dendrite solidification casting, so that the metal is particularly suitable for magnesium alloy forming.
Chinese patent CN109136699B discloses a high heat conduction magnesium alloy, an inverter shell, an inverter and an automobile, and the magnesium alloy is prepared by the following chemical components, by mass, 2.0-4.0% of Al, 0.1-0.3% of Mn, 1.0-2.0% of La, 2.0-4.0% of Ce, 0.1-1% of Nd, 0.5-2% of Zn, 0.1-0.5% of Ca, 0.1% of Sr, less than or equal to 0.1% of Cu and the balance of Mg. The alloy has a thermal conductivity of greater than 110W/(m.K), but a yield strength of less than 160MPa and an elongation of 5%. Although the material has higher heat conductivity, the yield strength is low, and the material can not meet the requirements of high strength and toughness and high heat conductivity of structural materials of a heat dissipation system in the fields of aerospace devices and vehicles.
Chinese patent CN110819863B discloses a low-rare earth high-heat-conductivity magnesium alloy and a preparation method thereof, and the magnesium alloy is prepared by casting Mg-Gd-Er-Zn-Zr, wherein the magnesium alloy comprises, by mass, 5.0-7.0% of Gd, 0.5-2% of Er, 3.0-7.0% of Zn, 0.5-1.0% of Zr and the balance of Mg. The thermal conductivity of the alloy is more than 115W/(m.K), the yield strength reaches 200MPa, and the elongation is more than 20%. However, a large amount of rare earth elements Gd and Er with high cost are added into the alloy, so that the alloy cost is high.
Chinese patent CN104152769B discloses a heat-conducting magnesium alloy and a preparation method thereof, and the heat-conducting magnesium alloy is prepared by the following chemical components, by mass, 0.8-3.0% of Zn, 0.25-0.48% of Mn, 0.05-1.0% of Ce, less than or equal to 0.15% of impurity, and the balance of Mg. The deformation mode is extrusion, rolling or forging. The alloy has a thermal conductivity of more than 130W/(m.K), a yield strength of more than 200MPa and an elongation of more than 20%. However, the alloy has low Zn content and insufficient mechanical strength, can only be manufactured by adopting a deformation processing technology with complex technology, and is not suitable for preparing products with complex structures by using the alloy.
In the prior art, the publication AZ91D magnesium alloy semi-solid thixotropic injection structure and process research is carried out to prepare the Mg-Al-Zn semi-solid thixotropic injection molding alloy, wherein the chemical composition of the alloy comprises 8.3 mass percent of Al, 0.54 mass percent of Zn, 0.14 mass percent of Mn and the balance of Mg. The alloy has a thermal conductivity of less than 60W/(mK), a yield strength not mentioned and an elongation of about 8%. The alloy cannot simultaneously give consideration to excellent mechanical properties and heat conduction properties, and has limited application fields.
In recent years, miniaturization and integration of electronic devices have become a development trend, which puts higher and higher demands on the heat conducting property and mechanical property of the heat dissipation/heat conduction assembly, so as to ensure that the product has high working stability and service life. Particularly, complex structural members of heat dissipation/heat conduction systems such as aerospace electronic devices, 3C products and vehicles with urgent light weight requirements are required to have high heat conductivity, excellent mechanical properties and low production cost. However, the current commercial grade magnesium alloy and the magnesium alloy materials reported at home and abroad cannot simultaneously consider the heat conducting property, the mechanical property and the processing cost, so that development of novel magnesium alloy component design and novel forming technology research is urgently needed to develop novel high-strength and high-toughness high-heat conducting magnesium alloy.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a high-strength high-toughness high-heat-conductivity magnesium alloy and a processing method thereof, and solves the problem that the existing magnesium alloy cannot simultaneously achieve high heat conductivity and high strength by adopting a low-cost alloy formula on the premise of not adding expensive rare earth elements. The magnesium alloy has the heat conductivity coefficient of more than or equal to 115W/(m.K), the yield strength of more than or equal to 200MPa and the elongation rate of more than or equal to 8 percent, and meanwhile, the semi-solid thixotropic injection molding technology is adopted for processing, the mechanical property of the magnesium alloy is close to that of the deformed magnesium alloy, but the technology is less difficult than the traditional plastic deformation mode, the cost is low, the large-scale mass production is convenient, the magnesium alloy product with a complex structure which cannot be manufactured by the deformation technology can be manufactured, and the magnesium alloy product can be widely used for preparing heat dissipation/heat conduction components in the fields of aerospace, 3C products and automobile parts.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
The high strength and toughness high heat conductivity magnesium alloy comprises 8.0-12.0% of Zn, less than or equal to 2.0% of Ca or Mn, less than or equal to 2.0% of Mn, and one or more of La, ce, si, sb, zr, sn%, wherein La is less than or equal to 2.0%, ce is less than or equal to 2.0%, si is less than or equal to 2.5%, sb is less than or equal to 2.0%, zr is less than or equal to 1.0%, sn is less than or equal to 2.0%, and the balance is Mg and unavoidable impurities.
The heat conductivity coefficient of the magnesium alloy is more than or equal to 115W/(m.K), the yield strength is more than or equal to 200MPa, and the elongation is more than or equal to 8%.
The research shows that the mechanical property and the heat conduction property of the magnesium alloy have close relation with the alloy components and the microstructure. The mechanism of improving mechanical properties such as solid solution strengthening, dispersion strengthening, dislocation strengthening, fine grain strengthening and the like tends to reduce the heat conducting property.
The design idea of the invention is that the mechanical property of the material is improved through a second-phase strengthening mechanism, and meanwhile, the negative influence of the added alloy element on the heat conduction property of the material is reduced to the greatest extent, so that the type and the content of the alloy element are required to be controlled, and the material has the characteristics of high strength and toughness and high heat conduction.
The Zn can obviously improve the mechanical property of the magnesium alloy, has smaller negative influence on the heat conduction property, and the trace Mn, ca, la, ce, si, sb, zr, sn element can improve the mechanical property of the magnesium alloy in a mode of refining grains or forming second phase reinforcement, and can not obviously reduce the heat conduction property.
The solid solubility of Zn element in Mg is about 6.2%, and the Mg-Zn alloy has a wider solid-liquid two-phase region. Zn element and Mg form a series of Mg-Zn binary phases, the effect of solid solution strengthening and precipitation strengthening is achieved, zn is a weak grain refining agent, a finer microstructure can be obtained, and therefore the mechanical property of the magnesium alloy is improved, and the negative influence of Zn element on the heat conducting property of the magnesium alloy is far lower than that of Al element, so that the heat conducting property of the Mg-Zn alloy is obviously superior to that of the Mg-Al alloy. The content of Zn element is too low, the fluidity of semi-solid slurry is not good, and the complete filling cannot be realized, and the addition of too much Zn element can influence the fluidity of the alloy, increase the hot cracking tendency of microstructure and reduce the heat conducting property of the alloy. Therefore, the Zn element content in the invention is 8-12%.
Mn can refine the microstructure of the magnesium alloy and improve the corrosion resistance by controlling the Fe content. The proper Mn content has less negative effect on the heat conducting property of the magnesium alloy, so the Mn element percentage content in the invention is not more than 2 percent.
Ca element has the function of grain refinement in the magnesium alloy, can inhibit oxidation of magnesium alloy melt, and improves the flame retardant property of the magnesium alloy. The element and Mg form a second phase with high melting point, and the effect of improving the mechanical property of the alloy is remarkable. The proper amount of Ca element does not obviously reduce the heat conduction performance of the magnesium alloy, so that the mass percent of the Ca element does not exceed 2 percent by adopting low alloying.
The rare earth elements La and Ce can refine the microstructure of the magnesium alloy, purify the alloy melt, improve the fluidity of the alloy and reduce the fierce tendency of the alloy. The rare earth second phase particles can obviously improve the mechanical property and the heat resistance of the magnesium alloy, and the magnesium alloy has excellent heat conductivity and mechanical property by adding a small amount of La and Ce into the magnesium alloy. Research shows that La and Ce have less negative effect on the heat conducting property of the magnesium alloy and belong to cheap rare earth, so that the mass percent of La and Ce in the invention is not more than 2%.
Si can improve the fluidity of a melt in the magnesium alloy, and a Mg 2 Si second phase formed in the solidification process is a very effective mechanical property strengthening phase so as to improve the mechanical property of the magnesium alloy. However, si element reduces the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy, and therefore, the mass percentage of Si in the present invention is not more than 2.5%.
The solid solubility of Sb in a magnesium matrix is extremely small and mainly exists in the form of a second phase Mg 3Sb2, so that the element has little influence on the heat conducting property of the magnesium alloy, the mechanical property at normal temperature can be improved, and meanwhile, the casting property of the Mg-Zn alloy can be improved by the Sb. When the addition amount of Sb is more than 2%, a large amount of continuous network second phases are precipitated, so that the mechanical property of the magnesium alloy is reduced. Therefore, the mass percentage of Sb in the invention is 0-2%.
Zr is a strong grain refining element in magnesium alloy, and is particularly used as a good grain refiner of Mg-Zn alloy. The solid solubility of Zr in Mg is very small, and a small amount of Zr does not have obvious influence on the heat conducting property of the magnesium alloy, so that the mass percent of Zr in the invention is not more than 1%.
The Sn element, mg and Zn form a strengthening phase, so that the mechanical property of the magnesium alloy is improved, and the influence on the heat conducting property is small. The mass percentage of Sn in the invention is not more than 2 percent.
Semi-solid thixotropic injection molded alloys generally have a relatively broad solid-liquid two-phase region. The alloy semi-solid slurry must have sufficient fluidity to fill complex mold cavities while ensuring near laminar flow filling without introducing significant amounts of gas. Therefore, the high-strength and high-toughness high-heat-conductivity magnesium alloy can be formed by using a semi-solid thixotropic injection molding process, and alloying elements which are beneficial to obtaining the characteristics are also required to be added into the magnesium alloy. According to the invention, zn elements with higher content are added, when the Zn content is controlled to be 8-12%, the fluidity of the semi-solid slurry is better, complete filling can be realized, elements such as Ca, zr, mn, si, sb, sn, la, ce and the like are selected for multi-element alloying, the elements have less negative influence on the heat conducting performance of the magnesium alloy on the basis of improving the mechanical performance of the magnesium alloy, and the content of each added element is controlled below the respective solid solubility as much as possible, so that the fluidity of the semi-solid slurry is better on the premise of considering the high strength and toughness and high heat conducting performance of the alloy, and the semi-solid thixotropic injection molding process can be adopted to manufacture the magnesium alloy product with complex structure which cannot be manufactured by the deformation process.
The processing method of the high-strength high-toughness high-heat-conductivity magnesium alloy comprises the following steps:
1) Proportioning materials

3) Magnesium alloy particle processing
Placing the magnesium alloy cast ingot into a granulator, and processing into magnesium alloy particles;
4) Semisolid thixotropic injection molding

5) Heat treatment of
The obtained semi-solid metal piece is sequentially subjected to solution treatment and aging treatment, wherein the solution treatment temperature is 300-450 ℃, the heat preservation time is 1-36 h, the aging treatment temperature is 150-200 ℃, and the heat preservation time is 4-168 h.
Preferably, in the step 2), the magnesium alloy flux is an RJ-4 flux, an RJ-5 flux or an RJ-6 flux, preferably an RJ-5 flux.
Preferably, in the step 3), the particle size of the magnesium alloy is (1 to 2 mm) × (4 to 6 mm).
Preferably, in the step 4), the solid phase ratio of the semi-solid slurry is controlled to be 10-50% by volume.
In the semi-solid thixotropic injection molding process, the temperature of the charging barrel is set at 550-630 ℃ so as to realize the solid phase ratio of semi-solid slurry meeting the semi-solid thixotropic injection molding process, and the solid phase ratio of the semi-solid slurry is controlled at 10-50% by volume, so that the material has higher strength and heat conducting property. The injection speed is 2-5 m/s, the injection speed is too low, the material cannot be completely filled, the injection speed is too high, the porosity of the material is higher, and the mechanical property and the heat conducting property are reduced. In addition, aiming at the alloy design in the invention, the temperature of the die is set at 200-300 ℃, so that the thermal cracking is prevented, the complete filling is realized, and the qualified magnesium alloy product is manufactured.
The invention increases the heat treatment technology after the semi-solid thixotropic injection molding to further improve the strength and toughness and other excellent performances of the magnesium alloy, has small porosity and fine grains, but still has coarser second phase, separates out the second phase with smaller size after the heat treatment, increases the strengthening effect of the second phase and improves the mechanical property of the material, and in addition, ensures that the tiny second phase is separated out after the alloy element is completely dissolved into the magnesium matrix after the heat treatment, reduces the negative influence of the alloy element on the heat conducting property of the magnesium alloy and improves the heat conductivity. Therefore, a heat treatment process is added after semi-solid thixotropic injection molding, and the mechanical property and the heat conduction property of the material are improved simultaneously by utilizing solid solution strengthening and aging strengthening.
The solid solution treatment temperature is 300-450 ℃, the heat preservation time is 1-36 h, and the aim is to ensure that alloy elements Zn, si, sb, sn, ca, la, ce, zr are completely dissolved into a magnesium matrix as far as possible, and the grain size can not be obviously grown by controlling. The aging treatment temperature is 150-200 ℃, the heat preservation time is 4-168 h, and the aging treatment temperature and time ensure that fine second phases of Mg-Zn, mg-Si, mg-Sb, mg-Sn, mg-Ca and other binary strengthening phases and Mg-Zn-La, mg-Zn-Ce, mg-Zn-Ca and other ternary strengthening phases are separated out.
After semi-solid treatment, the magnesium alloy is subjected to heat treatment, and through solution treatment and aging treatment, a tiny and dispersed second phase can be separated out, so that the mechanical property of the material is obviously improved; the alloy provided by the invention has the advantages that the binary strengthening phases such as Mg-Zn, mg-Si, mg-Sb, mg-Sn, mg-Ca and the like and the ternary strengthening phases such as Mg-Zn-La, mg-Zn-Ce, mg-Zn-Ca and the like which are separated out after heat treatment are adopted, so that the mechanical properties of the material are improved, and meanwhile, the lattice distortion degree is reduced and the thermal conductivity of the material is improved through solution treatment and aging treatment. Therefore, the heat treatment mode of solution treatment and aging treatment can improve the mechanical property and the heat conduction property of the material at the same time.
The traditional die-casting magnesium alloy is cast by adopting a die-casting process, no matter what components are, the interior of the magnesium alloy can generate high porosity, so that the mechanical property and the heat conducting property of the magnesium alloy are reduced, and the mechanical property and the heat conducting property of the material cannot be improved by heat treatment in the follow-up process due to the high porosity of the interior of the magnesium alloy.
The traditional deformation magnesium alloy adopts a deformation process, so that the magnesium alloy can obtain excellent heat conduction performance and mechanical property, the deformation process comprises extrusion, forging, rolling and the like, but the magnesium alloy is internally provided with a close-packed hexagonal crystal structure, so that when the magnesium alloy product is manufactured by adopting the deformation process, the process is more complex, the cost is higher, and the magnesium alloy product with complex structure cannot be prepared.
The invention adopts the semi-solid thixotropic injection molding and heat treatment process, combines the component control of the magnesium alloy, effectively balances the mechanical property and the heat conduction property of the magnesium alloy, and ensures that the magnesium alloy material has high strength and toughness and high heat conduction.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
