Eliminating the Hard Spots in RE Modified Al Alloy Die Castings
摘要
初生硅和AlSiMnFe金属间化合物是造成铝合金压铸件中硬质点区域的主要因素
常规钠盐变质不能细化初生硅和Fe相
含有一定比例La
Ce
Pr
Nd和Yb的特殊配制的稀土合金不仅能细化共晶硅
而且能细化初生硅并改善Fe相形貌。其中初生硅可细化到小于 10 μm
因此能有效消除铝合金压铸件中的硬质点区域。
Abstract
The hard spot area in aluminum alloy die casting mainly originates from the primary silicon and AlSiMnFe intermetallic compound. The primary silicon and Fe phase can not be refined with conventional sodium salt modification. Specially prepared RE almoy with a definite ratio of La
Ce
Pr
Nd and Yb not only can refine eutectic silicon but also refine primary silicon less than 10μm in size and improve morphology of Fe phase
so the hard spot area in aluminum alloy die casting could be eliminated effectively.
