镁合金论文：镁合金碳质法细化工艺及机理研究 【中文摘要】镁合金具有质量轻、比强度和比刚度高等优点,在航空、汽车、家电等行业有很广阔的应用前景。目前尚存在的问题是,镁合金的塑性、高温强度等力学性能和耐腐蚀性等尚不能完全满足工业要求,有待进一步改善和提高。添加含碳变质剂是Mg-Al系合金铸造生产过程中最常用的细化方法,也是提高镁合金综合性能的有效手段。目前含碳变质剂的使用在通用性和规范性方面存在很大不足,同时对于含碳变质法与镁合金中Mn等微量元素的相互作用关系及其形核机制,一直存在很大争议,因此有必要对此开展深入的研究。本论文系统研究了碳质法对Mg-Al系合金组织和性能的影响,并且在该基础上对碳质法的细化机理进行了探讨,为碳质法制备高性能的镁合金提供了基础的研究数据和思路。首先,对添加MgCO3、通入CO2气体??超声波处理细化AZ91镁合金的工艺进行研究。比较实验结果后得出在740℃添加1wt%MgCO3粉末能够取得比较理想的细化效果。其次,经过探讨得到在740℃以0.3L/min向镁中通5分钟的CO2气体得到了细化效果最好的镁合金。另外,对比了几种典型的含碳变质剂(MgCO3、C2C16和CO2气体)的细化过程的优缺点,发现MgCO3粉末是比较适合的一种含碳变质剂。改变镁合金中Mn含量的碳质细化实验及分析发现,当镁合金中不含Mn元素时,添加含碳变质剂不能引起镁合金的细化。只有在含Mn的前提下,添加含碳变质剂才能起到细化效果。借助SEM、DTA、EDS等分析手段,提出了镁合金的碳质法细化机理：首先,镁合金中的C与Al生成了细小的Al-C化合物,这成为了初始形核核心；在该形核核心基础上,Mn与Al形成了新的异质形核核心Al8Mn5,最后,α-Mg在该粒子表面开始形核。 【英文摘要】Magnesium alloys have many unique and excellent properties, such as light weight, high specific strength and stiffness, so they have great potential for applications in aerospace, automotive, home appliances and so on. However, the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys can not meet the demand in industry. So the mechanical properties during the process need to be improved. Carbon inoculation is used widely in the casting to refine the Mg-Al alloy. It is supposed to be an effective method. But carbon inoculation still has some shortages. It is necessary to study and discuss the mechanism of carbon inoculation, especially the relationship between trace elements, such as Mn and the heterogeneous nuclei.In this paper, the micro structure and mechanical properties of AZ91 with carbon-containing agents were studied. A further study was carried on the mechanism by which carbon addition causes grain refinement in magnesium alloys containing aluminum. The research also provides the basic research data and theory basis to how to manufacture high-strength magnesium alloys.The effects of pouring process on the microstructure and mechanical properties of AZ91 were studied.
