High thermal conductivity die-casting aluminum alloy and preparation method thereofTechnical field
The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of metal materials, for example, to a high thermal conductivity die-casting aluminum alloy and a preparation method thereof.
Background technique
ADC(Aluminum-Alloy Die Castings)12(96-110)W/(m·K)ADC1(LM6(BS ))142W/(m·K)230W/(m·K)
With the development of modern industry, the heat dissipation of equipment in the electronics, communications, aerospace and automotive industries is increasing, and the requirements for the thermal conductivity of materials are becoming higher and higher. The performance of traditional metal materials can no longer meet the application needs. The development of high thermal conductivity aluminum alloy materials suitable for die casting has important application value. The aluminum-silicon alloy and the aluminum-magnesium alloy have excellent casting properties. However, the thermal conductivity is generally not high. The thermal conductivity of the mainstream die-cast aluminum alloy such as ADC (Aluminum-Alloy Die Castings) 12 can reach (96-110) W / (m · K), ADC1 (LM6 (UK) A material in the BS standard)) is a die-cast aluminum alloy with a castability deviation, and its thermal conductivity is about 142 W/(m·K), which is already a material with a relatively high thermal conductivity in die-cast aluminum alloy. Although the thermal conductivity of pure aluminum is as high as 230 W/(m·K), the mechanical properties are poor and the casting performance is poor, which makes it difficult to meet the heat dissipation requirements of high heat-consuming devices in the electronics and communication industries.
CN57.5(153-160)W/(m·K)NIKKEI MC ALUMINIUMAl-2Ni-Fe190W/(m·K)ADC1235
In recent years, in order to obtain a high thermal conductivity aluminum alloy suitable for die casting, a large number of studies have been carried out at home and abroad. The patent application of CN discloses a silicon content of 5% to 7.5% and is refined by boron, titanium and zirconium. The aluminum-silicon alloy of the cast structure has a thermal conductivity of (153-160) W/(m·K) in the as-cast state. Even if the structure is refined by the modifier, the thermal conductivity of the as-cast material is still low, and most complex large-scale die-casting parts cannot be heated to improve the thermal conductivity. NIKKEI MC ALUMINIUM developed Al-2Ni-Fe die-cast aluminum alloy, which has a thermal conductivity of 190 W/(m·K) in the as-cast state, but the casting performance is reduced by more than 35% compared with ADC12, and its hardness is low and its strength is low. This material is mainly used for heat sinks and flat heat conduction parts.

Al-NiNiMg-AlMg-Ni
The present disclosure adds four elements of silicon, nickel, iron and magnesium into the aluminum alloy, and nickel has little effect on the thermal conductivity of the aluminum alloy, forming an Al-Ni compound in the alloy, which acts as a dispersion strengthening effect while utilizing the Ni-rich phase. The spherical shape and small size of the particles make it improve the strength of the aluminum alloy while maintaining the high elongation of the material; silicon strengthens the aluminum alloy and also contributes to the fluidity of the alloy, but the addition of silicon is reduced. The thermal conductivity of the alloy; iron has the function of promoting the demolding of the part, but the excessive iron content will form a coarse needle-like compound phase, which will reduce the mechanical properties of the alloy, and iron will reduce the thermal conductivity of the alloy; magnesium has a strengthening effect and can be used in the alloy. The Mg-Al, Mg-Ni compound is formed with aluminum and nickel, but the solid solution of the magnesium into the aluminum matrix causes the thermal conductivity of the alloy to be lowered. The combination of these four elements has little effect on the thermal conductivity of the aluminum alloy, and improves the casting properties and mechanical properties of the alloy, so that the high thermal conductivity die-casting aluminum alloy has both high thermal conductivity and good casting performance and mechanical properties.
Since the elemental silicon in the material is little or substantially absent, the anodized film caused by the insolubilization of silicon in the oxidation process and the dissolution of other alloying elements in the solution are prevented from being uneven and incomplete. Thereby, the appearance of the anodized film is uniform in color.
α-AlSi
At the same time, by adding yttrium as a modifier, it is possible to carry out the same when the α-Al solid solution and the needle-like Si are the same. The refinement reduces the resistance of the electron movement in the alloy, thereby improving the thermal conductivity of the material, and the grain refinement also improves the mechanical properties of the material.
