The present invention relates to metallurgy, and in particular, to chemical composition and technology of obtaining Dore bars for modifying the grain structure of ingots of aluminum alloys. The modification of the grain structure of ingots reduces their propensity for hot and cold cracks that occur during and after casting, promote technological plasticity of ingots when handling their pressure (forging, extrusion, rolling and improve the service properties of the deformed semi-finished products obtained from the above-mentioned bars.

One of the most well-known and long used the modifier alloys are alloys Al-Ti titanium content of 2-5% (hereinafter % by weight) and the ligature Al-boron 2-5% (Napalkov VI, Mach SV Alloying and modification of aluminum and magnesium. M: Misa, 2002 - s-245). The use of ligatures Al-Ti and Al-In allows you to grind grain structure of ingots of aluminum alloys and to increase their resistance to hot and cold cracking, and increase technological plasticity in the processing pressure. However, the effectiveness of alloys Al-Ti and Al Is not tall, and strong grinding the beans in cast ingots does not occur.

Known more effective modifier ligatures Al-Ti-B and Al-Ti-C, produced in the form of Dore bars (Makarov is.Sslide of aluminum alloys with magnesium and silicon for pressing. M: Internationalising, 2011 - str-314; Napalkov VI, Mach SV Alloying and modification of aluminum and magnesium. M: Misa, 2002 - s-251). The prototype.

Ligatures Al-Ti-B and Al-Ti-C, used in the form of Dore bars, have a strong modifying effect on the grain structure of ingots of aluminum alloys is significantly superior to the modifying effect of ligatures Al-Ti and Al-Century. however, the use of Dore bars Al-Ti-B and Al-Ti-C does not allow you to obtain ingots of aluminum alloys with extremely crushed grain structure, with the so-called nidentity structure, characterized by the absence of dendritic structure and equality of grain size the size of the dendritic cells of the second order (dendritic parameter).

Proposed modifying ligature rod Al-Sc-Zr, producing ingots of aluminum alloys with extremely crushed grain structure (with nidentity structure). When using a ligature wire Al-Sc-Zr in the process of casting ingots formed extremely crushed grain structure, not having a dendritic structure with a grain size equal to dendritic parameter. In addition to the limit of grinding grain patterns are crushed particles of excess phases crystallization of origin, occurring at the grain boundaries.

To obtain ligature p the duck Al-Sc-Zr, capable of extremely grind grain structure of ingots up to the formation of nidentity structure, it is necessary that the following conditions exist.

1. The chemical composition of the ligature wire must meet the requirements of mass%.

Scandium - 0,8-1,5
Zirconia - 0,8-1,5

At least one of items

Manganese 0.10
Chrome 0.10
Titanium 0.10
Molybdenum 0.10
Iron 0.30
Silicon to 0.20
Aluminium - rest

2. In the manufacture of modifying ligature wire Al-Sc-Zr in the crystallization process of the workpiece, from which they will produce Dore bars, the cooling rate in the temperature range of crystallization must be greater than 50 deg/sec, and the melt before casting should pereg avatisa to temperatures above 850°C.

3. On the final operations in the production of Dore bars from bystrozakristallizovannykh procurement use cold deformation.

Proposed modifying ligature rod Al-Sc-Zr is still the only one that is capable of extremely grind grain structure of ingots up to formation of nidentity patterns. Introduction ligature rod in an aluminum melt should be carried out with such speed that the content of scandium and zirconium ingot cast alloy was increased by no more than 0.02% of each component. This amount of scandium and zirconium enough to utterly crush the grain structure of the ingot, that is, to form nidentity structure. Getting ingot continuous casting with nidentity structure and crushed particles of excess phases crystallization of origin provides the following benefits and advantages.

1. Dramatically reduces the propensity for hot cracking during casting of ingots of aluminum alloys.

2. Decreases the tendency of the bars to cold cracks after casting.

3. Increasing technological plasticity of the ingots as they are processed pressure - forging, rolling and pressing.

4. Increased complex service properties of the finished semi-finished products (extrusions, forgings, sheets, forgings, plates), obtained the bars with nidentity structure.

Nature's strongest modifying action of Dore bars Al-Sc-Zr is that in an aluminum melt with ligature wire are dispersed particles of intermetallic compounds of Al3(Sc, Zr), the crystal lattice which has an almost full-sized structural compliance of the crystal lattice of aluminum. Therefore particles of Al3(Sc, Zr) have a strong seed for crystallization of grains of the aluminum solution, i.e. particles of Al3(Sc, Zr) are the active centers of crystallization of grains of solid aluminum solution. In addition, particle-germ-Al3(Sc, Zr) have good wettability with aluminum melt, which increases their bare action. Retrieving ligature wire using a high cooling rate during crystallization causes a dispersion of particles of Al3(Sc, Zr) and leads to the emergence of a large number of potential centers of crystallization of aluminum grains in the casting of ingots. Experiments show that the introduction into the melt 0,001-0,01% Sc and Zr with ligature wire Al-Sc-Zr provides the ultimate grinding grain ingot structure, i.e. the formation of nidentity structure.

Example.

The continuous casting method was obtained ingot with a diameter of 304 mm alloy 1960 following the actual chemical composition(table 1).

The melt was prepared in an electric resistance furnace with a capacity of 1 t half of the melt was cast using a serial ligature wire Al-Ti5-B1, and the second half using the proposed ligature wire Al-Sc-Zr, with the content of 1.2% Sc, and 1.15% Zr. Ligature wire was obtained from an ingot continuous casting of 20 mm in diameter, cast in electromagnetic casting mold with a cooling rate in the temperature range of crystallization of about 200 deg/sec. The superheat temperature of the melt before casting was about 1100°C. the Melt was protected from oxidation with momostenango gas. The ingot was annealed, and with the help of rotary forging and subsequent cold drawing received ligature rod with a good clean surface with a diameter of 9.7 mm

Ingots with a diameter of 305 mm, molded with the application of the proposed ligature wire Al-Sc-Zr, had smooth Malashenkova surface practically without Nikitin and not flows. Grain structure of ingots - nidentity, with a grain size of about 70 microns.

Ingots cast using known ligature wire Al-Ti5-B1 had a rough surface with small not-waves. The structure of the ingot - Serena-dendritic, with a grain size of about 350 microns and the size of dendritic cells about 70 microns. The ingot with nidentity structure had a higher density due to the lower porosity and significantly smaller (~ 10 times) inclusion of excess phases, occurring in the form of layers at the grain boundaries.

The bars immediately after casting homogenized at a temperature of 460°C, 24 h, and then cooled in air.

In the process of pressing temperature was increased to 70-90°C due to the selection of heat deformation.

The flow rate during the extrusion ingots with nidentity structure was about 2.0 m/min, and the use of ingots with the usual serenno-dendritic structure - 0.8 m/min
