Definitions

  • the present invention relates to intermetallic alloys composed of the main components aluminum, chromium and silicon, which are subjected to a special heat treatment, a process for their production and their use as a structural material, in particular at temperatures up to 720 K, or as a protective layer for other structural materials.

  • From DE-OS 23 33 198 aluminum alloys are known which can contain up to 12% silicon and 3 to 15% chromium, which solidify by a special process and are then compressed in the range from 200 to 500 ° C.
  • intermetallic alloys which predominantly consist of several intermetallic phases or intermediate phases, already have good ductility.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of providing intermetallic alloys composed of the main components aluminum, chromium and silicon.
  • the present invention thus relates to intermetallic alloys with an approximate SiCrAl7 composition with a predominant proportion of the structure comprising one or more intermetallic phases or intermediate phases
  • the alloys according to the invention have high strength and rigidity combined with good corrosion resistance.
  • the alloys according to the invention are intermetallic alloys which can be distinguished from supersaturated mixed crystal alloys obtained by rapid solidification. In the latter, the special mechanical properties are obtained by the precipitation of small amounts of the smallest crystal structures (intermetallic compounds) in supersaturated mixed crystals. In contrast, the special properties of the alloys according to the invention are based solely on the properties of the intermetallic phase (s). If mixed crystals are still contained in the alloys according to the invention after the heat treatment above 820 K, these small amounts of finely divided admixture are of no great importance for the mechanical properties of the alloy.
  • the alloys according to the invention have a specific weight between 3.0 and 3.3 g / cm 2.
  • the alloys according to the invention consist either of 19.6% by weight Cr, 10.7% by weight Si, 2% by weight Ni and 0.6% by weight Cu, the rest Al, or from 18.8 wt .-% Cr, 10.1 wt .-% Si and 3.9 wt .-% Ag, balance AI.

  • the present invention further relates to a process for the production of the alloys described above, which is characterized in that the alloys are initially allowed to solidify rapidly after melting to form a fine crystalline structure, and this structure is then subjected to heat treatment at a temperature above 820 K. undergoes.
  • the fine-crystalline structure is transformed into a structure consisting predominantly of several intermetallic phases or intermediate phases. Heating and cooling rates are only of subordinate importance in the heat treatment according to the invention.
  • the alloys are initially quickly solidified after melting, for example by air atomization or plasma spray. After rapid cooling, the fine-grained structure consists of supersaturated mixed crystals and intermetallic phases with a low number of atoms.
  • the rapidly solidified alloys are compacted and processed by the known methods.
  • the heat treatment is carried out in a temperature range from 820 K to 900 K.
  • the quantitative and qualitative composition of the intermetallic phases or intermediate phases present in the temperature range described above after the heat treatment are influenced by the choice of the temperature and the heat treatment time for a given chemical composition. Rapidly solidified particles can be processed further after compacting using known methods. In general, depending on the thickness and size of the components, the heat treatment time is between 30 and 300 minutes. The treatment can be carried out in one or more stages. The choice of the method for rapid solidification from the molten state has a comparable influence. The proportion of supersaturated mixed crystals and their degree of supersaturation as well as the proportion of intermetallic phases with a low number of atoms after solidification can be influenced here. As is known to the person skilled in the art, the choice of the method for rapid solidification and the chosen heat treatment will depend on the desired properties and economic considerations.
  • the present invention relates to the use of the intermetallic alloys described above as a structural material, in particular for use at temperatures up to 720 K, and to the use of the intermetallic alloys according to the invention as a protective layer on other structural materials, again in particular for use at temperatures up to 720 K.
