Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to a nano dispersion copper alloy with high air-tightness and low free oxygen content and a brief manufacturing process thereof, and more particularly, relates to a Cu—Al2O3—CaO—La2O3 nano-sized dispersion copper alloy with high air-tightness and low free oxygen content and a brief manufacturing process thereof. The present disclosure belongs to the field of manufacturing process of a nano dispersion copper alloy.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A nano dispersion strengthened copper alloy is a novel structural functional material with excellent comprehensive physical and mechanical properties, and also has high strength, high conductivity and good high-temperature softening resistance.


In the prior art, a Cu—Al2O3 nano dispersion strengthened copper alloy is mainly prepared by an internal oxidation method, and a specific manufacturing process is as follows: after smelting a Cu—Al alloy having appropriate components, gas atomization and powder spraying are performed, then the powder is mixed with an appropriate amount of oxidant, the mixture is heated in a sealed container for internal oxidation, a solute element Al is preferentially oxidized by oxygen diffused and infiltrated on a surface to generate Al2O3, then composite powder is reduced in hydrogen, residual Cu2O is removed, and then the powder is sheathed, vacuumized, extruded or hot-forged to form into shape. At present, the Cu—Al2O3 dispersion strengthened copper alloy prepared by the above process in China has a room temperature tensile strength ranging from 246 MPa to 405 MPa and an electric conductivity ranging from 83.4 IACS to 92.9 IACS after hydrogen annealing at 900° C. for 1 hour. However, a part of oxygen diffused into a copper matrix is difficult to be completely removed by hydrogen reduction, and due to the incongruity deformations of Al2O3 and Cu, micropores are easily generated during hot extrusion and subsequent cold working. Therefore, the Cu—Al2O3 nano dispersion copper alloy prepared by the internal oxidation method used in the prior art still has the problems of high residual free oxygen content and low air-tightness.


With rapid development of aerospace, electronic communication and other fields, a higher demand is put forward for the “quality” of dispersion oxygen-free copper with high conductivity and heat resistance. In addition to the high heat resistance, high strength and high conductivity, the dispersion copper is required to have low amount of residual free oxygen and high air-tightness. If 100 ppm oxygen is contained in 100 g copper, 14 cm3 high-pressure water vapor can be generated during hydrogen annealing at 900° C. to crack the copper and reduce the air-tightness. At present, a free oxygen content of the Cu—Al2O3 dispersion strengthened copper alloy prepared in China is more than 56.1 ppm, and a diameter expansion of ordinary Cu—Al2O3 dispersion strengthened copper alloy of Φ24 mm before and after hydrogen burning at 900° C. for 1 hour is more than 0.01 mm. If a residual free oxygen content in dispersion copper is high, free oxygen is slowly released under a high-vacuum condition, poisoning a cathode and causing device failure.


At present, the brief manufacturing process of the internal oxidation method for the Cu—Al2O3 nano dispersion copper alloy with high air-tightness and low free oxygen content has not been publicly reported.

According to the brief manufacturing process of the nano dispersion copper alloy with high air-tightness and low free oxygen content of the present disclosure, the diameter of the prepared nano dispersion copper alloy of ϕ20 mm is changed by 0.00 μm before and after annealing with hydrogen at 900° C. for 1 hour through measurement by a spiral micrometer. The present disclosure has the following advantages.


According to the present disclosure, aiming at the problems of high free oxygen content and low air-tightness of the Cu—Al2O3 nano dispersion copper alloy in China at present, a gas-solid secondary reduction technology is added in the traditional internal oxidation technology, and in combination with a synergistic effect of a vacuum medium-temperature creep deformation technology, the Cu—Al2O3—CaO—La2O3 nano dispersion copper alloy with low oxygen, high density, high strength and high conductivity is prepared.


The gas-solid secondary reduction technology refers to that, on the basis of performing traditional hydrogen reduction on the internally oxidized powder, that is, gaseous reduction, a solid reduction technology is added, that is, a proper amount of Cu-0.1 wt % Ca-0.1 wt % La alloy powder is added to the reduced Cu—Al2O3 powder. A characteristic that Ca and La react easily with oxygen is utilized, adding the two elements to the alloy can significantly reduce the free oxygen content in the alloy, and nano-sized CaO and La2O3 can also play a role in dispersion strengthening of the alloy. The vacuum medium-temperature creep deformation refers to that the rotationally forged bar is placed in the sheath, and then the sheath is vacuumized, sealed and placed in the nitrogen atmosphere with the pressure ranging from 40 Mpa to 60 Mpa at 450° C. to 550° C. for heat preservation and pressure treatment for 3 hours to 5 hours to cause creep deformation of the alloy, thus eliminating micropores and microcracks generated inside the alloy during preparation and processing, and improving the density of the alloy.


According to the present disclosure, +Ca hydrogen primary reduction and La solid secondary reduction technologies are adopted, so that the prepared alloy has low residual oxygen, and meanwhile, the nano-sized CaO and La2O3 can also play a role in dispersion strengthening.


Due to the incongruity deformations of Al2O3 and Cu, micropores are easily generated during hot extrusion and subsequent cold working, thus affecting the density. Through rotary forging deformation, a pressure stress is applied to an extruded material, so that a part of Al2O3 at grain boundaries can enter the copper matrix to weld a part of holes; a rotationally forged material is placed in the sheath, then the sheath is vacuumized and maintained in the nitrogen atmosphere with the pressure ranging from 40 Mpa to 60 Mpa at 450° C. to 550° C. for 3 hours to 5 hours. The microcracks are healed through creep deformation, so that the density and the air tightness of the alloy are improved.


The dispersion copper prepared by the present disclosure has the advantages of low free oxygen content of less than or equal to 15 ppm, high dimensional stability, good air tightness, and an air leakage rate less than or equal to 1.0×10−10 Pa m3/s after hydrogen annealing. The dispersion copper is suitable for industrial production. In addition, the material made from the dispersion copper can be used as a variety of sealing device materials, such as an electric vacuum shell sealing device and a high-voltage direct-current relay for a novel energy automobile.
