The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a copper alloy electrode material for high strength conductivity. This type of alloy is used as an electrode material in resistance welding or as a material for electrical equipment, and its performance is required to have good mechanical strength in addition to high electrical conductivity. A chromium-copper alloy is well known as such an alloy. Furthermore, chromium zirconium alloys containing a larger amount of Zr to improve strength are also known, and all of these alloys are manufactured using precipitation hardening and work hardening phenomena. In other words, the manufacturing method is solution treatment → quenching → cold working →
Consists of aging processing. In particular, since the precipitation phenomenon controls the characteristic values, the greater the amount of solid solution Cr and Zr in the quenched state, the better the mechanical strength after aging treatment. However, in order to achieve this, it is necessary to raise the solution treatment temperature sufficiently and at the same time increase the cooling rate during quenching. The strength after aging also fluctuates due to fluctuations. For this reason, strict control of processing conditions is required, which inconveniences an increase in manufacturing costs, and it is difficult to provide uniform performance over the entire length. This invention was made against this background, and aims to stabilize product quality and rationalize the manufacturing process by studying the alloy composition in detail and improving the quenching sensitivity. The main points are Cr0.3~1.5% (weight%, same below), Zr0.03~0.1% (excluding 0.1%), Si0.01~
This is a method for manufacturing a copper alloy electrode material for high-strength conductivity, characterized in that an alloy consisting of 0.08% balance Cu is solution-treated and then air-cooled. To explain this in detail, the constant temperature treatment curve (T-T-P curve) shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 can be used as a method for evaluating the quenching sensitivity. Figure 1 shows the isoconductivity curve (conductivity
IACS: 40%), and Figure 2 is the isohardness curve (hardness H R B: 80) of constant temperature treated material after aging treatment, and 1 to 4 in the figure represent alloys with the compositions shown in Table 1. . The curve in Figure 1 above is an alloy ingot (outer diameter 254mmφ)
Hot extrusion processing (temperature 950℃, outer diameter 35mm, length
5500 mm) → heat treatment (950°C) → held in a salt bath furnace at 400 to 950°C for 10 to 3000 seconds → cooled with water and measured electrical conductivity (IACS). In addition, the curve in Figure 2 is 60% of that which has gone through the above process.
After cold working (outer diameter 22mm), it was aged at 475°C for 5 hours. However, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, all alloys have a so-called nose (NOSE) in which the precipitation rate is high in the high temperature region (800 to 850℃) and the low temperature region (500 to 600℃). When cooling after solution treatment, it is necessary to cool in a shorter time than the time required to reach these noses. The critical cooling rate after solution treatment must be determined based on the high temperature nose that affects the hardness value after aging treatment. The alloy according to the present invention (sample No. 4) has a smaller critical cooling rate after solution treatment than the conventional alloys (sample Nos. 1 to 3). Table 2 shows the critical cooling rate determined from the constant temperature treatment curve. This is extrusion processing (outer diameter 35mm, length 5500mm) → 950℃ solution treatment - T-T-P treatment → water cooling → 60% cold working (outer diameter 22mm)
mm) → 475℃×5hr aging treatment material, hardness H R
It was determined from the time required to reach the high temperature side nose of the T-T-P treated material to obtain B75 or higher. In addition, the hardness, electrical conductivity, etc. listed in Table 2 show the measurement results for samples of the same composition that were subjected to solution treatment at 950°C → natural air cooling → 60% cold working → aging treatment at 475°C for 5 hours. However, in Table 2, the alloy according to the present invention (sample No. EG) has a critical cooling rate of 10°C/second or less, and Cr, Zr, etc. do not easily precipitate during air cooling and are in a solid solution state. I'll show you that. In other words, in the case of a copper alloy with an outer diameter of about 35 mmφ, the cooling rate by water cooling is 45 to 65 °C/sec, and in the case of air cooling, it is 35 °C/sec.
~5°C/sec, but as mentioned above, the critical cooling rate
The alloy at 10° C./sec is sufficiently solid solution treated as it is or by forced air cooling. Figure 3 shows the conductivity of the samples listed in Table 2, in which the conductivity after air cooling was measured at the head, center and tail in the longitudinal direction, in order to check the uniformity of performance. According to samples NO, F, and G (F is a comparative example) containing a specific amount, uniform performance can be imparted over the entire length. Here, samples NO, C, F, G shown in Table 2
(C and F are comparative materials, G is this invention material),
When each rod was manufactured using the following rod manufacturing method and a spot welding test was conducted, the invented material G was superior to comparative material C in all respects, while comparative material F was superior in terms of spot life, welding limit current,
In terms of the amount of expansion of the tip diameter, it was confirmed that it was excellent as an electrode material for spot welding. (1) Rod manufacturing method Sample No. CFG was formed into a billet of 68φ x 200mm, heated at 920°C for 1 hour, extruded to 20φ with an indirect extruder, and air-cooled by blowing cold air to the tip of the extrusion. After cold drawing this extruded rod to 16φ, it was aged at 475° C. for 5 hours. Their performance is shown in Table 3. (2) Spot welding test An electrode with a tip diameter of 16φ and a tip curvature radius of 20R as shown in FIG. 4 was formed from the above rod, and a continuous spot welding test was conducted under the following welding conditions. Object to be welded 0.8mm thick galvanized steel plate on both sides (Plating coverage:
45g/45g/ m2 ) 0.8mm thick mild steel plate cooling water 31/min Pressure force 200Kgf Dotting conditions Dotting speed 1 point/sec, 40 seconds pause after 20 points,
Galvanized steel plate and mild steel plate are replaced every 20 dots Current is 10000A. Current application time 10 cycles (50Hz) (3) Evaluation method (a) Number of continuous dots (life) based on nugget formation status Tensile shear test every 80 dots The diameter of the nugget used to collect the pieces must be 4√ (T is the plate thickness) or more. (b) Welding limit current welding test For the samples before and after 200 dots, the welding current was increased by 7000A to 500A at a pressure of 200Kgf. (c) The spread of the electrode tip diameter, the crack length, and the alloy layer thickness are evaluated for the sample after 200 points, and the crack length is evaluated for each point of each sample. The results are shown in Table 4, and the present invention is a copper alloy electrode material, especially a chip for spot welding, containing 0.03 to 0.1% Zr.
(excluding 0.1%) was found to have a significant effect. Specifying the alloy composition has an important meaning in achieving such effects. In other words, 0.3 to 1.5% Cr is used to exhibit precipitation hardening, and if it is less than 0.3%, no effect can be expected, and if it exceeds 1.5%, the density of huge primary Cr increases and the structure becomes heterogeneous. invite Zr0.03~0.1% (excluding 0.1%) improves strength, heat resistance and critical cooling rate, and 0.03%
If it is less than 0.1%, it will reduce the conductivity without having any effect. And 0.01 to 0.08% of Si is for further improving the critical cooling rate; if it is less than 0.01%, it has no effect, and if it exceeds 0.08%, the conductivity decreases. As described above, the present invention has advantages over conventional manufacturing methods in that it uses air cooling with a lower critical cooling rate to stabilize product quality and streamline the manufacturing process without requiring strict control of processing conditions. It has the following effects.
