Abstract
The present invention relates to the technical field of manufacturing of metal materials, and in particular to a 7000-series aluminum alloy wire for additive manufacturing and a preparation method thereof. The wire was prepared by subjecting an Al—Ti—B intermediate alloy containing TiB2 particles generated in situ to severe plastic deformation to obtain an intermediate alloy containing TiB2 nanoparticles having a particle size of 50-1,000 nm or a mixture of two different particles; using the intermediate alloy containing TiB2 nanoparticles as a matrix raw material, adding other metal or intermediate alloy for smelting to obtain an alloy melt; preparing a wire blank with the alloy melt; subjecting the wire blank to hot rolling, drawing, intermediate annealing and surface treatment to obtain an Al—Zn—Mg—Cu alloy wire reinforced by particles at nano scale or submicron scale.
