まず、アルミニウム線材の組成について説明する。アルミニウム線材の組成は、3.00質量%以下のFe、0.20質量%以下のSiを含み、さらにCu、Mn、Mg、Zn、Ti、B、VおよびNiからなる群より選択される1種以上の元素を合計で0.010質量%以上0.500質量%以下含み、残部がAlおよび不可避不純物からなる。
アルミニウム線材の組成は、さらに、Cu、Mn、Mg、Zn、Ti、B、VおよびNiからなる群より選択される1種以上の元素を含有することができる。これらの成分は、強度と導電率のバランスを考慮すると、合計で0.010質量%以上0.500質量%以下含まれる。以下に、各副成分についてそれぞれ説明する。
アルミニウム線材の組成について、上述した成分以外の残部は、Al(アルミニウム)および不可避不純物である。不可避不純物は、製造工程上、不可避的に含まれうることもあり、含有量によってはアルミニウム線材の導電率および強度を低下させる要因にもなりうるため、不可避不純物の含有量は少ないことが好ましい。不可避不純物としては、例えば、Li、Crなどの元素が挙げられる。不可避不純物の含有量の上限は、好ましくは0.05質量%以下、より好ましくは0.01質量%以下である。
次に、アルミニウム線材の導電率について説明する。アルミニウム線材は、高い導電性を有する。アルミニウム線材の導電率は、端子間距離を200mmとし、20℃(±0.5℃)に保たれた恒温槽中で、4端子法により抵抗値を測定し、アルミニウム線材の断面積から、算出することができる。アルミニウム線材の導電率は、55%IACS以上、好ましくは62%IACS以上である。
次に、アルミニウム線材の結晶方位差について説明する。アルミニウム線材の長手方向に垂直な断面(以下、横断面ともいう)における25μm×60μmの領域(以下、単に領域ともいう)内において、隣接する結晶粒との結晶方位差が1°超15°以下の部分を全て足し合わせた長さ(以下、単に長さともいう)が、0.6mm以上4.8mm以下である。このように、アルミニウム線材の横断面における上記領域内では、隣接する結晶粒との結晶方位差が1°超15°以下の部分、すなわち小角粒界は、上記範囲内の長さを有する。
また、アルミニウム線材の長手方向に垂直な断面の上記領域に対する、結晶方位差が1°超15°以下のKAM値の割合は、好ましくは0.50以上0.90以下である。
また、アルミニウム線材の横断面における平均結晶粒径は、好ましくは0.10μm以上10.00μm以下である。
また、上記のアルミニウム線材を素線として複数本で撚り合わせてなるアルミニウム撚線でも、上記のアルミニウム線材と同様に、圧着端子でかしめられても、圧着端子とのカシメ部における導電性、圧着部強度、および耐衝撃性の低下を抑制できる。1.4mm以上2.9mm以下の線径を有するアルミニウム線材を19本以上61本以下で撚り合わせてなるアルミニウム撚線では、カシメ部における導電性、圧着部強度、および耐衝撃性の低下がさらに抑制される。特に、上記範囲内の線径を有するアルミニウム線材が19本以上であると、アルミニウム撚線の柔軟性が増加するため、アルミニウム撚線に対する作業性を向上できる。また、上記範囲内の線径を有するアルミニウム線材が61本以下であると、アルミニウム撚線を構成するアルミニウム線材の素線切れの発生を抑制できる。アルミニウム撚線を構成するアルミニウム線材の本数およびアルミニウム線材の線径は、アルミニウム撚線の通電電流値や耐熱温度など、アルミニウム撚線の用途に応じて、適宜選択される。
また、上記複数のアルミニウム線材を撚り合わせてなる上記アルミニウム撚線と、アルミニウム撚線の外周を被覆する筒状の絶縁体と、絶縁体の外周を被覆するシースとを有する被覆電線は、上記のアルミニウム線材やアルミニウム撚線と同様に、圧着端子でかしめられても、圧着端子とのカシメ部における導電性、圧着部強度、および耐衝撃性の低下を抑制できる。さらに、被覆電線は、絶縁体およびシースを有するため、絶縁性および耐熱性が良好である。絶縁体がポリエチレンやポリプロピレンなどのポリオレフィン、ポリ塩化ビニルなどから構成されると、被覆電線の絶縁性はさらに良好である。また、シースが塩化ビニル樹脂、耐燃ポリエチレンから構成されると、被覆電線の耐熱性はさらに良好である。
次に、上記アルミニウム線材の製造方法について説明する。まず、溶解炉にて所定の成分に調整した溶湯を用いて、連続鋳造圧延機で線径5mm以上10mm以下の荒引線を得る。その後、再結晶駆動力を調整する目的で、荒引線に対して、加熱温度550℃以上630℃以下かつ加熱時間0.5時間以上3時間以内の条件で、第一焼鈍を行う。続いて、50%以上99%以下の加工率で冷間伸線を行う。続いて、歪量および結晶粒径を調整するために、加熱温度150℃以上400℃以下および加熱時間1秒以上20秒以内の条件で、線材と加熱体とを接触させる接触式焼鈍を行う。こうして、アルミニウム線材を得ることができる。その後、撚線機にて複数のアルミニウム線材を束ねてアルミニウム撚線とし、そのアルミニウム撚線に対して押出機にて絶縁体被覆を施し、さらにその外周にシースを施し、被覆電線を得ることができる。さらに、被覆電線の末端の絶縁体およびシースを剥いでアルミニウム撚線を部分的に露出させ、接続部材である端子の管部に挿入して管部外周から圧力をかけて圧着し、圧着端子付き被覆電線を得ることができる。さらに、上記被覆電線を3本撚り合わせてCVTケーブルを得ることができる。
表1に示す組成の溶湯を用いて、表1に示す結晶組織を満たすような条件で第一焼鈍、冷間伸線、および接触式焼鈍を行って、表2に示す線径、本数のアルミニウム線材を用いて撚り合わせ、撚線、絶縁体被覆、シース工程を経て被覆電線とし、被覆電線の両端の絶縁体およびシースを剥いでアルミニウム撚線を部分的に露出させ、露出部分に端子を圧着し、圧着端子付き被覆電線を得た。なお、接続部材としての端子には、アルミニウム製端子を使用し、端子の管部内側には、露出したアルミニウム撚線との電気的接触を確保するため亜鉛粉を含む油であるコンパウンドを封止した。圧着は94%の圧縮率とした。圧縮率とは、圧着前のアルミニウム導体の断面積に対する、圧着後のアルミニウム導体の断面積の割合のことである。断面は、端子長手方向に対して垂直に切断した圧着部中央部分であり、圧着深さに対応して圧縮率が定まるように製造されるため、事前に圧縮率を求めておいた。
Feを3.50質量%含有し、連続鋳造圧延機で線径9.5mmの荒引線を得た後、加熱温度550℃、加熱時間2時間の焼鈍を行った。続いて、97%の加工率で冷間伸線を行い、加熱温度300℃、加熱時間10秒の接触式焼鈍を行った。その後の工程は、実施例1と同様に実施して、圧着端子付き被覆電線を得た。
Siを0.50質量%含有し、表1に示す組成にてMn、Mg、Ti、BおよびVを合計で0.530質量%含み、それ以外は比較例1と同様に作製した。
表1に示す組成にて97%の加工率で冷間伸線を行ったところまでは比較例1と同様にし、その後、接触式焼鈍は施さずに仕上げた。その後の工程は、実施例1と同様に実施して、圧着端子付き被覆電線を得た。
表1に示す組成にて加熱温度550℃、加熱時間2時間の焼鈍を行ったところまでは比較例1と同様にし、その後、線径1.5mmまで伸線した。続いて、加熱温度300℃、加熱時間2時間の焼鈍を行った後、線径1.4mmまで伸線した。その後、300℃10秒の接触式焼鈍を実施した。その後の工程は、実施例1と同様に実施して、圧着端子付き被覆電線を得た。
表1に示す組成にて97%の加工率で冷間伸線を行ったところまでは比較例1と同様にし、その後、550℃10秒の接触式焼鈍を実施した。その後の工程は、実施例1と同様に実施して、圧着端子付き被覆電線を得た。
上記実施例および比較例で得られた圧着端子付き被覆電線の圧着端子でかしめられた部分における断面積減少や圧着端子管部内側とアルミニウム撚線との接触状態の影響の評価をするため、圧着端子とのカシメ部を含む試料を用いて下記の測定および評価を行った。結果を表1および表3に示す。
上記領域内における上記長さは、圧着端子付き被覆電線に対して、高分解能走査型分析電子顕微鏡(日本電子株式会社製、JSM-7001FA)に付属するEBSD検出器(TSL社製、OIM5.0 HIKARI)を用いて連続して測定した結晶方位データから解析ソフト(TSL社製、OIM Analysis)を用いて算出した結晶方位解析データから得た。

平均結晶粒径は、圧着端子付き被覆電線に対して、高分解能走査型分析電子顕微鏡(日本電子株式会社製、JSM-7001FA)に付属するEBSD検出器(TSL社製、OIM5.0 HIKARI)を用いて連続して測定した結晶方位データから解析ソフト(TSL社製、OIM Analysis)を用いて算出した結晶方位解析データから得た。
圧着端子付き被覆電線を用いて、電線長を200mmとし、20℃(±0.5℃)に保たれた恒温槽中で両端子に電流を流し、4端子法により抵抗値を測定し、アルミニウム撚線の断面積から、アルミニウム線材の導電率を算出した。なお、両端子自体の抵抗は除いた。このような導電率の測定を3本の圧着端子付き被覆電線に対して行い、3つの測定値の平均値を導電率として算出した。導電率について、以下のランク付けを行った。導電率が大きいほど、良好であり、Cランクは不良である。
B:導電率が55%IACS以上62%IACS未満
C:導電率が55%IACS未満
圧着部強度として、圧着端子付き被覆電線の公称破断強度を測定した。電線長を200mmとし、両端子をチャックにて固定し、引張試験を実施した。破断までに要した最大の力(N)に対し、アルミニウム導体の断面積(mm2)で割り、公称破断強度(N/mm2)を求め、以下のランク付けを行った。なお、公称破断強度は圧着のばらつきや測定のばらつき等が考えられるため、測定精度を考慮して5N/mm2刻みで算出した(すなわち、例えば90N/mm2以上~95N/mm2未満の場合、90N/mm2と表記)。公称破断強度が大きいほど、カシメ部における圧着部強度の低下が抑制でき、Cランクは不良である。
B:公称破断強度が90N/mm2以上110N/mm2未満
C:公称破断強度が90N/mm2未満
耐衝撃性として、圧着端子付き被覆電線を用いて、衝撃吸収エネルギーを測定した。具体的には、まず、片側圧着端子付き被覆電線を1m用意し、絶縁被覆、シースを剥いで片側圧着端子付きアルミニウム撚線とした。圧着端子が接続されていないアルミニウム撚線端部に重りを付けた。続いて、圧着端子を重力方向に垂直になるように万力で固定し、重りを圧着端子の高さまで持ち上げ、かつ、アルミニウム撚線も圧着端子の高さ以上に上げた後、重りを離し、アルミニウム撚線の長さに相当する1m分の自由落下を行った。圧着端子への負荷のばらつきを抑えるため、重りを持ち上げて離す直前の重りと圧着端子との間隔は、アルミニウム撚線の直径の10倍以内とした。重りを種々に付け替えて上記試験を行い、圧着端子に接続されているアルミニウム撚線の素線が1本も断線しない最大の重りの重量を記録し、その時の位置エネルギーをアルミニウム撚線の断面積で割って、重りの自由落下に対するアルミニウム撚線の衝撃吸収エネルギーを算出した。衝撃吸収エネルギー値が0.05J/mm2刻みになるように重りを選定して試験した。衝撃吸収エネルギーについて、以下のランク付けを行った。衝撃吸収エネルギーが大きいほど、カシメ部における耐衝撃性の低下が抑制できる。
