Direct Chill Casting Process

High strength aluminum alloys Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-(0.1) Ni produced by semi-direct chill casting process were homogenized at different conditions then conducted heat treatment process which comprised pre-aging at 120°C for 24 h, retrogression at 180°C for 30 min, and then re-aging at 120°C for 24 h. Microstructural studies showed that add Ni (0.1 wt %) to the alloy will be forming Ni-rich phases such as AlCuNi, AlNi, AlNiFe and AlMgNi which provide a dispersive strengthening affected in the solid-solution and the subsequent heat treatments. The results showed that by this three-step process of heat treatments, the mechanical properties of aluminum alloys Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-(0.1) Ni were substantially improved. The highest attain for the ultimate tensile strength and Vickers hardness for the alloy sample after applied the retrogression and reaging process is about 545 MPa and 237 HV respectively.

High Strength Aluminum Alloys

Aufgrund ihrer geringen Kaltumformbarkeit werden hochfeste Aluminiumlegierungen in temperaturunterstützten Prozessrouten umgeformt. Bei mehrstufigen Prozessen führt dies zu komplexen und störanfälligen Prozessfolgen. Eine Umformung im W-Temper-Zustand vereinfacht die Temperaturführung und steigert die Robustheit. Die hierbei möglichen Prozessführungen sowie die Einflüsse der relevanten Prozessparameter (Zeit und Abschreckmethode) sind Inhalt dieses Beitrags.   Due to their low cold formability, high-strength aluminum alloys are formed in temperature-supported process routes. This leads to complex and failure-prone process sequences in multi-stage processes. Forming in the W-Temper state simplifies temperature control and increases robustness. This paper deals with the possible process control as well as the influences of the relevant process parameters (time and quenching method).

High Strength Aluminum Alloys

High strength aluminum alloys will enhancing mechanical properties always plays a major role in controlling microstructure of cast and processed alloy. The desire for more efficient aircraft materials has fueled research of aluminum AA-2xxx and AA7xxx alloys. In these alloys were rolled at cold rolling and at cryorolling to 80 % thickness reductions and an attempt was made to evaluate the optical-microstructural variation and the variation in tensile properties of these aluminum alloys. Cryorolled alloy also exhibited better hardness and strength compared to cold alloy due to suppressed thermal recovery. Coldrolled alloy showed more necking percentage compared to cryorolled for rolling reductions of 80% and more formability was observed.

High Strength Aluminum Alloys

The results of the effect of scandium alloying of additive wires such as SvАМg4 and SvАМg63 on the structure and mechanical properties of welded joints of sheets and plates of 1420 alloy in mechanized single-passing and manual multi-pass welding are presented. It is shown that the introduction of 0.17...0.25 % scandium in the SvАМg4 and SvАМg63 filling wires contributes to decrease in the cracking rate and significant increase in the critical rate of deformation of the sample during welding on the МVТU sample. The level of microporosities and their location in multi-pass welding of plates of 1420 alloy depend on the magnesium content in the filling wire. The alloying of the SvАМg4 and SvАМg63 filling wires by scandium increases the ultimate strength of both the welding joint as whole and the weld metal.

High Strength Aluminum Alloys

In modern car bodies lightweight structures are used to achieve a reduction of energy consumption and CO2-emissions. One of the most important lightweight materials is aluminum and its alloys. Current state of the art in automotive industry is utilizing precipitation hardenable aluminum alloys of the 6000 series whereas the crash-relevant strength is achieved by artificial ageing during the paint drying process. Due to newly developed coatings which provide faster curing at lower temperatures, post-forming ageing of the 6xxx alloys to satisfactory strength levels becomes more difficult. The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility of employing high strength aluminum alloys of the 7000 series in order to reduce artificial ageing time and temperature while keeping required strength. Within this contribution, the influence of pre-straining and subsequent heat treatment on mechanical properties will be presented.

High Strength Aluminum Alloys

In the present investigation, the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) process was employed to form aluminum oxide coating layers to enhance corrosion resistance properties of high-strength aluminum alloys. The formed protective coating layers were examined by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and characterized by several electrochemical techniques, including open circuit potential (OCP), linear potentiodynamic polarization (LP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results were reported in comparison with the bare 6061-O aluminum alloy to determine the corrosion performance of the coated 6061-O alloy. The PEO-treated aluminum alloy showed substantially higher corrosion resistance in comparison with the untreated substrate material. A relationship was found between the coating formation stage, process parameters and the thickness of the oxide-formed layers, which has a measurable influence on enhancing corrosion resistance properties. This study demonstrates promising results of utilizing PEO process to enhance corrosion resistance properties of high-strength aluminum alloys and could be recommended as a method used in industrial applications.
