In this paper, the mechanical properties of several aluminum alloys are obtained experimentally at different temperatures, from room temperature to about 4000C by using the Gleeble 1500 thermomechanical system. Besides, the thermal softening characteristics, effects of heating rate and temperature holding time are discussed in details. It is found that the strength of LF6, a kind of antirust aluminum alloy, is not sensitive to the heating rate (0.1-1000K/s) and temperature holding time (0-1h). However, the mechanical behaviors of other alloys depend on these factors very obviously. At last, these phenomena are discussed in the viewpoint of the microstructures and techniques of ageing strengthening of these alloys.

In this work, alumina (Al2O3) ceramics were prepared using an environmentally friendly slip casting method. To this end, highly concentrated (70 wt.%) aqueous suspensions of alumina (Al2O3) were prepared with different amounts of the ammonium salt of a polycarboxylic acid, Dolapix CE 64, as an electrosteric dispersant. The stability of highly concentrated Al2O3 aqueous suspensions was monitored by viscosity measurements. Green bodies (ceramics before sintering) were obtained by pouring the stable Al2O3 aqueous suspensions into dry porous plaster molds. The obtained Al2O3 ceramic green bodies were sintered in the electric furnace. Analysis of the effect of three sintering parameters (sintering temperature, heating rate and holding time) on the density of alumina ceramics was performed using the response surface methodology (RSM), based on experimental data obtained according to Box–Behnken experimental design, using the software Design-Expert. From the statistical analysis, linear and nonlinear models with added first-order interaction were developed for prediction and optimization of density-dependent variables: sintering temperature, heating rate and holding time.

A study on vacuum diffusion bonding between as-extruded AZ31 magnesium alloy and 7075 aluminum alloy was carried out according to atomic diffusion theory. Recrystallization annealing was used for grain refinement of AZ31 magnesium alloy and 7075 aluminum alloy before the diffusion welding. The quality of the bonding joints was checked by shear test, micro-hardness test and microstructure analysis. Experimental results showed that the welding temperature and holding time have a great effect on the joint shear strength. The maximum of shear strength was 38.41MPa under the temperature of 470°C and the holding time of 60min. The result of micro-hardness measurement showed that the micro-hardness of welded joints was maximum. Three kinds of intermetallic compounds, Mg2A13, MgAl and Mgl7Al12, formed at the interfacial transition zone at 470°C.

The influence of Al-10RE addition, holding time and holding temperature on the microstructures and mechanical properties of ZL203 aluminum alloy has been studied respectively through using the optical microscope and the universal mechanical testing machine. The experimental results lead to the following conclusions. When Al-10RE addition is 1.0%-1.5%, the holding time is 15 minutes and the holding temperature is 730°C-750°C, the microstructure of Zl203 is perfect. With the increase of Al-10RE addition, the mechanical properties including tensile strength, elongation rate and hardness gradually increase. When the Al-10RE addition is 1.0%-1.5%, the mechanical properties reaches maximum. When the Al-10RE addition is above 1.5%, the mechanical properties decrease with the increase of Al-10RE addition.

Prior to the actual sintering process, a dilatometry study is performed to provide basic information and guidelines. This paper studies the effects of three sintering factors: sintering temperature, heating rate and holding time, on the densification rate of Ti-6Al-4V/HA composite parts. According to the in-situ test results, suitable values for the sintering factors can then be established.

The influence of four parameters of two-step aging on the mechanical properties of 6082 aluminum alloy bumper was studied by orthogonal test. The results show that compared with the single stage aging, the two-step aging process can reduce the aging time and improve the production efficiency under the premise of the mechanical properties of the bumper meet the requirements. Among the four aging process parameters, the second stage aging temperature and holding time are the main factors that affect the final results, while the first stage aging temperature and holding time are secondary factors. The most suitable aging process parameters for the 6082 aluminum alloy bumper is (150 °C, 2 h) + (190 °C, 2.5 h). After two-step aging, the grain of the aluminum bumper is small and evenly distributed, leading to good mechanical properties. The generalized experiment shows that the application of the two-step aging process still has some limitations and needs to be further optimized and perfected.
