Production of high quality semi-finished products and castings based on aluminum depends on quality of raw materials, especially master-alloys and alloying elements. Master-alloy could be considered as an...

Mechanical Properties The internal structural changes described previously produce substantial changes in the mechanical properties of aluminum and its alloys. Tensile properties are among those most affected. Work-hardening...

Strain hardening is a natural consequence of most working and forming operation aluminum and its alloys. In pure aluminum and the non-heat-treatable aluminum-manganese and aluminum-magnesium...

The application of high strength aluminum alloys, particularly the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-based 7000-series alloys, could be extended if it were not for their relatively low fracture toughness, and considerable...

The major application of high strength aluminum alloys is in airframe construction. Over the last 50 years, the degree of control of their proportion has been increasing as now insights and test techniques have...

Distortion of heat-treated aluminum forgings during machining has always been a problem. The obvious economic and engineering advantages of large aluminum forgings resulted in the US Air Force heavy...

Sintered aluminum powder alloys have properties quite different from those of material fabricated by conventional techniques. The oxide that forms immediately on the surface of aluminum...

Aluminum castings have played an integral role in the growth of the aluminum industry since its inception in the late 19th century. The first commercial aluminum products were castings...

Aluminum alloys are divided into two major categories: wrought and casting alloys. A further differentiation for each category is based primary on mechanism of property development...

Powder metallurgy (P/M) technology provides a useful means of fabricating net-shape components that enables machining to be minimized, thereby reducing costs. Aluminum P/M alloys can therefore compete...
