Benefits of technology

[0019]Specifically, the above-described high-strength aluminum alloy extruded material can be made as a high-strength extruded material that exhibits excellent corrosion resistance, excellent extrusion productivity and excellent surface quality after extrusion. Furthermore, it can achieve a proof stress of 350 MPa or more due to the synergistic effects of the above specified elements and the metallographic structure cons

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, it has been required to increase the plate thickness and to impart a shape for reinforcement, for example, by forging, which disadvantageously results in low productivity.
However, the aluminum alloy extruded material described in Patent Document 1 has a tensile strength of about 300 MPa, which is an insufficient strength for use in place of iron-based materials.
Specifically, when the aluminum alloy descri

Example

Example 1

[0050]This is an Example for investigating the chemical components (elemental composition) of the above-described high-strength aluminum alloy extruded material. In this Example, alloys (Alloys Nos. A to M) comprising the elements in various amounts as indicated in Table 1 were used to produce samples (Samples Nos. 1 to 13) according to the manufacturing conditions indicated in Table 2, and then strength measurements, metallographic structure observations, surface quality evaluations and corrosion resistance evaluations were carried out on the respective samples. Hereinafter, the conditions for manufacturing the respective samples and the methods for measuring their strength, observing their metallographic structure, evaluating their surface quality and evaluating their corrosion resistance will be explained in further detail.

[0051]Ingots having a diameter of 90 mm and containing the elements indicated in Table 1 were cast using a continuous casting technique. Thereafter, t...

Example 2

[0070]This is an Example for investigating methods for manufacturing the above-described high-strength aluminum alloy extruded material. In this Example, alloy No. A indicated in Table 1 was used to produce samples (Samples Nos. 21 to 39) according to the manufacturing conditions that varied as indicated in Table 4, and then the strength measurements, metallographic structure observations, surface quality evaluations and corrosion resistance evaluations were carried out on the respective samples. In this respect, it is noted that the details of the conditions for manufacturing the respective samples and the methods for measuring their strength, observing their metallographic structure, evaluating their surface quality and evaluating their corrosion resistance are the same as described above in Example 1.

[0071]The evaluation results for the respective samples are indicated in Table 5. It is noted that the evaluation results for the samples that were not judged as being accep...

Furthermore, an area ratio of a fibrous structure in a cross section parallel to an extruding direction during hot extrusion is 95% or more.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 to Japanese Application No. 2012-222943, filed on Oct. 5, 2012, entitled “HIGH-STRENGTH ALUMINUM ALLOY EXTRUDED MATERIAL AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME”. The contents of this application are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to an extruded material formed of a high-strength aluminum alloy.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]A 6000 series aluminum alloy material has excellent strength and corrosion resistance, and is used in applications such as mechanical components, structural members and the like. In recent years, the application of a 6000 series aluminum alloy material to frames, etc. of transportation machines such as automobiles has been considered to reduce the weight of the frames, etc.[0006]Examples of high-strength aluminum alloy materials suitably u...
