Artificial aging is a type of corrosion testing that makes use of variables like sunlight, oxygen, heat and vibration to simulate and hasten the normal process of aging in particular materials.

Selected processing for non-equilibrium light alloys and products

A new class of light or reactive elements and monophase α′-matrix magnesium- and aluminum-based alloys with superior engineering properties, for the latter being based on a homogeneous solute distribution or a corrosion-resistant and metallic shiny surface withstanding aqueous and saline environments and resulting from the control during synthesis of atomic structure over microstructure to net shape of the final product, said α′-matrix being retained upon conversion into a cast or wrought form. The manufacture of the materials relies on the control of deposition temperature and in-vacuum consolidation during vapor deposition, on maximized heat transfer or casting pressure during all-liquid processing and on controlled friction and shock power during solid state alloying using a mechanical milling technique. The alloy synthesis is followed by extrusion, rolling, forging, drawing and superplastic forming for which the conditions of mechanical working, thermal exposure and time to transfer corresponding metastable α′-matrix phases and microstructure into product form depend on thermal stability and transformation behavior at higher temperatures of said light alloy as well as on the defects inherent to a specific alloy synthesis employed. Alloying additions to the resulting α′-monophase matrix include 0.1 to 40 wt. % metalloids or light rare earth or early transition or simple or heavy rare earth metals or a combination thereof. The eventually more complex light alloys are designed to retain the low density and to improve damage tolerance of corresponding base metals and may include an artificial aging upon thermomechanical processing with or without solid solution heat and quench and annealing treatment for a controlled volume fraction and size of solid state precipitates to reinforce alloy film, layer or bulk and resulting surface qualities. Novel processes are employed to spur production and productivity for the new materials.

Method and apparatus for simplified production of heat treatable aluminum alloy castings with artificial self-aging

InactiveUS6224693B1Simplifying even further the overall heat-treatmentProducing the casting in a considerably shorter timeCylinder headFree cooling
Simplified heat-treatment in making aluminum alloys castings of the type improved by aging, especially for automotive engine cylinder heads and motor blocks. The castings, after solidification and extraction from their molds, each have an end product (workpiece) portion and a riser portion (the latter being ultimately cut off as waste). The workpiece portion of the casting is selectively quenched from solution temperatures down to about 120° C. by spraying water or other appropriate liquid preferably as a gas driven mist onto the surfaces of the workpiece while maintaining the riser portion of the casting essentially unsprayed at relatively significantly higher temperatures. After the quench, the residual reservoir of heat thus retained by said riser portion, by internal heat conduction, reheats the workpiece portion and maintains such workpiece portion for an effective time period within the temperature range for artificial aging, thus obviating any need for the aging furnace used by the prior art. Preferably, the quench is immediately after the casting mold extraction (without the standard natural cooling, reheating, and solution heat-treatment, all prior to quenching), thus obviating also the need for a solution heat-treatment furnace, required by the conventional prior art.

The invention provides a novel Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Zn series alloy with fast aging response and a preparation method thereof. According to the invention, the novel Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Zn series alloy shows excellent fast aging response characteristic in an aging process by sufficiently utilizing the synergetic precipitation effect and synergetic strengthening effect of the main strengthening phases Mg2Si, MgZn2 and transitional phase of an Al-Mg-Si series alloy and an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu series alloy; the natural aging deterioration effect of a common Al-Mg-Si-Cu series alloy is certainly inhibited due to the simultaneous addition of Mg, Si, Cu and Zn elements and the addition of element Zn especially, the novel Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Zn series alloy has low strength and high room temperature stability after being subjected to preaging treatment at a certain temperature, which is favorable to the subsequent stamping forming of an alloy plate; a preaging-state alloy is greatly enhanced in strength after being subjected to high-temperature aging treatment and achieves the highest strength increment approaching to 150 MPa far higher than that of the traditional AA6016 and AA6111 alloys through short-term artificial aging at 185 DEG C for 20 minutes; the fast aging response characteristic is not only suitable for the preparation of an automobile outside plate, but also suitable for the related field with a special requirement on the aging precipitation speed of the alloy plate.
