  Study of Microstructure and corrosion effects of precipitation hardened high strength AA-7xxx aluminium alloy subjected to cryo rolling

  By Y. Phaneendra, Bh. Nagesh, I.N. Niranjan Kumar

  Abstract: The strength and life of an alloy is the primary parameter taken into consideration while building hulls and superstructures for marine applications. Usually AA-7xxx is widely used for these applications and hence is chosen for the present investigation. Cast AA-7xxx alloy reveals distribution of soluble intermetallic compounds in the α-aluminium matrix. In order to improve the mechanical properties and condition the microstructural features, precipitation hardening (solutionizing and ageing) treatment was …
