INVESTIGATION INTO THE ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF ALUMINUM ALLOYS SUBJECTED TO ELEVATED TEMPERATURE EXPOSURE

Abstract

The relationship between the electrical conductivity (as measured by Magnatester Conductivity Meter, F100 Series) and strength properties of bare aluminum alloys 7075-T6, 7075-T73, 6061-T6, 7178-T6, 7002-T6, 2024-T81, 2024-T3, 7079-T6, 2020-T6, and 2219-T81 was investigated in an attempt to correlate conductivity with heat damage to aircraft structural alloys.
