The Development of Aluminum Alloys for Elevated Temperature Applications
Abstract
The work contained herein represents completion of the preliminary stage of an overall investigation required in the development of improved aluminum alloys for use at elevated temperatures, especially within a range of 300 to 400 deg C. To obtain a better understanding of the relative behavior of various elements in aluminum, the short-time tensile properties at 25, 200, 300 and 400 deg C. were determined, after stabilizing, for wrought binary alloys of 14 elements. The elements investigated were copper, silicon, nickel, iron, magnesium, manganese, chromium, cobalt, tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, titanium, boron and cerium (plus other rare earths). Wrought alloys only were covered in this investigation.
