Introducing a High Performance Mg-Based Multicomponent Alloy as an Alternative to Al-Alloys

Introducing Fructose Syrup 55% as an Alternative to High Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) Products Such as Invert Sugar

Hydroxy Methyl Furfural (HMF) is a compound that is formed as a result of heat treatment and long storage of sugar products such as invert sugar and according to codex standards its limit in foods is 40 ppm. Fructose syrup 55% is a transparent liquid with a sweet taste and has no off-flavor and has similar sweetness and functional properties to sucrose. Various studies show that due to the prod...

Melt Protection of Mg-Al Based Alloys

This paper reports the current status of Mg melt protection in view to identify near-future challenges, but also opportunities, for Mg melt protection of Mg-Al based alloys. The goal is to design and manufacture sustainable Mg alloys for resource efficiency, recycling and minimising waste. Among alternative cover gas technologies for Mg melt protection other than SF6: commercially available tec...

Study on Mg/Al Weld Seam Based on Zn–Mg–Al Ternary Alloy

Based on the idea of alloying welding seams, a series of Zn-xAl filler metals was calculated and designed for joining Mg/Al dissimilar metals by gas tungsten arc (GTA) welding. An infrared thermography system was used to measure the temperature of the welding pool during the welding process to investigate the solidification process. It was found that the mechanical properties of the welded join...

Precipitation Hardening of Al–Si–Mg Alloys

FRACTIONAL RECRYSTALLIZATION KINETICS IN DIRECTLY COLD ROLLED Al-Mg, Al-Mg-Sc AND Al-Mg-Sc-Zr ALLOY

The evaluation of texture as a function of recrystallization has been characterized for directly cold rolled Al-6Mg, Al-6Mg-0.4Sc and Al-6Mg-0.4Sc-0.2Zr alloys. Samples were annealed isothermally at 400 °C for 1 to 240 minutes to allow recrystallization. Recrystallization kinetics of the alloys is analyzed from the micro-hardness variation. Isothermally annealed samples of aluminum alloys were ...
