Investigation of mechanical and thermal properties of strontium modified aluminum (AA7175) alloy
Author(s): Arirajan, Shunmathi and Haiyalappa
Abstract: Aluminum exhibit many attractive properties like low weight to strength ratio, good corrosion resistance etc. but pure aluminum alloy has low strength properties. This can be overcome by adding some alloying elements like Nb,Sr etc. the addition of strontium has beneficial results which changes the morphology of silicon present in the aluminum thereby increasing strength however, only 0.2%Sr is limited as excess strontium form as impurities in castings. The strength of this alloy is better improved by treatment process called AGING with different time and temperature conditions these heat treated alloys have beneficial effects on strength and other properties.
