Download or read book Evaluation of Mechanical Corrosion and Tribological Properties of Normal and Submerged Friction Stir Welded Joints of Aa6061 and Aa6063 written by Dr. Laxmanaraju Salavaravu & Dr. Lingaraju Dumpala and published by Laxmi Book Publication. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aluminium is a soft, light metal with a dull silvery-white colour. It is the second most abundant element. Aluminium's lightweight and corrosion resistance made it a vital metal in the 19th century. It is the second most malleable and sixth most ductile element after gold. It is three times lighter than steel and is three times stronger than steel. Tm-660°C and has a lower density (2.7g/cm3). In annealed form, pure aluminium has a tensile strength of 40-50 MPa. It is strengthened by alloying, cold working, and heat treatment. The joining of aluminium alloys presents many challenges due to a tenacious oxide layer, high thermal conductivity, high Coefficient of thermal expansion, and solidification defects [1]. Aluminium is alloyed with many other elements to improve its strength and corrosion resistance. Many difficult-to-weld aluminium alloys can be defect-free and mechanically sound using FSW [2]. Their numerous benefits make aluminium alloys widely used in vehicle and building structural applications. Aluminium and its alloys have various capabilities and applications, making them the material of choice for many products and markets. Their low density, appearance, strength, and fabricability make them appealing. They have wrought alloys or cast alloys. Wrought alloys are designated as 1xxx-pure aluminium, 2xxx-Al-Cu alloys, 3xxx-Al-Mn alloys, 4xxx-Al-Si alloys, 5xxx-Al-Mg alloys, 6xxx-Al-Mg-Si alloys, 7xxx-Al-Zn alloys, and 8xxx-Al-Tin-Li, where the first digit denotes principal alloying. These alloys are classified in to two types-one is heat-treatable(2xxx, 6xxx, 7xxx, and some of the 8xxx alloys) and another one is non-heat treatable (ASTM Handbook 1985) [3]. 6xxx series are wrought aluminium alloys with Si and Mg. They are heat treatable and corrosion-resistant. They naturally weld due to their high strength to weight ratio. The 6xxx series accounts for roughly 80% of global aluminium extrusion [4]. AA6063 is popular for its formability, medium strength, and high corrosion resistance. AA6063 is a heat treatable magnesium silicide. AA6063 is used for extrusions and irrigation pipes [5].
