The Effect Of Pre - Treatment Followed By Cryorolling On The Microstructures, Mechanical Properties And Corrosion Behaviour Of Al 5052 Alloy

This research was aimed to study the effect of different pre-heat treatment on cryorolled Al 5052 alloy. Two types of pre-treatments; without pre-treatment, annealing (150°C, 200°C, 250°C, 300°C and 350°C) and solution treatment (480°C, 510°C and 540°C) were selected to study the effect of pre-heat...
