Production
In terms of content in the lithosphere (more than 8%), aluminum ranks first among metals. Of the 250 minerals containing this metal, 40% are aluminosilicates. The process of metal production is very laborious and involves several stages. One of the main ways of obtaining aluminum is electrolysis, through which ingots of primary metal are obtained. Then they are used either as a finished product or as a material for the production of aluminum alloys with specified characteristics.
The percentage composition of the primary alloy A0, GOST 11069- - — 2001
Si | Mn | Ti | Al | Cu | Mg | Zn | Impurities |
≤ 0.95 | ≤ 0.05 | ≤ 0.02 | min 99 | ≤ 0.05 | ≤ 0.05 | ≤ 0.1 | ≤ 0.03; |
Doping
For the production of aluminum alloys with specified properties, the addition of alloying components is used. Among the most common are:
•silicon;
•magnesium;
•copper.
Alloyed aluminum alloys serve as the basis for the production of reliable parts with specified properties.
Heat treatment
For this metal, three main types of heat treatment are used:
•annealing;
• hardening;
•aging.
The first is aimed at increasing plasticity and also has several subspecies (depending on the nonequilibrium state of the alloy). The main purpose of these procedures is to improve the strength characteristics of finished products.
