The refinement of Al alloys by TiB 2 has been extensively investigated for decades, both in
industry and academia. In order to achieve higher grain refinement potency, it is known that …

The microstructure, hardness and corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy 7085 after different
retrogression and re-aging (RRA) treatments were investigated. The results showed that the …

The microstructure, texture, tensile strength, and corrosion behavior of Al–Mg–Sc–Zr alloy at
different annealing temperatures were investigated using SEM, TEM, XRD, and dual …

Scandium is the first of the transition elements and occupies an intermediate position
between the typical rare-earth elements and the light metallic elements. The most significant …

As one of the most efficient trace element to improve the mechanical properties of alloys,
scandium (Sc) has attracted much attention for aluminum alloys in recent years. In this study …

Cast aluminum alloys have been widely used in aerospace and automotive lightweight
fields due to their high specific strength, low density and high fracture toughness. In this …

Al–Sc master alloys are crucial raw materials for the preparation of high-strength and high-
toughness Al alloys. The primary particles in these alloys are Al 3 Sc, which has been …

Abstract In this study, Al–15Zn–0.5 Mg–Sc–Zr alloys with different Sc and Zr contents were
fabricated by casting, rolling, solution treatment, and aging at low and high temperatures …

Abstract The Al–Zn–Mg aluminum alloy A7N01S-T5 used in high speed trains was designed
by orthogonal method. The effect of elemental composition on the tensile properties and …
