Aluminium Alloys as Advanced Materials: A short communication

Abstract

Abstract Aluminum alloys have been one of the primary structural materials for several years due to their common mechanical behavior, design, production processes, and inspection techniques. However, it has gained much fame and occurrence in automobiles manufacturers due to its low mass and resistance to deterioration. Wrought aluminium alloys, which happen to be part of its classes from the study, have shown to be an advanced material due to its excellent extrudability, good corrosion resistance, and high strength. In the improvement of 7000 series, Al-Zn alloys have higher strength relative to other classes of aluminium alloy. Minimizing the mass to volume ratio of materials is considered one way of reducing the weight of engineering materials, especially aircraft. This paper presents a brief study on aluminum alloys and their application as advanced material for production in vehicles and ship industry. This study showed that significant improvements in aluminum aerospace alloys are due to obtain quality equilibrium of properties.
