Basic information of 6063 aluminum bar

Answer:

Effect of alloying elements on properties:6063 aluminum alloy is a moderate strength heat treatment alloy in AL-Mg-Si system. Mg and Si are the main alloying elements. The main work of optimizing chemical composition is to determine the percentage content of Mg and Si (mass fraction, the same below).
1.1 the role of Mg and effects of Mg and Si Mg2Si phase Mg, the higher the content of Mg2Si, the number is more, the greater the effect of heat treatment, the tensile strength of the material was higher, but the deformation resistance increases, the ductility of the alloy decreased, processing performance is bad, bad corrosion resistance.
The role of 1.2 Si and the amount of Si that affect all Mg in the alloy can be in the form of Mg2Si phase, to ensure the full play of the role of Mg. With the increase of Si content, the grain of the alloy becomes thinner, the fluidity of the metal increases, the casting performance becomes better, the strengthening effect of heat treatment increases, the tensile strength of the section increases, while the plasticity decreases, and the corrosion resistance becomes worse.
