I. Chemical Composition
Aluminum rods are mainly categorized as wrought aluminum alloys. Common series include 1xxx (pure aluminum), 2xxx (Al-Cu), 6xxx (Al-Mg-Si), and 7xxx (Al-Zn). Specific compositions are listed in the table below:
Mechanical properties are significantly influenced by heat treatment states (e.g., T4, T6, T651). Typical data are as follows:
Notes:
T6: Solution treatment + artificial aging, significantly enhances strength.
O Condition: Annealed state, high ductility but lowest strength.
7xxx Series: Highest strength but poor corrosion resistance; surface protection required.
Alloying Elements
Cu, Zn, Mg: Enhance strength by forming strengthening phases (e.g., Al₂Cu, MgZn₂).
Si: Improves fluidity (casting performance).
Mn, Cr: Refine grains and enhance corrosion resistance.
Processing Techniques
Cold Working (e.g., drawing, rolling): Increases strength via work hardening.
Heat Treatment: T6 treatment can increase the strength of 6061 alloy by approximately 3 times.
