Abstract
The effects of the baking temperature and time on the mechanical properties of Al-Mg-Si alloys laser-arc hybrid welds were investigated. Increasing the baking temperature promoted the precipitation of the nano-sized βʹ, efficiently enhancing the weld seam. Owing to this, the microhardness of the weld seam increased to 96.0 ± 2.4 HV with the high-temperature baking process (220 ℃-0.5 h), leading to a 13% increase in tensile strength. Consequently, the joint coefficient of Al-Mg-Si alloy laser-arc hybrid welded joints reached 0.7, meeting the requirements for automotive industrialization.
期刊介绍:
Metals and Materials International publishes original papers and occasional critical reviews on all aspects of research and technology in materials engineering: physical metallurgy, materials science, and processing of metals and other materials. Emphasis is placed on those aspects of the science of materials that are concerned with the relationships among the processing, structure and properties (mechanical, chemical, electrical, electrochemical, magnetic and optical) of materials. Aspects of processing include the melting, casting, and fabrication with the thermodynamics, kinetics and modeling.
