Conclusions
-
1.
Among transition elements (iron, nickel, cobalt), iron and cobalt improve the mechanical properties of AV000 aluminum in concentrations up to 0.5% and can be recommended for alloying aluminum wire.
-
2.
Cerium is the best alloying addition for aluminum wire, since it increases the strength, the ductility remains high, and the electrical conductivity hardly decreases.
