Quantitative analysis of the Al – Cu – Mn – Zr phase diagram as a base for deformable refractory aluminum alloys

  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

The Thermo-Calc software is used for quantitative analysis of the Al – Cu – Mn – Zr diagram as a base for creating new refractory aluminum alloys. Comparison of the characteristics of the phase composition of a commercial aluminum alloy of type 1201 and a novel ALTEK aluminum alloy is performed. The ranges of concentrations and temperatures are determined for obtaining a maximum content of Al20Cu2Mn3 dispersoids providing high refractoriness of the ALTEK alloy.
