Unlocking processability of recycled crossover aluminium alloys

~ Matheus A. Tunes ~ Leave a comment

Aluminum crossover alloys are an emerging class of materials designed to deliver a broad and balanced combination of mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and formability. By blending the characteristics of traditional alloy families - 5xxx and 7xxx series alloys - they open new possibilities for high-performance applications in transportation, energy, and structural components. This versatility also … Continue reading Unlocking processability of recycled crossover aluminium alloys

Advancing the field of fine-grained aluminium alloys

~ Matheus A. Tunes ~ Leave a comment

In a new pre-print available at SSRN Electronic Journal, Samberger et al. introduce a new concept for fine-grained aluminium alloys. The authors shows a process of synthesis that resulted in a fine-grained aluminium crossover alloys intended to be applied in high-temperature forming processes. The use of EBSD unravels the active role of T-phase precipitates on … Continue reading Advancing the field of fine-grained aluminium alloys

With a great pleasure and happiness, I would like to congratulate Professor Stefan Pogatscher for achieving great success in its first place in the 2022 Houskapreiss All Starts! Professor Pogatscher led a team of rising stars (Dr. Stemper and Dr. Schmid) into the development of a new class of aluminium alloys with potential to revolutionize … Continue reading Houskapreis 2022 All Starts: First place to Professor Pogatscher!

Key to recycling

~ Matheus A. Tunes ~ Leave a comment

From Montanuniversität Leoben: https://www.unileoben.ac.at/en/newsdetail/schluessel-zum-recycling For almost a century, commercial aluminum materials have been developed and optimized for high performance in specific applications within strict chemical confines of industrially established alloy classes. The requirements associated with sustainable lightweighting concepts call for new strategies that offer a broader property portfolio with a better trade-off between formability, achievable … Continue reading Key to recycling
