Sumario: | In this project, an analysis of the effect of aging time on the crystalline structure and
mechanical properties of aluminum alloy 6061 was carried out. Aging is one of the 3 stages
which is part a set of more complex heat treatments known as age hardening. The
sequence used in this work was: First, the temperature was raised to obtain a
homogeneous phase on the sample at a temperature of 530 ºC for 2 hours, this step is
called a solution treatment. In the second stage, referred as quenching the material in the
solid solution state was rapidly cooled in water to room temperature and allowed to rest for
4 hours. In the third stage, the material was heated to a temperature of 175 ºC and kept at
different aging times.
This aging process, also called maturation, has been reported to improve the mechanical
properties of 6061 aluminum and produce changes in its crystalline structure. The different
maturation times evaluated were 15 min, 90 min, 8 am and 6 pm. Changes in tensile
strength were evaluated under standard ASTM E8M. Likewise, the variation in the material
hardness was evaluated for different maturation times, the performance of Vickers
microindentation hardness tests under standard ASTM E384. In each test was evidenced
the specimens got their maximum hardening at 18 hours of aging. |
