Development and Working and Heat treatment strengthening of 2219 Aluminum alloy by mechanical working
The wrought aluminum alloy 2219 was developed using an induction furnace followed by forging and hot rolling for the improvement of properties. Then the alloy was solution treated at 535 ˚C for 48 minutes followed by water quenched and then aged at 210˚C, 230 ˚C and 240 ˚C for different time period....

| Summary: | The wrought aluminum alloy 2219 was developed using an induction furnace followed by forging and hot rolling for the improvement of properties. Then the alloy was solution treated at 535 ˚C for 48 minutes followed by water quenched and then aged at 210˚C, 230 ˚C and 240 ˚C for different time period. The maximum tensile strength of 411 MPa and hardness of 113.7 HV were achieved at 210 ˚C after 4 hrs aging. The tensile strength of 368.12 MPa and hardness of 95.32 HV were obtained at 240 ˚C after only 1.5 hrs aging time. The strength and hardness values of aged alloy specimens obtained in this work were reasonably higher (strength 51% and hardness 81%) than the specimens which were solution treated and quenched. Microstructures of the aged specimens also provided an evidence of dispersion of second phase precipitates particles in the single phase matrix. |
