6061 aluminum plate in the process of heat treatment is needed for aging treatment, the aging treatment can be generally divided into natural aging and artificial aging, then the 6061 aluminum plate manufacturer to introduce to you, 6061 aluminum plate two different aging and aging treatment advantages.

Natural aging makes 6061 aluminum plate strengthen and reduce plasticity, so straightening and forming should be carried out before natural aging, and natural aging does not produce over-aging.

Artificial aging is to heat the quenched 6061 aluminum plate to a certain temperature.High temperature requirements should be artificial aging, and at room temperature 6061 aluminum plate some use natural aging, some must use artificial aging.

Using natural aging, the yield strength of 6061 aluminum plate is slightly lower and the corrosion resistance is better.Under manual aging, the yield strength of 6061 aluminum plate is higher, while the elongation and corrosion resistance are decreased.

There are two main advantages of 6061 aluminum plate after aging treatment. On the one hand, aging reduces the suprasaturation of matrix and weakens the effect of solid solution strengthening.On the other hand, the precipitate phase of pre-aging can strengthen the strength of the plate.The strengthening effect of natural aging increases monotonously with time and tends to be stable after reaching a certain time.

The above is the introduction of the two different aging of 6061 aluminum plate and the advantages of aging treatment. If you need to consult the price of 6061 aluminum plate, you can contact us.
