The effect of small amounts of magnesium on the superplastic behavior of an aluminum-zinc alloy

Creator:

Abbott, Vaughn William

Abstract:

The base Al-Zn superplastic alloy was investigated at 250°C to determine the effect of small amounts of magnesium on mechanical properties. Six alloys of nominal composition 0.00, 0.10, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00 weight percent magnesium, constant 78 weight percent zinc, and variable 21 to 22 weight percent aluminum were...
