Correlation between Mechanical Properties—Structural Characteristics and Cavitation Resistance of Rolled Aluminum Alloy Type 5083

The 5000 series aluminum alloy 5083 is distinguished by excellent processability, excellent welding characteristics, and a strong resilience to corrosion, particularly in maritime environments. It is employed in the manufacture of ships, automobiles, spacecraft, and industrial buildings. The goal of...

description The 5000 series aluminum alloy 5083 is distinguished by excellent processability, excellent welding characteristics, and a strong resilience to corrosion, particularly in maritime environments. It is employed in the manufacture of ships, automobiles, spacecraft, and industrial buildings. The goal of the current study is to determine whether there is any relationship between the mechanical properties, structural characteristics, and cavitation erosion properties of aluminum alloy 5083 in the H111 state (rolled from 454 °C to 399 °C and annealed at 343 °C by holding in cooled air), followed by artificial ageing at (180 °C) with three maintenance periods of 1 h, 12 h, and 24 h, and at (140 °C) with three maintenance periods of 1 h, 12 h, and 24 h. The cavitation resistance experiments of the experimental samples were performed in accordance with ASTM G32-2016. The resistance to cavitation erosion was determined by making mean erosion penetration rate (<i>MDER</i>) or mean depth of erosion (<i>MDE</i>) analytical diagrams according to the duration of the cavitation attack and by measuring the maximum depth of cavitation erosion in the samples analyzed by stereomicroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Finally, a structural correlation between the condition of the artificially aged laminate alloy and its resistance to cavitation erosion could be achieved: ageing at 180 °C, maintained for 24 h, could lead to a maximum depth of cavitation erosion <i>MDE</i><sub>max</sub> of about 5 µm.
