Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of High-Strength AA6011 Aluminum Alloy Welding with Novel 4xxx Filler Metals

Welding high-strength 6xxx aluminum alloys using a commercial ER4043 filler often results in inferior joint strength. This study investigated the effects of newly developed Al-Si-Mg filler metals with varying Mg (0.6–1.4 wt.%) and Mn (0.25–0.5 wt.%) contents on the microstructure evolution and mecha...
