Thermomechanical and Metallographic Comparison of Twin-Roll CAST 1235, 3003, 8006, and 8079 Alloy Series Used in the Production of Foil Manufacturing

Aluminum alloysAluminum alloys produced by the twin-roll continuous castingContinuous Casting methodMethod are frequently used in construction, packaging, transportation, etc. areas of use. In this study, the effect of the products produced with different process types on the thermomechanicalThermomechanical and metallographic behaviors of the 1235, 3003, 8006, and 8011 alloyAlloys series, which are used in the packaging industry as foil products (crumpled container, household foil, flexible packaging, etc.), was investigated. Homogeneous annealing, intermediate annealing, and final annealing processes and their combinations were applied to the related alloysAlloys. Process differences are mentioned with microstructureMicrostructure (grain size distribution, centerline segregation) and mechanical propertiesMechanical properties (tensile test) analysis.
