Strength allowables for this alloy are provided in Metallic Materials Properties Development and Standardization for design. [ 3 ] The main alloying elements are zinc (7.3 to 8.3%), magnesium (2.2 to 3.0%), copper (1.6 to 2.4%) and zirconium (0.05 to 0.15%), with traces of silicon, iron, manganese, chromium, and titanium.
It has high toughness, high strength. It has high stress corrosion cracking resistance. [1] It has electric conductivity of value having 40 percent of copper. [2] 7050 aluminium is known as a commercial aerospace alloy. [3]
6082 aluminium alloy is an alloy in the wrought aluminium-magnesium-silicon family (6000 or 6xxx series). It is one of the more popular alloys in its series (alongside alloys 6005, 6061, and 6063), although it is not strongly featured in ASTM (North American) standards.
The Columbus module on the International Space Station also used 2219 aluminium alloy with a cylinder thickness of 4 mm, which was increased to 7 mm for the end cones. [3] The dome and skirt of the Cupola Module on the International Space Station also uses 2219 aluminium alloy. [4] Alternate designations include AlCu6Mn and A92219.
Unhardened 5086 has a yield strength of 120 MPa (17 ksi) and ultimate tensile strength of 260 MPa (38 ksi) from −28 to 100 °C (−18 to 212 °F). At cryogenic temperatures it is slightly stronger: at −196 °C (−321 °F), yield of 130 MPa (19 ksi) and ultimate tensile strength of 380 MPa (55 ksi); above 100 °C (212 °F) its strength is reduced.
Typical material properties for 6060 aluminum alloy include: [2] Density: 2.710 g/cm 3, or 169 lb/ft 3. Young's modulus: 70 GPa, or 10 Msi, or 303 EMEC; Ultimate tensile strength: 140 to 230 MPa, or 20 to 33 ksi. Yield strength: 70 to 180 MPa, or 10 to 26 ksi. Thermal Expansion: 23.4 μm/m-K. Solidus: 610 °C or 1130 °F.
Due to its high strength and fatigue resistance, 2024 is widely used in aircraft, especially wing and fuselage structures under tension. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Additionally, since the material is susceptible to thermal shock , 2024 is used in the qualification of liquid penetrant tests outside of normal temperature ranges.
