Combined effect of micro-alloying and enhanced pre-aging on the paint-bake response of an AA 6014 alloy

Combined effect of micro-alloying and enhanced pre-aging on the paint-bake response of an AA 6014 alloy

An enhanced pre-aging (EPA) process for 6000 series aluminum alloy automotive sheets has been developed, utilizing a micro-alloying strategy combined with vacancy concentration control. This innovative approach enhances the paint bake (PB) response by up to 70 % without compromising other properties...
