Roll Casting of Recycled AA5182

Abstract:

Roll casting of the model alloy of recycled AA5182 aluminum alloy was investigated. Fe up to 0.6% was added to the AA5182 to make the model alloys of recycled AA5182. Increase of 0.6% of Fe means that the recycle was three times operated. A vertical type high speed twin roll caster was used. Some devices were operated on the twin roll caster to increase the cooling rate in order to make impurity fine. The roll speed could be increased up to 80m/min. The roll-castability did not become worse by the addition of the Fe. The LDR (limiting Drawing Ratio) was 1.9 when the Fe addition was 0.6. The deterioration of the mechanical properties by the addition of impurity Fe was very small.
