Effect of Homogenization on Recrystallization of Twin Roll Cast AA3003 Alloy

Abstract:

The effect of homogenizations on the recrystallization microstructure of as-rolled twin roll cast AA3003 alloy were investigated using optical microscope, scanning electron microscopy and electric resistivity measurement. The results indicate that high temperature homogenization significantly decrease the supersaturation of Mn in the alloy, and both the volume fraction and the diameter of intermetallic particles increase as the homogenization temperatures. The shape of the recrystallized grains changes from pancake-like to equiaxed, as the annealing temperature increases above 520°C.
