“…Among the aluminum alloys, the AA6xxx wrought alloys have become significant due to their versatile application for armor structures, rockets, missile casings, lightweight defense vehicles, cars and marine structures because of their high strength to weight ratio, plasticity, formability and fairly good corrosion resistance. The AA6xxx alloy properties change based on the chemical composition and processing conditions, such as hot working, cold working, annealing, and the aging process 1 . The primary alloying elements, including Mg, Si, Cu, Fe and Mn, play an important role in AA6xxx alloy properties.…”
