Abstract

Effects of different solution treatments on microstructure, texture and mechanical properties of 6A16 aluminum alloy sheet were investigated by electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) and tensile test. The results show that among the five solution treatments, with the increase of solution temperature and solution time, the average grain size increases and the yield strength of the alloy sheet gradually increases. The maximum elongation at break of the sheet is at 545 °C, and it increases with the increase of solution time. Therefore, the mechanical properties of the sheet are the best when the solution treatment is 545 °C for 5 min.
