The plastic strain ratio is one of the factors of the deep drawability of metal sheets. The plastic strain ratio of Al sheet is low value. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the plastic strain ratio in order to improve the deep draw ability of the Al sheet. This study investigated the increase of the plastic strain ratio and the texture change of AA3003 sheet after the hot asymmetric rolling. The average plastic strain ratio of the initial AA3003 sheets was 0.69. After 83% hot asymmetric rolling at $200^{\circ}C$, the average plastic strain ratio was 0.83. The average plastic strain ratio of the 83% hot asymmetrically rolled AA3003 sheet at $200^{\circ}C$ is 1.2 times higher than that of the initial AA3003 sheet. The ${\mid}{\Delta}R{\mid}$ of 83% hot asymmetrically rolled AA3003 sheet at $200^{\circ}C$ is 0.83 times lower than that of the initial AA3003 sheet. This result is due to the development of the intensity of ${\gamma}-fiber$ texture and reduces the intensity of {001}<110> and {001}<100> textures after hot asymmetric rolling of AA3003 sheet.

The present work was aimed to examine the variation of microstructure and mechanical properties by annealing($100{\sim}620^{\circ}C$, $2{\sim}8hr$) in A3003 Al alloy welded pipes. The A3003 Al alloy pipes with 34 mm in external diameter and 1.3 mm in thickness were manufactured by high frequency induction welding with the V shaped convergence angle $6.7^{\circ}$ and power input 50 kW. The tensile and yield strength decreased with increasing the annealing temperature remarkably, but elongation increased remarkably. Vickers hardness in welds decreased with increasing the annealing temperature remarkably. The primary intermetallic compound of $Al_{12}(Fe,\;Mn)_2Si$ was precipitated in welds as the same base metal. In a certain experimental condition, the welds line in A3003 alloys disappeared at $450^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr because of the same mechanical property and structure between welds and base metal.

금속재료 중 알루미늄(Al)은 일반적으로 많이 사용되는 철강재에 비해 그 비중이 약 $1/3(2.7g/cm^3)$인 경량이고 열전도율이 약 3배($196kcal/^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$)로 높은 특성 등을 갖고 있다. 또한 대량생산에 의한 경제성을 가지기 때문에 건축 구조재, 전기 및 가전 등 다양한 산업 분야에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 특히, 위와 같은 특성으로 인해 열교환기의 종류에서 응축기(Condenser) 및 증발기(Evaporator)는 알루미늄(Al)을 널리 사용하고 있다. 하지만 단일 응축기 부품에도 이종 알루미늄 소재가 사용됨에 따라 갈바닉 부식이 발생할 수 있다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 현재 상용되고 있는 열교환기 중 응축기에서의 이종 알루미늄 재료로 인해 나타나는 갈바닉 부식 특성을 관찰-분석-연구 하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 알루미늄 재료는 현재 응축기 재료 중에서 각각 Tube와 Fin으로 널리 상용되고 있는 Al 1100과 Al 3003을 사용하였다. 표면 모폴로지는 SEM을 통해 관찰하였고 EDS를 통해 조성원소를 분석하였다. 또한 내식성 평가를 위해 5% NaCl 환경에서의 SST(Salt spray test, 염수분무시험) 시험과 3% NaCl 용액 내 자연침지 시험 및 탈기된 3% NaCl 용액 내 전기화학적 동전위 양극 분극 시험을 진행하였으며 더불어 갈바닉 부식 시험에 따른 혼합 전위 측정 및 외관 관찰을 하였다. 각 재료는 실험에 대해 동일한 표면적을 노출시켜 시험하였다. 5% NaCl 환경에서의 염수분무 시험 결과 Fin(Al 3003)의 경우에는 Tube(Al 1100) 보다 빠른 부식거동을 보이며 국부적인 공식부식(Pitting corrosion)이 촉진되었다. Tube(Al 1100)의 경우에는 치밀한 Al2O3 형성과 부식에 따른 Al(OH)3를 생성함에 따라 Fin(Al 3003)에 비해 느린 부식거동을 보였다. 3% NaCl 용액 내 자연 침지 및 전위 측정 결과 초기 전위는 Fin(Al 3003, 약 -0.85V/SCE)이 Tube(Al 1100, 약 -1.05V/SCE)에 비해 더 높은 값을 가지며 약 72시간 이후 Tube(Al 1100) 시편이 더 안정적인 전위 값을 나타냈다. 이는 안정적인 Al(OH)3 피막 형성에 기인한 것으로 사료된다. 탈기된 3% NaCl 용액 내 전기화학적 동전위 양극 분극 시험 결과 Fin(Al 3003) 시편에서 더 귀한 부식 전위 값을 나타냈지만 부식 전류는 더 낮은 값을 나타냈다. 상기 시험 결과를 바탕으로 Fin-Tube 간 장기간 접촉 시에는 갈바닉 부식이 발생할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 갈바닉 부식 시험 결과 초기 혼합 전위는 약 -1.05 V/SCE를 나타냈으며 약 288시간 경과 후 약 -0.85 V/SCE 값을 나타냈다. 이는 자연 전위 측정 및 동전위 양극 분극 시험에서의 부식 전위 값에서 알 수 있듯이 더 비한 전위인 Tube(Al 1100) 시편이 Fin(Al 3003) 시편에 대해 희생양극적(Sacrificial anode)인 역할을 한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 갈바닉 부식 전위 측정 간 외관 관찰에서도 Tube(Al 1100) 시편은 빠르게 흑변 하는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며 Fin(Al 3003) 시편은 침지 300시간 이후에도 초기와 유사한 표면 상태 및 광택을 유지하였다. 이상의 SST 시험, 자연 침지 시험, 전기화학적 양극 분극 시험 및 갈바닉 부식 시험 결과를 바탕으로 단일 부품 내 이종 알루미늄 소재 간 접촉 및 그에 따른 갈바닉 부식 발생을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 동종 성분이라고 할지라도 단일 부품 제작 시에는 그 사용 환경에 따라 이종 금속 재료의 사용에 대한 재고가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

The aim of this study is to investigate the full annealing parameter for A3003 Al alloy welded tubes. The A3003 Al alloy tubes with 34 mm in external diameter and 1.3 mm in thickness for OPC drum were manufactured by high frequency induction welding with the V shaped convergence angle $6.7^{\circ}$ and power input 50 kW. The tensile and yield strength decreased with increasing the annealing temperature and time remarkably, but elongation increased remarkably. Vickers hardness in welds and base metal decreased with increasing the annealing temperature and time remarkably. In a certain experimental condition, the welds line in A3003 alloys disappeared at $520^{\circ}C$ for 4hr because of the same mechanical properties and structures between welds and base metal.

This work was carried out to investigate the welding behavior of thin A3003 Al alloy sheets by Nd : YAG laser beam. Considering bead shape and mechanical properties, the laser pulse shapes selected were two kinds of 2-division and 3-division by varying power level and pulse duration. In order to obtain optimum conditions, the factorial design method and central composite design method were applied. Tensile test, optical microscopy, micro hardness test and TEM analysis were performed. Due to the annealing caused by thermal effect during laser welding, precipitates were coarsended. The HAZ was softened and failed during tensile test. The hardness of HAZ was lower than that of base metal, since the heat input relieved the work hardening effect and caused grain growth.

The clad samples of five plies of sheets comprising ferritic stainless steel (STS) and aluminum (Al) were prepared by roll-cladding at $350^{\circ}C$. The evolution of strain states and textures during roll-cladding of STS430/AA3003/AA3003/AA3 003/STS430 and STS430/AA3003/STS430/AA3003/STS430 was investigated by measurements of crystallographic textures and by simulations with the finite element method (FEM). Because the deformation mainly occurs in the Al layer during roll-cladding, the present investigation was focused on the Al layers located. The stacking sequence of sheet materials in the clad samples played an important role in the evolution of strain states during roll-cladding.

In this paper, research was the variation of microstructure and mechanical properties of clad(A4045/A3003) Al alloy sheet by gas tungsten arc welding. Tensile properties of the gas tungsten arc welding joint decreased because of the softened heat affected zone(HAZ). The hardness of HAZ was lower than that of base metal, because relieved the work hardening effect of the welding heat. Hardness distribution of the weld zone with the base metal appears similarly, but the hardness of HAZ decreased remarkably. The microstructure in the weld zone of A4045 clad layer was formed a coarse columner grains of Si-rich. In the case of large weld heat input, the Si of the A4045 were diffused and until A3003 weld zone they decreased the strength.

For the development of a low-melting point filler metal for brazing aluminum alloy, we analyzed change of melting point and wettability with addition of Sn into Al-20Cu-10Si filler metal. DSC results showed that the addition of 5 wt% Sn into the Al-20Cu-10Si filler metal caused its liquidus temperature to decrease by about 30 oC. In the wettability test, spread area of melted Al-Cu-Si-Sn alloy is increased through the addition of Sn from 1 to 5 wt%. For the measuring of the mechanical properties of the joint region, Al 3003 plate is brazed by Al-20Cu-10Si-5Sn filler metal and the mechanical property is measured by tensile test. The results showed that the tensile strength of the joint region is higher than the tensile strength of Al 3003. Thus, failure occurred in the Al 3003 plate.
