| Abstract Scope |
The world of aluminum alloys is defined by alloy classification, which is usually based on the main constituent other than aluminum. This makes sense, as the basic material properties and their intended field of use follow accordingly. However, this standardization and classification not only limits the potential for improvement in the material property mix, but also hinders the utilization of the ever increasing secondary raw material streams.
The AMAG CrossAlloy ® family aims to overcome these obstacles through a unique alloy design strategy that is not constrained by the usual limitations. The first member of this new alloy family – AMAG CrossAlloy ®.57 – has been successfully produced, characterized at AMAG’s facilities and tested by selected customers in several potential fields of applications. This study provides a first insight into the results of these practical trials. |
