Conversion of real-world aluminum scrap streams into high-performance Al–Mg–Si–Cu automotive alloys using shear assisted processing and extrusion

The conversion of post-consumer aluminum (Al) scrap into usable Al alloys without adding primary Al is challenging because of excess impurities. In this work, >99% post-consumer Twitch, used beverage cans (UBCs), and remelt scrap ingots (RSIs) were used as feedstock materials. As-cast and solution heat-treated feedstock billets were extruded using Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion (ShAPE) at ~510°C, followed by press quenching. To explore the development of the microstructure, texture, and underlying mechanisms and how they contribute to the overall strengthening in as-extruded and artificially aged samples, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) were used to collect microstructure and texture data. The enhanced strength and ductility were corroborated with the microstructural features and crystallographic texture. Simple shear $\textrm{A}/\bar{\textrm{A}}$, $\textrm{A}_1^*/\textrm{A} _2^*$ texture components along with weak $\textrm{C}$ and $\textrm{B}/\bar{\textrm{B}}$ texture components were formed during extrusion; the texture was strengthened after heat treatment. The refined second-phase particles helped to retain the deformed microstructure and texture. The contributions of dislocation and precipitate strengthening were maximized when billets were solution-heat-treated prior to extrusion. This is attributed to the formation of effective supersaturated solid solutions during the ShAPE process, which precipitate out during the peak age treatment. Overall, the highest yield strength of 305 MPa, ultimate tensile strength of 350 MPa, and elongation of 12% were achieved in artificially aged samples, which are comparable to those of Al 6082-T6.
