Engineering property comparisons of PM alloy X7091-T7E69 and IM alloy forgings

The engineering properties of PM alloy X7091-T7E69 forgings were compared with those of forgings of the IM alloys 7075-T73, 7175-T736, 7050-T736 and 7010-T736. The properties considered were: strength, fracture toughness, fatigue crack propagation under constant amplitude and flight simulation loading, stress corrosion crack initiation and...

Engineering properties of the recently developed aluminium alloy designated 7010

An experimental investigation.was performed on 80 mm thick plate material of 7OIO-T7651 and 7OIO-T73651 developed by Alcan Industries Ltd in U.K. The testing programme involved: tensile tests, fracture toughness, stress corrosion and fatigue tests. For comparison a similar investigation vas carried out on 7075-T7351 Alcoa plate material.
