1. The effect of recycling and processing routes on recrystallization in a secondary 3xxx aluminium alloy
University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Material och tillverkningAbstract : Aluminium alloys have the possibility to be infinitely recycled. By only generating 5% of the emissions compared to primary aluminium, great CO2 savings can be made. One of the issues in manufacturing components entirely from post-consumer scrap is the presence of trace elements and impurities. Such elements can be Fe, Cu, Cr, P and Pb. READ MORE

2. Optimization of hot strip drawing test methodology for hot forming of aluminium alloys
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : The development of lightweight design for automotive applications has lasted for many years and is still increasing. Vehicles with light structures use less fuel, emit less CO2, and are better for the environment. READ MORE

3. High temperature tribological evaluation of a self-lubricating laser cladding with and without external solid lubricant
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : The purpose of the project work was to build knowledge of the tribological behaviour of self-lubricating laser cladding, with and without external solid lubricant during conditions relevant for hot metal forming of aluminium. The materials used during the project were plates coated with a Ni-based self-lubricating clad and a reference sample of work tool steel. READ MORE

4. Material Transfer Mechanisms during Interaction of Aluminium Alloy and Tool Steel at Elevated Temperatures
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : Hot stamping of aluminium alloys allows for increased formability, decreased springback and the possibility of integrating age-hardening heat treatments into the process. However, it can be challenging due to the occurrence of material transfer of aluminium onto the tool, as aluminium is prone to adhesion even at low temperatures. READ MORE

5. Self-Lubricating Properties of Laser Claddings for High Temperature Forming Processes
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : This thesis summarizes the work done on tribological characterization of multifunctional hardfacing coatings with self-lubricating properties, intended for use in mechanical components operating in high temperature applications for which conventional lubricants are no longer effective. Deposition techniques like laser cladding have a great potential in reworking/repair of high value industrial components in order to extend their lifetime. READ MORE
