Cryogenic rolling combined with warm rolling has been found more effective than a single cryogenic rolling process in improving the strength of a 5052 Al alloy. In this study, cryo-rolled 5052 Al alloys were warm-rolled at $175^{\circ}C$. A notable increase of tensile strength was achieved by the precipitation during warm rolling process. Mechanical behavior of this alloy was investigated using hardness and tensile tests. It was found that the cryogenic rolling process combined with warm rolling process was very effective in improving tensile strength.

Cryogenic rolling combined with warm rolling has been found to be more effective than only cryogenic rolling procedure in improving the strength of a 5052 Al alloy. In this study, cryo-rolled 5052 Al alloys were aged at $175^{\circ}C$. Warm rolling was conducted after dipping plates into silicon oil bath. A notable increase of tensile strength is achieved by the precipitation during warm rolling. The mechanical behavior of this alloy was investigated by hardness and tensile tests. The microstructure was investigated by transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the cryogenic rolling combined with warm rolling was very effective in improving tensile strength.

Of typical welding techniques, to employ the heat for joining process is the most commonly used welding process. But there arise difficulties when this process is applied to light weight alloys such as Aluminium alloy. In this respect, Friction Stir Welding(FSW), a solid-state joining process, is the most effective welding technique with significant potential for various industrial applications. In this study, the characteristics of lapping FSW Al 5052 alloy are shown under a variety of welding parameters such as the rotation speed of FSW tool and welding velocity. Conclusively, the welding properties of lapping FSW Al 5052 were found to be dominated by the deformation of non-joining area near the welding nugget rather than other factors such as the thermal input.

The boiling heat transfer was experimentally investigated for the PF-5052 sprays impacting a square heated test surface in a downward direction. Full cone spray nozzles were employed for the spray cooling experiment, and experiments were made under the test conditions of Q=$3.32{\time}10^{-6}{\sim}\;12.98{\time}10^{-6}m^3/s$, ${\Delta}T_{sub}=5{\sim}25^{\circ}C$. Also, heat transfer measurements were made using the copper block of $10{\time}10mm^2$ test area heated by nine cartridge heater. From the experimental results, correlation between the Nusselt number and Reynolds number based on droplet-flow-rate was developed. The correlation shows good predictions with ${\pm}30$ % error for PF-5052.

Anodization techniques are widely used in the area of surface treatment of aluminum alloys because of its simplicity, low-cost and good corrosion resistance. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the properties (porosity and thickness) of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) and its corrosion behavior. Aluminum 5052 alloy was anodized in 0.3 M oxalic acid at $0^{\circ}C$. The anodizing of aluminum 5052 was performed at 20 V, 40 V and 60 V for various durations. The corrosion behavior was studied in 3.5 wt % NaCl using potentiodynamic polarization method. Results showed that the pore diameter and thickness increased as voltage and anodization time increased. The relatively thick oxide film revealed a lower corrosion current density and a higher corrosion potential value.

본 연구에서는 누적압연접합공정(ARB)을 통하여 5052 알루미늄 합금의 결정립을 약 0.2$\mu\textrm{m}$ 크기로 미세화 하였다. 누적압연에 의한 변형량 증가에 따른 미세 조직 변화와 결정립 간의 상대적인 방위각 차이를 TEM을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 누적 변형량을 함수로 상온 인장특성을 분석하였고, 초미세립 소재를 후속 열처리한 후 미세 조직 변화를 관찰하여 제조된 초미세립 소재의 열적 안정성을 평가하였다. 상온 대기 중에서 pin-on-disk 형태의 마멸시험기를 사용하여 초미세립 소재의 미끄럼 마멸시험을 변형량과 하중을 변수로 행하였다. 강소성 변형에 의해 제조된 5052 알루미늄 합금 소재의 마멸저항성은 강소성 변형 전과 비교하여 소재의 경도가 크게 증가하였음에도 불구하고 오히려 감소하였다. 마멸시험 후 마멸면의 SEM, 마멸단면의 OM 관찰과 마멸면 직하의 깊이에 따른 경도측정을 통하여 초미세립 소재의 마멸기구를 분석하였고 마멸표면의 변형 층을 관찰하였다. 또한 마멸면 직하 조직의 TEM 관찰을 통해서 마멸시험 중의 미세 조직 변화를 연구하였다.

The effect of annealing temperature on microstructures and mechanical properties of the 5052 Al sheets rolled 88% reduction at cryogenic temperature was investigated for the annealing temperature of 150 ~ $300^{\circ}C$, in comparison with those rolled at room temperature. The presence of equiaxed grains, whose size is about 200nm in a diameter, was observed in the alloy deformed 88% and annealed $200^{\circ}C$ for an hour. When compared with the deformation at room temperature, the deformation at cryogenic temperature showed the higher strengths and equivalent elongation after annealing at the annealing temperature below $200^{\circ}C$. However, for annealing above $250^{\circ}C$ materials deformed at cryogenic temperature showed the lower strength than those deformed at room temperature. This behavior might be attributed to the higher rate of recrystallization and growth in materials deformed at cryogenic temperature during annealing, due to the lager density of dislocations accumulated during the deformation.

Friction stir welding is a relatively new solid state joining process. A6061-T6 and A5052-H32 aluminium alloy has gathered wide acceptance in the fabrication of light weight structures requiring a high strength to weight ratio and good corrosion resistance. This friction stir process uses a non-consumable tool to generate frictional heat in the abutting surfaces. The welding parameters such as tool rotational speed, welding speed, etc., and tool pin profile play a major role in deciding FSP zone formation in A6061-T6 and A5052-H32 aluminium alloy. Three different tool pin profiles have been used to fabricate the dissimilar butt joints. The formation of friction stir processed zone has been analysed macroscopically. Tensile properties of the joints have been evaluated and correlated with the friction stir processed zone formation.
