Purpose: This research examined the effects of artificial-aging temperature and time on tensile strength, hardness, microstructure, and fault morphology in AlSiMg. Design/methodology/approach: This research was conducted using aluminium alloy at 120°C, 150°C, and 180°C artificial-aging temperature and 6 hours holding time. The tensile test used ASTM B211-03 standard and hardness test adapted to ALCOA 6061 standard. Findings: Tensile test results indicated the highest tenacity on aluminium alloy at a 150ºC temperature that was 47.263% strain level. In addition to the strain level, this research also obtained the highest tensile strength level at 180ºC that was 62.267 kgf/mm2 and the highest hardness value that was 110 HV. The increase in tensile strength and hardness at 180°C was caused by the increase in Mg, Si, and Al. Based on the microstructure test, the highest tenacity was obtained at 150°C temperature as the result of closed and gathered Mg2Si precipitates; while at 180°C temperature, the precipitates appeared to be more distributed, causing a rise in hardness value and tensile strength. AlSiMg tenacity also exhibited from the number of dimples compared to cleavages at 150°C temperature. Research limitations/implications: The limitation that found in this research was conducted using AlSiMg aluminium Al6061 specimen with an artificial-aging treatment at 120ºC, 150°C, and 180°C temperature for 6 hours and then compared to the raw material. AlSiMg tensile specimen was made according to ASTM E8-E8M standard. Practical implications: This research can be applied in industrial manufacture process to find tensile strength, hardness, microstructure, and fault morphology of Al6061 alloy. Originality/value: According to research result, can be understood that by conducting these experiments, Artificial-aging treatment temperature variations in AlSiMg aluminium alloy could increase hardness.

This article deals with the effect of manganese that is the most applied element to eliminate the negative effect of iron in the investigated alloy AlSi7Mg0.3. In this time are several methods that are used for elimination harmful effect of iron. The most used method is elimination by applying the additive elements, so-called iron correctors. The influence of manganese on the morphology of excluded iron-based intermetallic phases was analysed at various iron contents (0.4; 0.8 and 1.2 wt. %). The effect of manganese was assessed in additions of 0.1; 0.2; 0.4 and 0.6 wt. % Mn. The morphology of iron intermetallic phases was assessed using electron microscopy (SEM) and EDX analysis. The increase of iron content in investigated alloys caused the formation of more intermetallic phases and this effect has been more significant with higher concentrations of manganese. The measurements carried out also showed that alloys with the same Mn/Fe ratio can manifest different structures and characteristics of excluded iron-based intermetallic phases, which might, at the same time, be related to different resulting mechanical properties.

Qualitative microstructure investigations of the AlSiMg alloy’s microstructure in both its original state (with the characteristic primary structure) and after precipitation hardening revealed the significant heterogeneity of the eutectic phases concerning their shape, size, and distribution. An evaluation of the stereological parameters of the eutectic phases was carried out. The computer‑image analysis was performed in order to define the fraction of the relative volume and shape of the eutectic phases and to establish their influence on the mechanical properties.

Jakościowe badania mikrostruktury stopu AlSiMg, zarówno w stanie wyjściowym (o charakterystycznej strukturze pierwotnej), jak i po utwardzaniu wydzieleniowym, wykazały występowanie w badanym stopie istotnych niejednorodności faz eutektycznych pod względem kształtu, wielkości oraz rozmieszczenia. W pracy przeprowadzono ocenę parametrów stereologicznych faz eutektycznych w stopie AlSiMg zarówno w stanie wyjściowym, jak i po utwardzaniu wydzieleniowym. Wykorzystując analizę obrazu komputerowego, określono udział objętościowy względnej faz eutektycznych oraz ich kształt, a także ustalono ich wpływ na właściwości mechaniczne.
