Improvement of the mechanical properties of Al–Mg–Si alloys with nano-scale precipitates after repetitive continuous extrusion forming and T8 tempering

Repetitive continuous extrusion forming (R-Conform) followed by T8 tempering treatment was found to be a viable approach for obtaining superior strength with high ductility in an Al–Mg–Si alloy. The evolution of mechanical properties and microstructure of the Al–Mg–Si alloy, and its mutual relations...
