Microtexture and Microstructural Evolution of Friction Stir Welded AA5052-H32 Joints

Abstract: In this study, analysis was performed on the microstructural change in the friction stir welding (FSW) region of AA5052-H32 thin sheets. The micro texture and microstructure in the stir zone (SZ) and base metal were characterized using the electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) technique and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation. The grain size and misorientation angle distribution were also investigated. The hardness profile of the FSW region with the microstructure in each area was discussed… Show more

“…The characteristics of aluminium alloys, such as their low weight, corrosion resistance, specific strength, high formability, and recycling efficiency, make them an appropriate material among other lightweight materials [1]. Despite being more expensive than steel, aluminium alloys 5XXX and 6XXX are the most promising light materials (LM) and are frequently utilized to replace standard steels in vehicle components [2].…”

“…As a result of friction between the tool and the work piece, sufficient amount of heat is generated that softens the material up to a plasticized or semi-solid state. Subsequent translational movement of the tool along the joint line stirs the plasticized material around the joint line and, as the tool moves forward the faying surfaces are fused [8][9][10] . Friction stir welding involves various process parameters, out of which the significant are tool rotation speed, tool travel speed and tool tilt angle.…”
