This paper investigates the optimization of the solution heat treatment parameters of the rheo-high pressure die cast (R-HPDC) 2139 aluminium alloy. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and optical microscopy were used to investigate the incidence of incipient melting and therefore determine suitable solution heat treatment temperatures. A three-step solution heat treatment where the alloy was heat treated from 400°C to 513°C using controlled heating conditions and held at 513°C for 2 hours and finally heated up from 513°C to 525°C and held there for 16 hours was done. R-HPDC is known to produce surface liquid segregation and when processing the alloys these areas are most prone to incipient melting. The applicability of a single (525°C for 16h) and three-step solution heat treatments on the R-HPDC 2139 aluminium alloy was also investigated. A single-step solution heat treatment results in incipient melting, whereas this is mostly eliminated using the three-step solution heat treatment. However, a high volume fraction of undissolved phases remain in the liquid segregated areas, even after the three-step solution heat treatment.

6111 Aluminium Alloy in the hot band state was cold rolled to 80% was then annealed at 450oC, 500oC and 540oC for recrystallization. The hot band was also solution heat treated, cold rolled and annealed to the same temperature to look at the difference in the recrystallization texture and precipitation states. It was found that the samples which were cold rolled and annealed without solution heat treatment gave Goss and P components after annealing. For the samples with solution heat treatment, the 450oC sample has a retained Cu type rolling texture while for the 500oC and 540oC the textures are quite random. The retained rolling texture found in the 450oC sample is due to the fact that it was partially recrystallized as the precipitates prevent complete recrystallization. The difference in the precipitation states during and after annealing of the samples with and without solution heat treatment affects the final recrystallization texture.

Type 6201 aluminium alloy wires are produced by drawing 4.7 mm diameter billet-on-billet extruded redraw rod down to 2.7 mm diameter wires. Before drawing, the first group of redraw rod coils was annealed at 480oC for 4 hours to reduce the hardness of the redraw rod. The second group of redraw rod coils was drawn without annealing. With each group of redraw rod, after drawing, some wire coils were solution heat treated, then artificially aged or naturally aged. The other wire coils were artificially aged or naturally aged without solution heat treatment. Mechanical properties of the wires were assessed by a tensile testing machine (model UTM-1000)With suitable aging temperature and aging time, wires produced from each group of redraw rod coils with or without solution heat treatment attain tensile requirements of ASTM B398, but wires produced with solution heat treatment attain higher elongation than wires produced without solution heat treatment.
