Özet

Retrogression and re-aging (RRA) process are applied in an attempt to enhance mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of 7075 aluminium alloys. In this study, retrogression and re-aging process have been applied to a 7075 aluminium alloy at 170 °C for 5, 40, 80 min and wear resistance of RRA applied samples have been investigated by ball-on-disc wear test apparatus. Sliding distance has been chosen as 300 meters. Re-aging procedure has been carried out at 125 °C for 10, 20 and 30 hours. Minimum wear loss has been obtained by retrogression for 40 min and aging for 30 hours. © Carl Hanser Veriag, München.
