Development of a Castable High Strength Secondary Aluminum Alloy from Recycled Wrought Aluminum Scrap
Learn about a new recycling method to develop castable, high strength secondary aluminum alloy from scrap on August 31
This talk will present a new inexpensive and energy-efficient process developed by the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and ECK industries Inc. for recycling wrought aerospace aluminum scrap. The new process will provide near-wrought aluminum mechanical properties at casting level costs leading to significant improvements in the energy and CO2 footprint of aluminum.
