Definitions

  • the thin, e.g. 0.51-2.54 cm (0.2-1.0 inch) solidified cast web is typically reduced in thickness to a gauge of about 0.033 cm (0.130 inch) by cold rolling with an intermediate recrystallization anneal at 316 ⁇ 482°C (600-900°F). Thereafter, as in the manufacture of direct chill ingot cast stock, the thinned, annealed stock is subjected to a final work hardening step by cold rolling to a final gauge of about 0.033 cm (0.013 inch) to produce the H19 temper required for can body manufacture.
  • the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of non-galling, low earing can stock from continuously cast aluminium strip suitable for deep drawing and wall-ironing into hollow articles.
  • the molten aluminium material is cast by continuous strip casting into a web generally of 2.54 cm (one inch) or less in thickness.
  • the strip material is heated to a temperature of from 510 to 621°C (950 to 1150°F) for a time sufficient to homogenize the alloy.
  • the homogenized strip material is cold rolled to effect a first reduction in sheet thickness of at least 25%.
  • the cold rolled sheet is heated to a recovery temperature of from 177°C (350°F) to 288°C (550°F), and subjected to a second cold rolling to effect a reduction in thickness of at least 10%.
  • the cold rolled sheet product is heated to effect recrystallization of the grain structure and then subjected to effect a final reduction in thickness which is at least about 50% and is preferably at least 75% of the original thickness of the sheet to impart an H19 temper to the sheet.
  • Temperature of the web is raised from 566 to 593°C (1050 to 1100°F) over a 5 hour period.
  • Web is homogenized at 593 ⁇ 5.5°C (1100 ⁇ 10°F) for 20 hours.
  • continuous cast 3004 aluminium alloy strip cold rolled and size-reduced to 0.034 cm (0.0135 inch) gauge to H-19 temper by conventional practice typically has an intermetallic particle size in the order of 0.3-0.7 microns.
  • this strip when subjected to ironing operations encounters severe galling.
  • the inter-metallic particle size increases with increasing homogenization temperature which results in a proportionate decrease in galling when the homogenized strip is subjected to wall-ironing conditions.
  • the web may be cooled to room temperature between the second recovery heating step and the recrystallization step.
  • the recrystallization heating is carried out without prior cooling to room temperature by direct heating from the second recovery temperature to the recrystallization temperature.
  • the cooled strips were rolled in successive passes using a commercial rolling mill until the strip was reduced to varying degrees of thickness ranging from 66 to 75% (0.41 to 0.30 cm) (0.160 to 0.120 inch).
  • Cold roll/anneal cycle 6 which is identical to cycle 5, except that a second cold roll reduction of 25% is used instead of 10%, produces a reduction in earing, but the reduction achieved is less than that achieved using cycle 5, indicating that a second cold roll reduction of 10% is more advantageous in effecting a reduction in earing.
  • cycle 8 produces a reduction in earing when compared to control cycle C 3 , but does not provide an advantage over cycle 5 which utilizes only one recrystallization heating.
  • the strips were subjected to a second recovery heating at 260°C (500°?) for one hour and then heated to recrystallization temperature of 427°C (800°F) for 2 hours.
  • the first series of cold roll recovery-recrystallization heatings was varied whereby in a first variation the second cold reduction was eliminated and recrystallization carried out immediately after the first recovery heating. In a second variation, the recovery heating was eliminated and recrystallization was carried out immediately after the cold reduction.
  • the H19 tempered strips were examined under a scanning electron microscope in the back scattering mode and found to have an intermetallic particle size in the 1 to 3 microns range, indicating that no galling would occur when the strips were subjected to the wall-ironing conditions of can making.
  • the tensile ultimate strength, along with the tensile total elongation, is a measure of sheet formability. To be suitable for can body manufacture, the sheet must have a tensile ultimate strength of at least 289x10 6 N/m 2 (42,000 psi).
