Description
Summary:Al 6061-T6511 alloy is widely used for commercial applications in the transportation, construction and similar engineering industries. It possesses excellent mechanical properties which allow it to be machined rapidly and economically. In addition to that, Al 6061-T6511 also has good corrosion resistance due to which the alloy finds extensive application in operating conditions where such properties are key essentials such as naval vessels manufacturing. This work will utilize X-ray diffraction analysis to provide aid to look into the properties of the alloy, its chemical compound and alloying elements analysis to determine its benefits.
