Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Microstructural Evolution During Homogenization Heat Treatment of Aa 6063 Alloy in Batch and Continuous Furnaces(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2024) Obali, Akin; Gokelma, Mertol; Urk, Deniz Kavrar; Dogan, Murat; Gokce, GokcenHomogenization heat treatment after casting is performed to eliminate the dendritic segregation and coarse eutectic intermetallic phases since they reduce the fracture toughness of aluminium alloys. By the homogenization treatment, ss-AlFeSi can be converted to more spherical alpha-AlFeSi particles. The ss -> a transition is crucial because the ss-AlFeSi particles cause a number of surface defects and limit the extrudability. Also, the rate of cooling in the homogenization furnace is one of the critical influencing factors on the size of the Mg2Si precipitates which affect the mechanical properties positively. In this study, billets of AA 6063 from the same cast were put through homogenization heat treatment by using batch-type and continuous furnaces. The solution, quenching, and aging heat treatment were applied to each sample. Microstructural characterization by SEM and the hardness test were conducted to understand the effects of the furnace type on the mechanical properties of aged AA 6063 aluminium.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Effect of Water Source on Human Health: a Case Study From Biga Peninsula, Turkey(2009) Baba, Alper; Gündüz, OrhanThe concentrations of certain elements including arsenic (As), fluoride (F) and aluminum (AI) were measured in groundwater in the different part of Biga Peninsula which is located in the western parts of Turkey. The concentration values of As and AI in groundwater ranged between 10-40 ppb, 0.5-0.8 ppm and 1-11.5 ppm, respectively, in this region. Al values exceed the Turkish drinking water standard value of 0.2 ppm. Furthermore, As concentration in water from alteration zones exceed the drinking water standard value of 10 ppb. Based on this background, this study was intended to investigate the source of these heavy metals and its neurotoxin effects on human health as many people living in this region have undergone medical treatment, which are believed to be related to the quality of water resources originating from densely altered volcanic rocks.
