Dear Dr. Rana Afif Anaee

1-What is the designation no. for Al-Zn alloy.

2-What is the designation no. for Al-Ti alloy. 

3-What is the volume fraction for reinforcement in composite materials.

Please can you explain that in order to determine the temperature and time for heat treatments.

Best regards

Ali Sabea Hammood

The time of heat treatment depends on the thickness of specimen. The temperature depends on the chemical composition and also to the final properties you expected.

You question is so general that I am not able to determine a appropriate thermal cycle.

Thank you so much for your response, the specimens are cylindrical with ~ 1.5cm diameter and ~0.5cm thickness.

Heat treatment of what material?

Can you see the Al-Ti and Al Zn diagrams in this site :

Yes,I agree with Mr.Marcelo Pagnola.

If you know the compositions of both alloys(Al-Ti & Al-Zn),So,from the binary phase diagram of the alloys, you can determine the corresponding  phase of the alloys with respect to the composition.   Then you can determine the temperature and time for the heat treatment.

DSC is best to do research to know the history of the thermal the alloy and then select the heating temperature, depending on what you want to receive.

Dear 

You have to go through the phase diagram of the alloys so you can get an idea of phase and DSC analysis gives you the data which you can compare with phase diagram information.
