ABSTRACT
Scandium in aluminum alloys behaves as the most efficient modifier of the structure of the material and as an agent suppressing recrystallization. This unique behavior of scandium in alloys of the Al-Mg system greatly increases the strength characteristics, whilst retaining on a higher level the ductility and processing properties of deformed semi-finished products. This article describes the effect of complex alloying the Al-6.3% Mg alloy with scandium, manganese and zirconium on the weldability and strength properties of the material is of considerable scientific and practical importance.
