      Specification
Aluminum 5083 is an aluminum alloy suitable for cryogenic applications
down to design temperatures of minus 165¡ÆC, since alloys of this type
do not show the ductile/brittle transition phenomenon. Apart from alu-
minum, the main other ingredient is magnesuim.
5083 is one of the most widely used Aluminum alloys especially in
the transportation industry. The soft, "O" temper plates of this alloy
is used, for example in the construction of land transportation
vehicles such as tanker lorries. Currently the use of this alloy is
limited to those applications where the service thmperature is less
than 65¡ÆC. This limitation originates from an anticipated susceptibility
of thes alloy to intergranular and stress corrosions during service at
themperatures above 60¡ÆC.
The susceptibilities to intergranular and hence stress corrosions
has been shown to originate from the precipitation of Mg containing
anodic intermetallics on the grain boundaries. Understanding the
decomposition of Mq in solid solution is therefore of paramount
importance to finding solutions so that the stress corrosion related
problems can be eliminated.
5038 Standard Tempers
O Annealed wrought alloy.
H111 Some work hardening imparted by shaping processes but less than required for a H1111 temper.
H32 Work hardened and stabilised with a quater hard temper.
      Applications
5083 is used in Cryogenic applications of productions, storage and transportation of liquid, petroleum and industrial gases.
Missile containers, Pressure vessels, Shipbuilding, Hulls and superstructures of ships such as fast ferries, naval craft
and workboats, heavy-duty truck and trailer assemblies, mechanical components, jigs, fixtures, flat beds
