Abstract
A comparison of single-step versus two-step preheating practices for AA3104 can stock ingots was investigated. Earing and tensile properties determined in H19 sheet revealed similar earing tendencies for both processes, while tensile properties were slightly lower for the single-step method. The difference in tensile properties was correlated to a difference in manganese supersaturation. Manganese dissolution curves were developed for a variety of thermal histories based on resistivity measurements.
