As explained previously, aluminum alloys have specific percentages of alloying elements that improve material properties; these percentages are important, because they differentiate one alloy from another, especially within the same series. Type 5052 aluminum contains 97.25% Al, 2.5%Mg, and 0.25%Cr, and its density is 2.68 g/cm3 (0.0968 lb/in3). Generally, 5052 aluminum alloy is stronger than other popular alloys such as 3003 aluminum and also has improved corrosion resistance due to the absence of copper in its composition.
The properties of 5052 aluminum alloy differ based on how it is cold worked, or made stronger using the work-hardening process. When worked, or permanently altered in shape (think bending, forming, rolling, etc.), metals such as aluminum will increase in strength but decrease in malleability. This is a consequence of the metal’s molecular structure, but for the brevity of this explanation, just know that there are mechanical methods to making aluminum alloys stronger. There are several different procedures to work-harden 5052 aluminum alloy, but this article uses the strength values from H32 hardened 5052 aluminum alloy (5052-H32). Note that this alloy cannot be strengthened using the heat-treatment process, which other aluminum alloys such as 7075 aluminum or 6061 aluminum benefit from (more information on heat-treatment can be found in these respective articles).
