Hey Jordan, this is honestly quite impressive work, even more so given your non-specialist background! This is the level that would typically be expected of a final-year Materials Science grad student and (I'm ashamed to say) I interacted with a couple of Materials PhD students who had a lower level of understanding than you do on these somewhat general topics! You might tell I'm quite excited to see this topic described as accurately and in as much detail as you managed. It speaks to your dedication and ability to process somewhat abstract info, but also proves how much information is now freely available online for those who want to understand a complex technical topic they have no formal training in. It also, however, shows that some things are better understood in a Q&A format, as we tend to fill in gaps in understanding with assumptions which sometimes are not correct (I should know, I've been guilty of that many times). That said, if you'll allow me -- and since I suspect these things interest you -- I'll add a few notes, and apologies if you already know some of these: 1. When you discuss the composition of an alloy and how the different elements affect the mechanical, physical and chemical properties (the part starting at 15:06), it's important to keep in mind that many of those additions are selected bc they form secondary phases (precipitates, dispersoids) in the matrix, and it's THOSE secondary phases which contribute the desired properties. Most of those phases are intermetallic compounds which typically have a strict ratio between their elements (that's called stoichiometry). In practice, what that means is that by controlling the ratio between two or more elements you can control *which* phases precipitate, and *in what volume fraction*; it also allows you to use two strengthening mechanisms concurrently: precipitation strengthening (the above) and solid-solution strengthening (you mentioned it in the video), by controlling how much of the alloying element contributes to precipitate formation and how much stays in the matrix and forms a solid solution with the main element (Al, in this case). This is discussed in the patent as well, see for instance paragraph 0062. The only exception to this is in the melt, when it's all a solution; in this alloy, that's when Si addition has a linear relationship with the flowability (increases latent heat) up to a limit. Steels (which you used as an example) do have a bunch of secondary phases precipitating in the matrix, but Fe (in contrast to Al, Ni, Mg, etc.) exhibits an allotropic transformation such that it has different structures at high and low temperatures. Adding C stabilises the high-temp phase to an extent, and cooling rapidly leads to the formation of yet other phases (martensite or mixes, leading to pearlite, bainite etc.). That's the whole matrix transforming. Nothing wrong in what you explained in the video, just thought you might appreciate understanding the distinction. 2. Grain size affects strength via the grains' capacity to accommodate (store) dislocations; these are planar defects via which a ductile material (a metal) deforms without failing. Small grains can store fewer dislocations, and as new dislocations "want to come in", there's a higher stress barrier they need to overcome. This effect is known as strain hardening: as you deform a material, it gets harder. A fine-grained material starts off harder, but also hardens faster, and breaks earlier. That's the strength/ductility trade-off you mentioned. The "snags" you mentioned... well, you might know this, but basically the grain boundaries act as dislocation diffusion barriers, leading to the effect I just described. Smaller grains means higher density of boundaries, means more barriers, means more limited dislocation slip, means harder material. Your explanation put the point across, though. 3. On the comparison between Sandy Munro's spectroscopy results and Tesla's patent composition, I suspect there might be the case of measurement error. Spectrometers need careful calibration, and they're not good at accurately quantifying both light and heavy elements at the same time. A worse possibility would be significant compositional heterogeneity in the castings, but... I kinda doubt that. 4. At 13:30, your comment on saving 17% on cost and weight: it might seem intuitively correct, but consider that a weaker material requires a thicker cross-section to get the same part strength, and with HPDC designs you aim for as thin a cross-section as possible, in order to control the cooling curve and the resulting microstructure. 17% might not seem like a lot, but we don't know what their internal calculations resulted in in terms of min. required strength. 5. At 20:15, the discussion on the morphology of the precipitates: I wrote a reply to another comment on this, tried to explain how it correlates to the matrix ductility. Those precipitates are brittle intermetallic compounds, as described above. 6. At 23:55 - it's less about the technical capabilities of developing a new alloy (that can be done, either internally or by collaborating with a materials research institute or university) and more about the unwillingness of the management to launch into a risky, costly project. Basically, the CapEx required for the HPDC machines -- not to mention thinking about asking manufacturers to increase the machine capacity -- is what stops most other automakers who much rather prefer steady-state, very gradual improvements in their technology. Sorry for the disertation!

Looking ahead, the next video will be about the HPDC process itself. From what I learned here there are a lot of variables at play and I expect it will be a tall order for Jordan to keep it lucid and concise as usual. Can you already predict whether Jordan will have to refer to the truckloads of presumably rejected casts coming out of the Austin plant to highlight the multi-variable process that need to be tuned and tweaked.. if not developed completely new for applications beyond the current status quo in Fremont and Shanghai?

Very good analysis, and this is coming from a PhD metallurgist who worked in alloy development (though not for aluminum alloys). A few things worth mentioning: 1. Alloy compositions are specified to allow for the use of scrap and other inputs to the production of alloys. The low vanadium content may be there only for that reason (it seems too low to have much effect, but I'm guessing; such low values when actually purposeful commonly have impact only at grain boundaries. 2. The patent situation for alloys is a mess given a morass of overlapping claims in other patents. Patents do not give you a right to practice the invention, only the right to exclude others. You may need a license from someone owning a previous, over-lapping patent. A cross-licensing agreement is a common solution if an overlap exists and if the other party bothers to object. Patent litigation is expensive, and can open a can of worms, so there can be great hesitancy to litigate.

If you are wondering why some brittle alloys have high elongation that's because elongation is related to work hardening. As long as the material gets stronger faster than it gets thinner the deformation will be even. As soon as the material gets thinner faster than it gets stronger the sample itself will get weaker, which means that deformation will localize at the weakest point in the sample.

@@eriktempelman2097 "Brittle" is an often mis-used term. Ceramics are genuinely brittle, but an alloy that has been mis-heat treated might be called embrittled only because its ductility has been reduced. The subject is ripe for over-simplification, since the full characterization of a material regarding the underlying concept - resistance to sudden failure, shall we say simplistically - must consider temperature, strain rate, environment, and the application requirements - both as considered during design and after field experience grades your paper. How much ductility is required for an automotive casting? I once funded research on questions like that, and peered into jet engines through borescopes myself - difficult to know.

I don't know if just knowing what's in an alloy means you can produce it. There may be steps in the mixing process that are required. Some of the additives may need to be added at different temperatures or in a certain order. There may be catalysts needed during mixing that are not part of the final product. You can probably think of other things that may not be specified in the patent application.

Hi Jordan, impressive research! Just one point that I'd like to add regarding the cost of materials. In my background as a project engineer for Nuclear applications, the cost of the materials themselves usually represent a very, very small percentage of the final cost. Much more important is the precision on the content of the materials and the QA follow-up such as analyzing, testing and reporting on this material. So, the important part is less so the material % themselves but rather the error margin on the different compounds, how well they're "mixed into' the block and the precision of the analysis required to confirm these margins. For example, how big are Tesla's margins on these material compounds. if there's a small % change on one of the compounds, is it immediately unusable or do they have a similarly large margin on these compounds as is usual in the industry? I don't have much experience on materials specifically themselves, so can't estimate whether their precision required is more than usual, but the QA to confirm their compound is what will influence pricing (IMO). To give you an idea, for a usual valve that I would buy for the Nuclear Power Plants, 80% of the prices is usually our QA requirements while 20% is the price you'd pay if you'd buy this same valve "of the shelf". I'm sure it's not like that for Tesla, but it's just to show you what QA can add to pricing in some cases.

As noted in the video, the VP in charge of alloys/materials is the same man for SpaceX and Tesla. Idk if this carries over from one to the other for specific materials but know that SpaceX invented new alloys for the turbines in the Raptor engine.

Corrections Freedom to Operate: The patent office doesn’t investigate or establish freedom to operate, but a search report does give the applicant info that helps the applicant understand the patent landscape. Infringement: The job of the patent office is to determine whether there is a patentable invention (New, Inventive, and industrially applicable), not to determine infringement. Infringement occurs out in the real world when an applicant does something that steps on the claims of an active patent. That is, it doesn't have to do with the patent office. Better wording should have been used in the video: "The application would have helped Tesla get a better understanding of the patent landscape around the alloy and it confirms that Tesla's alloy appears to be unique. If Tesla has infringed on someone's patent, it would be up to the patent holder or applicant to address this with Tesla."

Some further input... Aluminium casting alloys contain lots of silicon to improve fluidity, reduce shrinkage, and lower the melting temperature. In cast iron, carbon does the same trick. Steel is actually a beast to cast, and comparing steel to cast aluminium is IMHO not helpful. In high pressure die castings, you get extra strength because of the small grain size, in turn due to the high cooling rate. However, entrapped aluminium oxides typically make the part brittle. FYI, this is completely different in iron and steel, as these can not be cast this way. AUDI and ALCOA solved this in the 1990's by developing their Vacural technology, I.e. casting under vacuum. No air, no oxides, great strength and ductility. What I am missing most in this video is a discussion of Tesla's solution: do they use vacuum or not? ENJOY this comment, which is my way of appreciating the video. There is 25+ years of experience behind it, which does not mean I am right all the time of course. But pretty confident.

9:27 You don't want to use ductility to absorb normal suspension forces. Ductile deformation is permanent, beyond yield strength. That's not the regime of materials properties you want to experience in normal use. The energy absorption properties of ductile materials come int play in the overstress case. The crash, in other words. Ductile materials absorb energy, and avoid damaging other components wit jagged debris.

When melting to form an aluminum alloy that contains copper, the foundry does not buy expensive copper ingots, or copper scrap but uses copper bearing scrap, like aluminum alloy 2024 and/or uses mixed aluminum/copper scrap. Typical mixed aluminum/copper scrap is from a/c coils, which are copper tubing and aluminum fins.

I'm signed up for the Cybertruck, which will have an air suspension. The rest of the vehicle is designed for 1 million miles; what can we expect from air suspension on pickups/toy haulers?

Love your content. High pressure casting is a key component to the new material. When molten aluminum cools slowly it creates large grains. The smaller the grains, the stronger the material. When alloy cools in 120 ms, it creates very small grains. This improves the material properties and makes it very consistent throughout the part. As Munro says, there are no internal stresses to make the part warp.

Excellent video as usual. I do wonder if the temperature/time dimensions are variable in the case of castings? I thought the time/temp here referred to how long the metals spent at high but not molten temperatures, which affected the size/shape of the crystals (i.e during heat treatment, or how fast the part is cooled). In the case of casting the cooling rate I presume would be fast (and not easily modified), and would not linger at specific hot but not molten temperature.

The cooling rate is, in fact, one of the most important (and mostly controllable) parameters of the HPDC process. That TTT diagram for steels that Jordan included is a good example for how the cooling rate affects the resulting structure, including the formation of different secondary phases (that's the part that's different from steels, where the cooling rate decides mainly the matrix phase you end up with; in Al alloys it's the precipitates), the average size of the grains making up the structure (which affects the strength) and the residual stresses in the structure. On top of that, the cooling rate needs to be slow enough to ensure the dies are properly filled and the occurence of voids (which act as weak points) is minimised.

One additional problem with heat treating after casting is that 5he heat treatment induces warping and distortion in the part. For that matter stability after the part is pulled from the tool is also critical as this reduces athe mount of post-cast machining.

@@thelimitingfactor John is referring to the morphologies in Fig. 9A; "acicular" means needle-like, although those precipitates are in fact plate-like (which do look needle-like in cross-section when seen along the basal plane). The effect is similar, though: an incoherent precipitate (meaning, its atomic structure doesn't correlate at all with that of the Al matrix, so it forms weak bonds with it) acts very similar to a void with the same shape. Sharp features like that cause cracks to be initiated bc the local stresses are much higher than average and can be larger than the strength (or UTS) of the material. I can see why you would think of them as "levers", but it is in fact those sharp tips/edges that are the problem. You are indirectly right in that precipitates with v. high aspect ratios like that can, in fact, break under stress, creating even more sharp interfaces, microvoids, and therefore stress concentration spots. In contrast, "globular" which means round-shaped (as in "globe") create much lower localised stresses and are less likely to break.

First part is good. But you definitely have to compare it to similar alloys and not to an alloy that is not designed for such an application. A380 is used for furnitures, hand tools or 'easy' automotive parts, meaning the specs are not very high, like gearboxes. Then the Tesla alloy is much less impressive, in some regards even worse than existing HPDC alloys. Some commonly used alloys can be found at the alloy suppliers Homepages, like Rheinfelden (Ductile HPDC Aluminium alloys for automotive structural applications) or Alcoa, or even Magna.

Your videos touch on cars, materials, casting, batteries, mechanics, and more. You're either a genius, or you've put a ton of work behind your videos. Thank you very much for your contribution. Regarding the innovation of Tesla's material design, I have a question that has been bothering me for a long time, and I hope you can give me your advice. That is about the stainless steel body of the cybertruck. Some data show that it is made of reinforced 304 stainless steel, but according to my limited material science knowledge, if you want to strengthen stainless steel, the most common way is to increase the carbon content. However, according to the data, the stainless steel body of cybertruck goes in the opposite direction, using ultra-low carbon 304 stainless steel. This approach will undoubtedly further reduce the strength of 304 stainless steel, so how does it achieve strengthening? Moreover, the data also shows that after the cybertruck stainless steel has been strengthened, its stamping performance is very poor, so it has to be designed as a sharp-edged structure without arcs. Generally speaking, materials with poor stamping performance will also have poor welding performance, so how does he solve the problem of body welding? I wonder if you are interested in further talking about the strengthening mechanism of Tesla's stainless steel body? Of course, it must be admitted that this is a more difficult topic than the strengthening mechanism of aluminum alloys. So I look forward to your professional interpretation.
