Abstract: Multi-alloy composite sheets and methods of producing the composite sheets for use in automotive applications are disclosed. The automotive application may include an automotive panel having a bi-layer or a tri-layer composite sheet with 3xxx and 6xxx aluminum alloys. The composite sheets may be produced by roll bonding or multi-alloy casting, among other techniques. Each of the composite sheets may demonstrate good flat hem rating and mechanical properties, long shelf life, and high dent resistance, among other properties.

Abstract: The present invention relates to aluminum brazing sheet with high levels of Magnesium in the core layer and having good Controlled Atmosphere Brazing (CAB) brazeability and suitable for use with any commercially available brazing flux, including brazing flux with or without Cesium.
