Abstract
The microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion behaviors of the peak-aged 2A14 aluminum alloys subjected to pre-stretch prior to artificial aging were investigated. The results indicate that the hardness and strength of the peak-aged alloy can be greatly enhanced via introducing pre-stretch due to the formation of dense and finer θ′ precipitates with dispersed distribution in alloy matrix. Pre-stretch prior to peak aging evidently enhances the peak aging hardness and shortens the peak aging time of the alloy. A pre-stretching degree of 7.5% leads to a distinct inhomogeneous distribution of θ′ phase, which decreases the ultimate tensile strength. As pre-stretching degree increases, the plasticity, impact toughness and exfoliation corrosion (EXCO) resistance of the peak-aged alloy all gradually decrease, but its resistance to intergranular corrosion (IGC) increases and then decreases.
期刊介绍:
The Transactions of Nonferrous Metals Society of China (Trans. Nonferrous Met. Soc. China), founded in 1991 and sponsored by The Nonferrous Metals Society of China, is published monthly now and mainly contains reports of original research which reflect the new progresses in the field of nonferrous metals science and technology, including mineral processing, extraction metallurgy, metallic materials and heat treatments, metal working, physical metallurgy, powder metallurgy, with the emphasis on fundamental science. It is the unique preeminent publication in English for scientists, engineers, under/post-graduates on the field of nonferrous metals industry. This journal is covered by many famous abstract/index systems and databases such as SCI Expanded, Ei Compendex Plus, INSPEC, CA, METADEX, AJ and JICST.
