Abstract
ABSTRACT The composition of precipitates in peak-aged Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys with various Zn/Mg ratios has been investigated by atom probe tomography (APT). The results show that the η′ and the T′ phases have different compositions with a similar Zn/Mg ratio in the same alloy. The Zn/Mg ratio within precipitates was shown to be positively correlated with the Zn/Mg ratio in the alloy. Moreover, the size dependency of composition for ageing precipitates in Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys has been determined. This study enriches the understanding of precipitate composition relative to that of the bulk in Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys.
期刊介绍:
Philosophical Magazine Letters is the rapid communications part of the highly respected Philosophical Magazine, which was first published in 1798. Its Editors consider for publication short and timely contributions in the field of condensed matter describing original results, theories and concepts relating to the structure and properties of crystalline materials, ceramics, polymers, glasses, amorphous films, composites and soft matter. Articles emphasizing experimental, theoretical and modelling studies on solids, especially those that interpret behaviour on a microscopic, atomic or electronic scale, are particularly appropriate.
Manuscripts are considered on the strict condition that they have been submitted only to Philosophical Magazine Letters , that they have not been published already, and that they are not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
