Mechanical properties and microstructures of Al-Li-Cu-Mg-Ag alloy after solution treatments were investigated by means of optical microscopy （OM）, tensile test, hardness measurement and electrical conductivity test,...Mechanical properties and microstructures of Al-Li-Cu-Mg-Ag alloy after solution treatments were investigated by means of optical microscopy （OM）, tensile test, hardness measurement and electrical conductivity test, differential scanning calorimetric （DSC）, energy dispersive X-ray （EDX）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and transition electron microscopy （TEM）, respectively The results show that both tensile strength and hardness increase first and then decrease with temperature at constant holding time of 30 min with maximum strength and hardness appearing at 520 ℃. Tensile strength, hardness and elongation of samples treated at 520 ℃ for 30 min are 566 MPa （σb）, 512 MPa （σ0.2）, HB 148 and 8.23% （δ）, respectively. There are certain amount of fine T1 （AI2CuLi） phase dispersing among AI substrates according to TEM images. This may result in mixed fracture morphology with trans-granular and inter-granular delamination cracks observed in SEM images.展开更多
