The results show that with the decrease of quenching rate from 960 ℃/s to 2 ℃/s, the hardness after aging is decreased by about 33% for the homogenized and solution heat treated alloy(H-alloy) with large equiaxed grains and about 43% for the extruded and solution heat treated alloy(E-alloy) with elongated grains and subgrains. Cr-containing dispersoids make contribution to about 33% decrement in hardness of the H-alloy due to slow quenching; while in the E-alloy, the amount of(sub) grain boundaries is increased by about one order of magnitude, which leads to a further 10% decrement in hardness due to slow quenching and therefore higher quench sensitivity.展开更多
