The microstructure and mechanical properties were determined by transmission electron microscopy(TEM), tensile test and Vicker's hardness test. The experimental results show that the most signified hardening is obtained by double-ageing or multi-ageing for the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Li alloys. The yield strength and the elastic modulus of the Li-containing alloys have relationships with ageing processes. The elastic modulus of Li-containing alloys decreases with the increment of precipitates though it is higher than that of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy.展开更多

Coarsening of precipitates was studied by analyzing the curve of kinetics strength vs the cube of radius. The results show that the coarsening of precipitates conforms to LSW principle. In addition, the characteristic of s^3J(s) vs s curves was analyzed. The results show that the curves for samples aged at 160 ℃ for various durations(24, 48 and 96 h) have negative deviation, which maybe results in the formation of certain new precipitate. In the other aging treatment states, the curves conform to Porod principle which means there is sharp boundary between the precipitates and matrix.展开更多

Attempts to improve the microstructure of 7000 series alloys by addition of 1.0 wt% Li have been made for a long time, but unsystematically. This article compares the microstructural features of 1.0 wt% Li-containing A1-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy with those of Li-free Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy by using differential scanning calorimetric （DSC） techniques, Vickers microhardness and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. The results show the dominance of Guinier Preston （GP） zones, η＇ or η phases in 1.0 wt% Li-containing Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy, and confirm the capability of Li to retard the rate of precipitates growth and coarsening.展开更多
