摘要
The change of mechanical properties of the 8090 Al-Li alloy influenced by aging is attributed to the change of δ′-phase particle size and the precipitation of S′-phase.The δ′-phase may easily precipitate and rapidly grow,but the S′-phase can only precipitate with a longer stage of incubation.The precipitation of S′-phase would be promoted by cold working prior to ag- ing.The co-precipitation of δ′- and S′-phase could improve the strength and plastieity of the alloy,for which aging at 190℃.for 20—30 h seems to be optimal.In addition,the precipitate free zone( PFZ)can form at high angle grain boundary and its width is over 200 nm in peak aging condition.But at sub-grain boundary,the formation of PFZ is difficult.
