Problems solved by technology

Studies have shown that artificial aging or long-term heat exposure will cause the precipitation of equilibrium phases in naturally-aged alloys, which are generally difficult to be cut by dislocations, which makes it difficult for dislocations to recover and cause fatigue crack tips during cyclic deformation of the alloy. Uniform deformation thus accelerates fatigue crack growth

Abstract

The present invention discloses one heat treating process for aluminum alloy to obtain anitfatigue microstructure with high heat stability. The treating process for aluminum alloy plate includes the first solution treatment at 490-500 deg.c, and the subsequent artificial ageing treatment at 170-200 deg.c for 20-60 min. The heat treating process makes the Al-Cu-Mg alloy obtain reinforcing GPB structure in relatively large size, excellent antifatigue performance, delayed degradation of the antifatigue performance and anitfatigue microstructure with high heat stability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a processing method for aluminum alloy, in particular to a processing method for obtaining a microstructure with high thermal stability, high strength and anti-fatigue for Al-Cu-Mg alloy. Background technique [0002] Al-Cu-Mg alloys with low Cu / Mg ratio are widely used in aerospace due to their moderate strength, good toughness and excellent fatigue properties. The aging precipitation sequence of this series of alloys is: GPB zone, S′ phase, S phase. According to different service conditions, the heat treatment state of the alloy is also different, so the microstructure state in the alloy is also different. The aging state of the alloy used as a damage-resistant component is generally the natural aging state, that is to say, the microstructure of the alloy is in the GPB zone stage of aging precipitation. Literature studies have shown that the slip occurring in multiple slip systems of pure aluminum alloys is irreversible due...
