Abstract

A method for improving the damage tolerance performance of an Al-Cu-Mg alloy is to carry out a solid solution + water quenching treatment on an Al-Cu-Mg alloy plate, and then perform a cold rolling pre-deformation treatment with a deformation amount of 6-15%, and then Perform aging treatment. The process of the invention is simple and reasonable, through cold rolling with small deformation amount after solid solution quenching, a certain compressive stress layer is generated on the surface of the plate, and the formation and expansion of cracks under the action of fatigue stress are effectively inhibited. With the natural aging treatment, the surface layer has a large density of dislocations due to the pre-deformation of cold rolling, which makes the alloy precipitate large-sized Cu-Mg atomic clusters during the natural aging process, and increases the Cu/Mg mass ratio of the clusters, so that The surface layer of the plate produces a large order strengthening effect and modulus strengthening effect; artificial aging treatment can cause the plate to precipitate a fine and dispersed second phase, and at the same time, the higher density dislocations on the surface can form a finer and dispersed second phase on the surface of the plate. Two phases, thereby hindering the formation and propagation of fatigue cracks in the surface area, and improving the fatigue resistance damage tolerance performance of the plate. This surface-hard-core-tough structure can effectively improve the damage tolerance performance of the plate, and is suitable for industrial applications.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention discloses a method for improving the anti-damage tolerance performance of Al-Cu-Mg alloy; in particular, it relates to a method for improving the stress field intensity factor during fatigue fracture of Al-Cu-Mg alloy, which belongs to the field of non-ferrous metal material processing. Background technique [0002] Due to its medium strength, good toughness and excellent fatigue resistance, Al-Cu-Mg alloy is a precipitation hardening aluminum alloy widely used in aerospace, especially as aircraft skin and bulkhead materials, accounting for the weight of aircraft materials About 50% of the aviation industry has an extremely important position in the aviation field. However, with the development of aviation technology, aircraft structural materials are required not only to have high static strength, but also to have good damage tolerance performance. Damage tolerance performance not only refers to the low rate of fatigue crack growth, Mor...
