Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aluminum alloys, and in particular relates to a high-strength and high-toughness aluminum-lithium alloy and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Aluminum-lithium alloy is a light-weight, high-strength and corrosion-resistant metal structure material. For every 1% lithium added to the alloy, the density will decrease by 3%, which can increase the elastic modulus of the alloy while reducing the density of the alloy. It is used in aviation and aerospace fields. There are very broad application prospects. The use of aluminum-lithium alloys instead of conventional high-strength aluminum alloys can reduce the structural mass by 10% to 20%, increase the elastic modulus by 6%, and increase the stiffness by 15% to 20%. It is considered to be the most ideal structural material for aerospace. [0003] Lithium is the most active metal element in chemical properties. Adding lithium to aluminum ...
