preparation example Construction

[0040] In some embodiments, a method for preparing a high-strength, damage-resistant aluminum-lithium alloy sheet includes the following steps: smelting and casting into an ingot according to the designed ratio of aluminum-lithium alloy elements, and then annealing the ingot, hot rolling, Intermediate annealing, cold rolling into sheets, and then through solution quenching, pre-deformation, and aging treatment to obtain the final sheet.

[0041] Preferably, the cast aluminum-lithium alloy ingot is subjected to three-stage annealing treatment, and the annealing process is (300~400)°C×(2~8)h+(400~460)°C×(2~10)h+(480~500 )℃×(20~30)h. More preferably, the annealing process is (350~380)°C×(3~5)h+(430~450)°C×(4~6)h+(490~500)°C×(20~24)h. The purpose of the three-stage annealing with successively increasing temperatures is to gradually dissolve the non-equilibrium solidified phases of different melting points in the ingot during the heating process, thereby reducing the occurrence of...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aluminum alloy material preparation and processing, and particularly relates to a high-strength damage-resistant aluminum-lithium alloy and a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Advanced light metal materials with high specific strength, high specific stiffness and low fatigue crack growth rate are one of the main measures to reduce the weight of aircraft structures and reduce the structural weight coefficient. Experience shows that reducing the material density by 10% can generally reduce the weight of the aircraft structure by 10%; while increasing the mechanical properties of the material (such as strength) by 10% can only achieve a structural weight reduction of about 1% to 3%. Therefore, the development of light alloy materials with high specific strength, high specific stiffness and low fatigue crack growth rate is the most effective method to reduce the structu...
