Abstract:
Second phase dissolution of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys during solution treatment was closely associated with the content of main alloying elements. In present work, the phase characteristics of several Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys with various main alloying contents were investigated, and the second phase dissolution of these alloys during solution treatment was analyzed. The results showed that the extrusion alloys possessed abundant second phases, mainly including Mg(Zn,Cu,Al) 2 phase and Fe-rich particles. The DSC analysis proved that the larger endothermic peak corresponded to the alloy with larger main alloying content, and the XRD spectrogram also backed up the advantage of Mg(Zn,Cu,Al) 2 phase. After solution treated at 450°C, the residual phases remained in the alloys and the quantity of them were positively correlated with the main alloying content. With the increase of solution temperature, the electrical conductivity of the alloys showed a decremental trend, while the alloys with relatively low main alloying contents exhibited an inversion at the solution temperature of 475°C. The SEM observation demonstrated that no Mg(Zn,Cu,Al) 2 phase was observed in the alloys with relatively low main alloying contents while seldom still remained in the alloy with high main alloying content after solution treated at 470°C. After solution treated at 475°C, Mg(Zn,Cu,Al) 2 phase completely dissolved into the matrix for the alloy with high main alloying content. The statistics of residual phase quantity also proved this.
