Effect of Heat Treatment on the Mechanical Properties of Wrought Al-Zn-Mg-Cu Alloy Cast by Rapid Solidification

Abstract:

The article presents the change in mechanical properties of AlZn9Mg2.5Cu1.8 alloy resulting from the process of solution heat treatment and aging. The heat treatment was performed on a unique UMSA (Universal Metallurgical Simulator and Analyzer) device. The aim of the study was to determine optimum heat treatment parameters for the tested alloy of ultrafine grain structure obtained by Rapid Solidification (RS). To achieve this purpose, heat treatment to the T4 and T6 condition was carried out. The solution heat treatment was carried out at a constant temperature of 460 °C for 2 hours, while the time - temperature parameters of the aging process varied. The treatment undertaken resulted in improved mechanical properties.
