Effects of Cu additions on the precipitation activation energy and mechanical properties of prestrained Al–Mg–Si alloys

We investigated the effect of different Cu additions (0.1 wt.% and 0.3 wt.%) on the precipitation activation energy and mechanical properties of Al–Mg–Si alloys under different prestraining levels (0%, 3%, and 5%). Tensile tests were performed before and after paint baking (PB). Differential scannin...
