Effect of Li addition on the precipitation behavior of AA6061 alloy

This study investigates the effect of minor Li addition on the solute clustering and thermal stability of precipitates in artificially aged Al–Mg–Si–Cu (AA6061) alloys. Li addition hinders the initial changes in hardness and electrical conductivity by delaying solute clustering during early aging. T...
