Effects of Pre-Strain on the Aging Behavior of Al 7075 Alloy for Hot-Stamping Capability

The present study investigates the significance of pre-strain on the T6 aging behavior of an Al 7075 alloy for evaluating the applicability of hot stamping. In practice, the alloy was pre-strained up to 15% during solution heat treatment at 480 °C prior to quenching, and artificial aging was conduct...
