Study of the Precipitation Kinetics, Microstructures, and Mechanical Properties of Al-Zn-Mg-xCu Alloys

Microstructures and mechanical properties of Al-5Zn-2.6Mg alloys with 0.24, 0.43, and 0.91 wt.% Cu were studied and the precipitation rate and activation energy at 378, 393, and 408 K were calculated using the Arrhenius equation in this work. The aging reaction rate k increased and the precipitation...
