Effects of Rapid Quenching on Grain Boundary Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of an Al-Mg-Si-Cu Alloy

Precipitate free zones (PFZs) near grain boundaries generally soften alloys. The quenching rate after solution treatment is an important factor influencing the width of PFZs in Al-Mg-Si-Cu alloy. This study explored the effects of high quenching rates on the grain boundary microstructures and mechan...
