Microstructure tuning enables synergistic improvements in strength and ductility of wire-arc additive manufactured commercial Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys
It remains challenging to achieve attractive mechanical strength and ductility in commercial 7xxx alloys fabricated by wire-arc additive manufacturing (WAAM). Here, we combine WAAM processing with solution and artificial aging treatments to functionalise their inherent age-hardening capabilities via...
