The effect of pre-ageing and addition of copper on the precipitation behaviour in Al-Mg-Si alloys
Hardness measurements and 3-dimensional atom probe analysis have been used to characterise the precipitation behaviour in two 6xxx series aluminium alloys, one Cu-free alloy (Al-0.78at%Mg0.68at%Si) and one Cu-containing alloy (Al-0.78at%Mg-0.68at%Si-0.30at%Cu). The heat treatments consisted of eithe...
