摘要
The influence of pre-deformation on aging precipitates of three near peak-aged Al–Cu–Li alloys,1460 alloy with a low Cu/Li ratio（1.46）,2050 alloy with a high Cu/Li ratio（4.51） and 2A96 alloy with a medium Cu/Li ratio（2.97）,was investigated.The strength of the aged alloys is enhanced by the pre-deformation.The effectiveness of pre-deformation on precipitates is dependent on the alloy＇s composition.With increasing the pre-deformation,the population density of T1（Al2Cu Li） precipitates increases in all three Al–Cu–Li alloys and their diameter decreases in 2050 and 2A96 alloys,and the greatest effectiveness is observed in 2A96 alloy.The pre-deformation also increases the population density of θ＇（Al2Cu）precipitates and decreases their diameter in 2050 and 2A96 Al–Li alloys,but the effectiveness is smaller compared to that on T1 precipitates.In 1460 alloy subjected to two-step aging at 130 ℃ for 20 h followed by 160 ℃ for 12 h,the main precipitates are δ＇（Al3Li）.At 2%–6% pre-deformation,GP-I zones form and pre-deformation displays little influence.Eight percentage pre-deformation promotes θ＇＇/θ＇ precipitation and increases their population density.
