The effect of Ag element on the microstructure characteristic evolution of an Al–Cu–Li–Mg alloy

The influence of Ag on the microstructure evolution of an aged Al–Cu–Li–Mg alloy was studied. The coarse Cu-rich precipitates containing Ag and Mg were found during the whole ageing process of Al–Cu–Li–Mg–Ag alloy. Besides, Ag addition in the Al–Cu–Li–Mg alloy accelerates the hardness value reductio...
