Relations between microstructure, precipitation, age-formability and damage tolerance of Al-Cu-Mg-Li (Mn,Zr,Sc) alloys for age forming

Age forming of Al based alloys for damage tolerant applications requires an alloy with good age formability and good post-forming mechanical properties. To investigate optimisation of this balance, several newly designed Al-Cu-Mg-Li (Mn, Zr, Sc) alloys were subjected to artificial ageing representat...
