Hardening of an Al-Cu-Mg alloy containing type I and II S phase precipitates

The effect of different thermo-mechanical treatments on the hardness of the 2024 (Al-Cu-Mg) alloy was studied. Artificial ageing was conducted through heating at a constant rate to specific temperatures followed by rapid cooling. It was found that quenched only alloy 2024, which is found to form Typ...
