Problems solved by technology

However, due to the limited regression time, the grain boundary precipitates cannot fully grow and separate, and the improvement of corrosion resistance is limited.
In regression reaging, if the regression time is extended, a large amount of equilibrium phases will be precipitated in the grain, which will reduce the hardening effect of reaging, and it will not be possible to further improve corrosion resistance while maintaining strength

Abstract

The invention discloses an aging treatment process of an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu aluminum alloy, which comprises: keeping an aging temperature of 120 DEG C for 24 hours and a regression temperature of 170 to 200 DEG C for 5 to 30 minutes; after the regression, quenching the alloy or cooling the alloy with furnace to an reaging temperature and keeping the reaging temperature of 120 DEG C for 24 hours; and after primary regression and reaging, performing one or more times of regression and reaging. Aiming at the drawbacks of the traditional Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy peak aging, overaging and primary regression and reaging heat treatment technology, the invention provides a novel aging treatment method on the basis of a discovery that in the secondary regression after the primary regression and reaging of the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy, a grain boundary precipitate phase can continue to grow and disperse while the intra-grain precipitate phase can dissolve in a matrix again to ensure the alloy can precipitate till a peak aging state in consequent reaging. The treatment method can improve the corrosion resistance of the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy considerably on the premise of retaining the strength of the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to an aluminum alloy heat treatment method, in particular to an aging treatment process for an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu series aluminum alloy. Background technique [0002] The Al-Zn-Mg-Cu series aluminum alloy is a high-strength aluminum alloy that can be strengthened by heat treatment. The strength of the alloy can be improved by quenching and aging process, but the precipitates on the grain boundary are enriched and distributed continuously during the aging process, which reduces the strength of the alloy. toughness and corrosion resistance. In order to improve the toughness and corrosion resistance of alloys, people mainly use multi-stage aging process to adjust the distribution of precipitates in grains and grain boundaries. The dual-stage aging process of peak aging + overaging is adopted (Journal of Central South University (Natural Science Edition), 2007, Volume 38, No. 6, P1045), in which the first-stage aging is low-temperature pre-...
