Problems solved by technology

If you continue to add alloying elements for strengthening, due to the inherent solid solubility of each element in aluminum, the strength will not continue to increase, and the increase in alloying elements will affect the anodizing effect instead, resulting in numbness and dumbness after anodizing
Although the strength of conventional 7-series alloys can meet the requirements of use, because the alloy content is about 10%, the alloy content is high, and a large amount of Zn elements in the alloy participate in the anodic reaction during anodic oxidation, which will lead to loose oxide film and even crack, burst or fall off. , even if some products are not anodized after machining, the existing 7-series alloys cannot meet the small machining deformation required by electronic structural parts, and the fine surface effect after spraying and other processing cannot be mass-produced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aluminum alloys, and specifically relates to an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy and a preparation process. Background technique [0002] On the one hand, aluminum alloys with good mechanical properties can be obtained by adding different alloying elements to aluminum, and then undergo a series of processing and heat treatment; on the other hand, aluminum alloys can be recycled and reused, and have good processing properties. Due to the advantages of the above two aspects, aluminum alloys are widely used in the manufacture of various products. [0003] In terms of mobile phones, as the screen-to-body ratio of mobile phone screens is increasing, in order to better protect large-size screens, higher requirements are put forward for the strength and processing performance of aluminum alloy materials used for frames. The mechanical properties of existing mature 6-series aluminum alloys can only reach a level close to 400MP...
