摘要
The effects of Cu addition on the microstructure and thermal stability of 6082 Al-Mg-Si alloys were investigated. The results show the Q ' precipitates are formed when aged at 170 degrees C for 4 h in 6082 alloy with 0.6% Cu addition. The hardness value of the alloy with 0.6% Cu is always distinctly higher than that of the alloy without Cu during isothermal treatment at 250 degrees C. Based on the TEM and three-dimensional atom probe (3DAP) results, the thermal stability of the 6082 alloys with Cu addition is discussed with respect to the distribution of Cu. (C) 2006 Elsevier B.V.
