Properties of clad sheets.

The effect of a complete heat treatment includes a quenching effect and an aging effect. The effects of quenching and aging on strength are different for different aluminum alloys.

Aging effect

This is the process whereby the supersaturated solid solution dissolves in an alloy after quenching without a polymorphic transformation. The aging phenomenon of aluminum alloys was discovered by Wilm. He found that an alloy of aluminium with copper and magnesium that had been quenched at 500°C in water became stronger and harder after four days of exposure (t° 50°C) without loss of ductility. Heating accelerated the aging process. Of the dural alloys, alloy D16 had the greatest effect of heat treatment. The term "natural aging" is accepted for aging without special heating and "artificial aging" for aging under special heating after quenching. The structural transformations during aging need to be explained. The decomposition of solid solution usually proceeds in three stages. 1) formation of coherent with matrix GP zones (Guinier-Preston), 2) formation of partially coherent metastable phases, 3) formation of incoherent particles of stable phase. Some alloys do not age at room temperature and require special heating to start aging. In other alloys, the transition from natural to artificial aging (i.e., from zones to phases) also occurs at room temperature, although at very long dwell times.

Aging of duralumin

Natural aging of duralumin achieves high ductility but less strength compared to annealed alloys. The fact is that the temperature of 20-100°C gives hardening due to the formation of GP zones, and at higher temperatures there is a release of metastable phase S', (stable S-Al2 CuMg). Further increase in temperature and aging time leads to coagulation of metastable phases and a decrease in strength. In industrial production for acceptance and quality assessment, alloy D16 undergoes accelerated aging at 100 °C for several hours. This is justified because in both cases a similar zone aging process takes place and a similar strength is achieved. At the same time there is a release of particles of metastable phases along the boundaries, which reduces the corrosion resistance.
