Abstract

Two age-hardenable AlCuMg alloys (Cu 4.5 wt.% and Cu/Mg ratios of 2.5 and 8) were studied by electrical resistivity, differential scanning calorimetry, and microhardness measurements during natural and artificial aging at 110 °C. The results were interpreted in terms of Guinier–Preston/Guinier–Preston–Bagariatskij zone formation followed by a modification in θ″ and S″ intermediate phases.
