Abstract

The effect of an unconventional thermal treatment method aimed to improve toughness behavior in Al alloys is reported. The method involves solution heat treating and an intermediate warm working step, before final ageing thermal treatment on a AA7050 high resistance aluminum alloy. Results show the possibility to increase fracture toughness behavior without tensile and conductivity (IACS) properties loss by adopting a warm deformation process instead of the standard cold deformation. Moreover, the adoption of an intermediate warm deformation instead of standard cold deformation, allows to reduce material microstructural grain-size heterogeneity.
