By increasing the Mg content and adding Cu and Zn into Al-Mg-Si alloys, beta and i' phases were precipitated in the alloy, leading to a synergistic strengthening effect and higher strength compared to single-phase precipitates. Specifically, the yield strength and tensile strength increased by 18.1 and 17.7 MPa, respectively.
Based on the concepts of high alloying degree and two-phase synergistic strengthening, a new strategy is provided to increase the low strength of 6000-series (Al-Mg-Si) alloys. By increasing the Mg content and adding Cu and Zn into Al-Mg-Si alloys according to phase calculations, beta and i' phases were precipitated in the alloy, as shown by TEM and APT results. This is different from the single-phase precipitates typically observed in Al-MgSi-Cu-Zn alloys. The strength of the two-phase synergistically precipitated alloy was higher than that of the single-phase precipitated alloy. Specifically, the yield strength and tensile strength increased by 18.1 and 17.7 MPa, respectively.
