摘要: Abstract Quench sensitivity in Al–Mg–Si alloys has been largely attributed to the solute loss at heterogeneous nucleation sites, primarily dispersoids, during slow cooling after extrusion. As such, number density of type and concentration are considered be key variables for quench sensitivity. In this study, influence natural ageing a lean alloy, AA6060, which contains few have investigated by hardness measurement, thermal analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS). It is shown that alloy associated with degree supersaturation vacancies cooling. Due vacancy clustering ageing, more pronounced short time (30 min) compared longer (24 h). Therefore, prolonged not only leads an increase hardness, but can also positive effect on alloys.
