Russian Metallurgy (Metally) Aims and scope

Abstract

Differential scanning calorimetry data are presented for the 01979 alloy produced by granular technology. The optimum quenching temperature is confirmed. Strengthening phases dissolve most completely at this temperature. The phase composition of the high-strength aluminum alloy is studied using scanning microscopy and electron microprobe analysis. The AlCu4, AlCr2, and MgZn2 phases and their interplanar spacings are determined.
