Precipitation hardening is a commonly used strengthening method for Al alloys. The figure below shows the Al-rich side of the Al-Cu phase diagram. 700 600 L a+L 5.66 5480 1 500 a 400 Temperature (°C) 300 a+ 200 3 100 2 0 ΑΙ 2 4 6 8 Weight percent copper Figure 1: Al-rich side of the binary Al-Cu phase diagram. (a) (5 marks) What is the maximum amount of Cu practically possible to add to obtain high strength and tough Al alloys? Explain why there is such a limit.
