The compression creep behaviors of 2618 alloy with different compositions prepared by different smelting-casting methods were examined by Gleeble-1 500 thermal simulator.It was found that 2618 aluminum alloy exhibits a higher creep stress exponent.The creep behaviors of the alloy can be described by using threshold stress.The threshold stress of the alloy melt containing high Fe and Ni can be improved by elevated treatment and Zr
