Quantitative analysis of the microstructures of the ZL107 alloy under equilibrium conditions was performed using thermodynamic calculations. The effects of chemical composition and temperature on the microstructures of the alloy were investigated
and the microstructures of the alloy were also observed. The results show that the precipitating temperature and amounts of Al2Cu are controlled by Cu content
where the Al2Cu phase and precipitated temperature are increased with increasing in Cu content. However
the amounts of Al2Cu are decreased with the aging temperature higher than 210 ℃
and the optimized solid solution temperature and aging temperature are in range of 510
5
20 ℃ and of 150
2
00 ℃
respectively
through the thermodynamic calculation
which are well in agreement with experimental ones.
