HIGH STRENGTH ALUMINUM ALLOY

摘要

High strength aluminum alloys and methods for producing them. The alloys consist essentially of about 9.0 to 10.3 wt. % zinc, about 2.5 to 3.5 wt. % magnesium, about 1.5 to 3.0 wt. % copper and less than about 0.05 wt. % of any other alloying constituent. The balance consists of aluminum. These alloys are compatible with ceramic reinforcements used in metal matrix composites.
