Abstract

The effect of slow quenching following solution heat treatment on naturally aged Al-Cu-Mg alloy can be detected by corrosion potentials and accelerated corrosion tests for intergranular corrosion and stress-corrosion susceptibility. Faster quenching rates gives no indication of the existence of any continuous anodic paths until a stress is applied. A possible mechanism for this is proposed based on the electrochemical effect of stress.
