摘 要:Effects of additions of trace Sn on the bake-hardening responses of a pre-aged Al-0.85 Mg-0.85 Si(in wt%)alloy were investigated through mechanical tests,differential scanning calorimetry,electrical resistivity and transmission electron *** indicate that trace Sn additions reduced the number density of pre-aging clusters by inhibiting the formation of unstable counterpart during pre-aging treatment,leading to low strength and high supersaturation of solute *** a subsequent paint-bake treatment,the presence of highly supersaturated solute atoms and high concentrated free vacancies moderated the activation energy barrier ofβ’’phase and thus kinetically accelerated the formation ofβ’’.Consequently,the trace Sn additions enhanced the bake-hardening responses of the pre-aged alloys *** Sn-containing pre-aged Al-Mg-Si alloys with low strength and great bake-hardening responses hold promising potential for automotive body skin applications.
