Effect of heat treatment and Cu addition on the mechanical, electrochemical, and precipitation behavior of Al–Mg–Si alloys by Hyun-Bin Hong, Raj Narayan Hajra, Eunjoo Shin, Jae-Kook Kim, Jong-Sook Lee, Jeoung Han Kim, JaeHwang Kim, Hoon-Hwe Cho

“…The addition of Cu enhances mechanical strength by refining precipitates and introducing Cu-containing phases, such as Q′ and L, while initially increasing the susceptibility to intergranular corrosion (IGC) due to Cu segregation at grain boundaries. Advanced characterization techniques, including transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), reveal the evolution of precipitate size, distribution, and volume fraction under varying aging conditions. …”
