Abstract


Studies of transformation kinetics during ageing of Al-3.7 wt% Cu were performed by use of X-ray diffraction and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) methods at different heating rates. Both non-isothermal and isothermal ageing processes were conducted in order to determine the isothermal transformation kinetics based on the JMA (Johnson-Mehl-Avrami) equation and the Avrami exponent, n, whose mean is ~ 1:78. The frequency factor calculated by the isothermal treatment is ~ 1:65×106 s-1. The activation energy of discontinuous precipitation has been calculated according to the three models proposed by Kissinger, Ozawa, and Boswell. © 2013 The Physical Society of the Republic of China.
