Abstract
The present disclosure provides a short-process high-performance forming method of a high-strength aluminum alloy, and use thereof. In the present disclosure, pre-hardening treatment is conducted on an obtained W-temper aluminum alloy sheet blank after a solution treatment and quenching, to obtain a pre-hardened aluminum alloy sheet blank for batch supply. The pre-hardened aluminum alloy sheet blank is subjected to plastic forming, to obtain a component with satisfactory performances. After the pre-hardening treatment, a high-strength aluminum alloy sheet blank forms a GPII zone that is completely coherent with a matrix, and has a room-temperature formability exceeding that off traditional soft sheet blank. Moreover, the GPII zones interact with dislocations during the forming, resulting in planar slips. In this way, large-scale dynamic recovery is more effectively suppressed, thus enhancing a work hardening ability of a formed component. In addition, a large number of nano-stacking faults are generated during deformation.
