Aluminum alloys exhibiting an improved weight/toughness ratio have been the primary materials for some structural components of aircraft applications. Such alloys can be strengthened through an imposed precipitation by a thermo-mechanical aging treatment. The primary strengthening precipitates T1(Al2CuLi) and other metastable phases such as θ′(Al2Cu) and δ′(Al3Li) are expected to form at different stages of the post heat treatment of the alloy. Hence, an understanding of the distribution of alloying elements and of prestages of precipitation becomes imperative to understand the link between the microstructure and mechanical functionality of the respective alloy. In this study the Laser Assisted Wide Angle Atom Probe Tomography (LAWATAP) was applied to investigate the decomposed microstructure and the possible origins of hardening precipitates in a commercial Al-Li-Cu alloy (AA2195).
