Aluminum alloys containing scandium show excellent mechanical properties due to the presence of Al3Sc precipitates, which control the dislocation and grain boundary motion during the recrystallization processes. An addition of Zr can further improve the properties due to the formation of Al3(Sc,Zr) dispersoids, which are more stable at elevated temperatures. In this work we investigate a commercial aluminum alloy AA5024, containing Sc, Zr, Ti and Mg additions. The particles size, chemistry and distribution were investigated by analytical transmission electron microscopy and geometric phase analysis was applied to map local strains. It is found that the Al(Sc,Zr,Ti)-precipitates reveal complex core-shell structures which are strongly affected by mechanical deformation and heat treatment. The experimental findings are compared with predictions based on DFT calculations, which indicate the existence of a critical size for the appearance of ternary Al3(Sc,Zr) shells.
