Aluminium-copper alloys of the 2xxx type receive their strength during hardening at room or elevated temperature by the formation of copper-rich precipitates. They are responsible for the final mechanical properties of these alloys. Alloying small amounts of Cd, In or Sn influences the precipitation behavior as well as the final strength of Al-Cu alloys. Obviously, quenched-in vacancies are bound to trace element atoms in the aluminium matrix. Thus, the diffusion behavior of the copper atoms is influenced and the main type of the formed precipitates changes. For high-purity ternary alloys we investigate the interaction of copper atoms and trace elements (In, Sn, and Pb) with quenched-in vacancies. By employing Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Small Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS), Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy (PALS) as well as Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) we obtain a comprehensive picture.
