Research of the influence of rolling and heat treatment on the structure and properties of sheets from aluminum-lithium alloy V-1461

Experimental research of the influence of the rolling and heat treatment routes of sheets from V-1461 alloy on the structure and mechanical properties are carried out. Experimental rolling routes were: hot rolling - preliminary heat treatment (annealing or quenching) - cold rolling - final annealing. Based on the studies, it was conducted that intermediate annealing before cold rolling positively affects the mechanical properties of both cold-rolled and annealed sheets of V-1461 alloy.
