The first precipitates to appear during aging at 150°C were thin hexagonalshaped plate-like precipitates which formed on the {lll}Al planes. These precipitates had a facecentred orthorhombic crystal structure and their composition was essentially CuA1, although they contained a trace of silver. At peak hardness the microstructure consisted of the plate-like precipitates on {lll}Al planes and 0' precipitates on {lOO}A1 planes. Overaging resulted in the precipitation of equilibrium 8, CuAl,, which exhibited a lath morphology and a n orientation-relationship with the matrix (210)Al 1 I (llOIy; (OO1)A1 misoriented from (OOl), by-6". Prolonged overaging at 250°C resulted in the formation of cuboid-shaped Al,(Cu,Zn),Mg, precipitates which had a cubic crystal structure and a cube:cube orientation-relationship with the matrix.
