This paper presents the results of microstructure optimization of a laser welded dissimilar Al-Cu-Li joint with different Cu/Li ratios.</p> <p><bold>AIM:</bold> The aim was to study the structure of a laser welded dissimilar Al-Cu-Li joint and to develop methods to improve this structure based on heat treatment.</p> <p><bold>METHODS:</bold> We used scanning electron microscopy, synchrotron radiation diffraction, and tensile testing. Synchrotron radiation (SR) diffraction allowed to detect lithium-containing phases, where they cannot be fully detected using less bright radiation sources due to their volume fraction and scattering.</p> <p><bold>RESULTS:</bold> The study shows that welding promotes creation of a mechanically unfavorable microstructure; dendritic grains of aluminum surrounded by an eutectic network of intermetallic compounds T<sub>1</sub>Al<sub>2</sub>CuLi, T<sub>2</sub>Al<sub>6</sub>CuLi<sub>3</sub>, and T<sub>3</sub>Al<sub>5</sub>CuLi<sub>3</sub>. In this state, the weld seam had low mechanical properties; tensile strength σ<sub>В</sub> was 252 MPa, yield strength σ<sub>0.2</sub> was 184 MPa, and linear strain δ was 2.9%. Thermal quenching at 530 °C allowed to almost completely dissolve the eutectic network, which was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. Artificial aging at 170 °C for 16 hours allowed for the recrystallization of the strengthening phases. As a result, the welded joint tensile strength σ<sub>В</sub> increased to 344 MPa, yield strength σ<sub>0.2</sub> increased to 230 MPa and the linear strain δ increased to 4.8%.</p> <p><bold>CONCLUSION:</bold> The study allowed to identify the structure of laser welded dissimilar Al-Cu-Li joints and showed that this structure can be improved by heat treatment, ensuring a significant increase in both the strength properties and ductility of the joint.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><bold>Актуальность.</bold> Соединение разнородных материалов — сложная, но вместе с тем важная задача для промышленности, поскольку применение разнородных материалов в сложных конструкциях неизбежно. В данной статье приведены результаты работы по оптимизации микроструктуры разнородного лазерного сварного соединения Al-Cu-Li сплавов с различным соотношением Cu/Li.</p> <p><bold>Цель работы.</bold> Целью работы было изучение структуры лазерного сварного соединения между разнородными Al-Cu-Li сплавами, а также разработка методов улучшения этой структуре на основе термической обработки.</p> <p><bold>Материалы и методы исследования.</bold> В работе применялись методы растровой электронной микроскопии, дифракции синхротронного излучения, а также испытания на растяжение. Применение дифракции СИ позволило установить присутствие литий-содержащих фаз, объёмная доля и рассеивающая способность которых не позволяет в полной мере обнаружить их, используя менее яркие источники излучения.</p> <p><bold>Результаты.</bold> Показано, что сварка приводит к формированию неблагоприятной микроструктуры с точки зрения механических свойств — дендритные зёрна алюминия, окруженные эвтектической сеткой из интерметаллидных соединений T<sub>1</sub>Al<sub>2</sub>CuLi, T<sub>2</sub>Al<sub>6</sub>CuLi<sub>3</sub> и T<sub>3</sub>Al<sub>5</sub>CuLi<sub>3</sub>. В таком состоянии сварной шов обладал низкими механическими свойствами: предел прочности σ<sub>В</sub> составлял 252 МПа, предел текучести σ<sub>0,2</sub> 184 МПа и относительное удлинение δ 2,9 %. Закалка при 530 °C позволила практически полностью растворить эвтектическую сетку, что было подтверждено растровой электронной микроскопией. Искусственное старение при 170 °C в течении 16 часов позволило добиться рекристаллизации упрочняющих фаз, что привело к увеличению предела прочности сварного соединения σ<sub>В</sub> до 344 МПа, предела текучести σ<sub>0,2</sub> до 230 МПа и относительного удлинения δ до 4,8 %.</p> <p><bold>Заключение.</bold> В результате работы была установлена структура лазерных сварных соединения разнородных Al-Cu-Li сплавов, а также показано, что эту структуру можно улучшить при помощи термической обработки, таким образом достигая значительного прироста как прочностных свойств соединения, так и его пластичности.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>aluminum alloys</kwd><kwd>dissimilar welding</kwd><kwd>laser welding</kwd><kwd>heat treatment</kwd><kwd>synchrotron radiation diffraction</kwd><kwd>scanning electron microscopy</kwd><kwd>tensile testing</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>алюминиевые сплавы</kwd><kwd>разнородная сварка</kwd><kwd>лазерная сварка</kwd><kwd>термическая обработка</kwd><kwd>дифракция синхротронного излучения</kwd><kwd>сканирующая электронная микроскопия</kwd><kwd>испытания на растяжение</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><award-group><funding-source><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="ru">Министерство науки и высшего образования Российской Федерации</institution></institution-wrap><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="en">Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation</institution></institution-wrap></funding-source></award-group></funding-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Dursun T, Soutis C.
