Abstract (en)
The present invention is directed to a thick plate high strength 7xxx aluminum alloy product comprising 8.0 to 8.4 wt.% Zn, 1.5 to 2.0 wt.% Mg, 1.1 to 1.5 wt.% Cu, and 0.05 to 0.15 wt.% Zr, 4.0 to 5.3 of Zn/Mg weight percentage ratio, 0.14 to 0.19 of Cu/Zn weight percentage ratio, and 10.7 to 11.6 wt.% of Cu+Mg+Zn. This alloy can be fabricated to produce 3-10 inch thick plate, extrusion or forging products, and is especially suitable for aerospace structural components, especially large commercial airplane wing structure applications. The product provides high strength, high damage tolerance performance as well as better corrosion resistance performance suitable for aerospace application.
