Abstract: The creep-rupture behavior of an ageing hardened Al-Li-Cu -Mg-Zr alloy has been investigated at 463~563 K. Results indicate that creep rupture life is associated with the coarsening of precipitates,the precipitation of equilibrium phases and the formation of precipitate free zones at the grain boundaries during creep testing. A small amount of cold working before ageing tends to increase the creep life, which is attributed to a large quantity of homogeneously distributed S'' precipitates present in the tested alloy. It is suggested that subgrain boundaries stabilized by S'' precipitates appear to be less effective as sinks for dislocations,so that the onset of rapid dynamic recovery delays and the resistance against creep failure increases.
