Abstract The aging precipitation structure and its properties of the Al-Li-Cu-Zr alloys with 3 different Cu/Li ratios have been studied. Experimental resultsshow that the aging hardening of the alloys consists of two steps: the first is stre-ngthened by δ'-phase (δ'+T_1 phase in alloy No.3), and the second by δ'+T_1 phase(δ'+T_1+θ' phase in alloy No.3). The plate of T_1-phase can absorb the Li atomsfrom δ' particles when the plate bumped into δ"-phase, and therefore, these δ' pha-se particles become smaller and gradually disappear. The strength and hardness areincreased with the increase of Cu/Li ratio which cuased a decrease in plasticity.The crack mode would change from transgranular to intergranular. This is due to theprecipitation of the equilibrium phases contained Cu at grain boundaries.
