The application removes Cu element in the alloy composition design, thereby eliminating a copper-rich area which is easy to generate anodic dissolution and helping the corrosion performance of the aluminum-lithium alloy to a certain extent. But also directly results in T1 (Al) 2 CuLi) phase is not existed, the alloy is difficult to obtain higher strength, and the application of the alloy as engineering components in marine military equipment is greatly limited.

The alloy plate has room temperature tensile strength exceeding 600Mpa after casting, two-stage homogenization, rolling, two-stage solution treatment and aging treatment, but the corrosion performance among the alloy is not evaluated, and particularly, the ultrahigh copper content (more than 3.9%) in the alloy causes a large amount of copper-containing phases with negative potential to be separated out from the alloy, so that the corrosion resistance of the alloy is possibly reduced. If researches show that the maximum inter-crystal corrosion depth of the Al-1.0Li-4.0Cu-0.4 Mg-0.4 Ag-0.14Zr (mass percent) wrought aluminum alloy reaches 340um, and the inter-crystal corrosion grade is as high as 5 grades.
