“…The drawback of having low fracture toughness and poor ductility can, however, be greatly reduced by the addition of alloying elements like Mg and Zr. [1,2] Considering these properties, five different compositions of Al-based zirconium-lithium and magnesium-lithium alloys, prepared and supplied by Hindustan Aircraft Industry (Bangalore, India), were chosen for investigation. The main aim of this investigation was to correlate the results with available X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies on aluminum-based alloy systems.…”
