4. Microstructure investigations. In order to reveal the mechanism of shock-induced structural instability of studied materials, the microstructural investigations of post-shocked specimens has been performed. All the specimens were cut along the wave propagation direction and studied with “Obsevier - Z1”microscope. The structure of both kinds of aluminum alloy consists of heterogeneous elongated grains. Herewith, the structure of 1565 aluminum alloy has a much more texture features. In 1565 alloy the dimensions of grains range within 5-50 whereas in 1561 alloy within 5-120 µm. The concentration of intermetallides at the grain boundaries in 1565 alloy is much smaller as compared with 1561 alloy (see Figs. 5).
