The impact of different rolling orientations (0 degrees, 45 degrees and 90 degrees) on the microstructure, mechanical, in-plane anisotropy (IPA) and gamma rays (y-rays) shielding properties of a lately developed Al-Cu-Li-Mg-X (X = Mn, Zr, Zn) alloy was investigated. The results showed that rolling along several directions corresponded to distinctive microstructures, which considerably affected the properties. The main strengthening phases in the alloy were delta'(Al3Li), Al-3(Zr,Li) and T-1(Al2CuLi), while the strengthening effect of the T-1 precipitates was predominant. The main precipitates were delta'(Al3Li), minor Al-3(Zr,Li) and coarse T-1(Al2CuLi) phases when rolled along the 0 degrees direction, a large amount of fine T-1(Al2CuLi) phase with few delta'(Al3Li) and Al-3(Zr,Li) precipitates by rolling along the 45 degrees direction, besides, a large amount of the Al-3(Zr,Li) phase with minor delta'(Al3Li) in the alloy rolled along the 90 degrees direction. The alloy rolled along the 90 degrees orientation exhibited the appropriate isotropic mechanical behavior, which was caused by the homogeneously distributed dislocations that produced a homogeneous dispersion of the strengthening precipitates in the three tensile angles. In addition, the shielding property showed different screening ratios when varying the rolling direction. The 90 degrees rolling direction presented the most desirable shielding property.
