...hardening is assumedly the result of an increase in the diffusion rate with increase in temperature. Is it not conceivable that pressure's decelerating effect on aging comes about through interference with the diffusion process? High hydrostatic pressures, as we know, compress the metal lattice, in this case, the solvent metal lattice; conceivably the 'viscosity' of, and the difficulty of atomic movement within, the solid solution is proportionately increased, Diffusion then becomes slower and the progress of age-hardening retarded...
