The microstructure evolution and age- strengthening characteristics of an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy thick plate during a two-step ageing treatment at 115 degrees C and 160 degrees C were studied. The results show that the first step ageing treatment contributed to a major increase of tensile strength, the UTS value achieves 569 MPa after ageing for 7 h at 115 degrees C, both the GPI and GPII zones are dominant precipitates under this ageing condition. During the second step ageing at 160 degrees C, the peak strength value is achieved after a short ageing time, and then the strength decreases obviously, the UTS value reaches 493 MPa after ageing for 36 h. The microstructure in the matrix of the alloy at this ageing stage contains mostly metastable eta', phase and stable eta phase. The grain boundary precipitates in two-step aged alloy were coarse and sparsely distributed, and clear precipitation free zone was observed. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
