The results showed that the optimum solution treatment process for the alloy was 470 ℃, 2 h. The tensile strength, yield strength,and elongation of the samples after the aging treatment at 120℃ for 24 h were 486 MPa, 431 MPa, and 14.8%,respectively. The alloy produced more copious recrystallization with the augment of solution temperature and the extension of holding time. While the second phase of η(MgZn_(2)), and T(AlZnMgCu) in the matrix was not fully re-dissolved under the treatment condition of lower temperature or shorter holding time. Interestingly, the Zr aggregation was observed in the samples treated at 510 ℃ for 2 h, which led to the growth of the second phase particles and the increase of their area fraction.展开更多
