In this study, Al–10.8Zn–2.8Mg–1.9Cu alloy was synthesized by the spray atomization and deposition technique. The structural characteristics of spray-deposited alloy and their development during subsequent hot extrusion and heat treatment were investigated by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and X-ray diffraction. The results indicate that the microstructure of the alloy mainly is composed of the Al matrix, the Mg(ZnCu)2compounds with various shape. The fragmentation of the Mg(ZnCu)2phases in the alloy has been regarded as one of the main feature during extrusion. After solution treating, the microstructure is found to be composed of the Al matrix and a spot of Al7Cu2Fe particles. The GP zones and/or the metastable η’ phase from the matrix are major precipitates for the alloy under peak-aged condition (16h at 120°C).
