Microstructures and mechanical properties of in-situ TiB2reinforced Al-xZn-2.5Mg-2.4Cu-0.15Zr composites with different Zn content (i.e. x = 6.9, 9 and 12 wt%) were studied in this work. Detailed microstructural investigations have been carried out via scanning electron microscopy and associated orientation imaging microscopy. The results indicate that as Zn content increased from 6.9 to 12 wt%, the severe clusters of TiB2particles were noticeably dispersed owing to the decreased interfacial energy between TiB2particles and Al matrix. The average grain size of extruded samples decreases and the grain shapes tend to be more equiaxed with the increase of Zn content, thanks to the formation of LAGBs and its transformation to HAGBs surrounding dispersed TiB2particles in the grain. In addition, the yield strength of extruded samples increases from 597 MPa to 707 MPa with the increase of Zn content from 6.9 to 12 wt%, via grain-boundary strengthening mechanism and reinforcing particles strengthening mechanism.
