The primary bjective of this experimental study is to obtain insights into the microstructural properties of an Al-Zn alloy that has been strengthened with copper. This investigation involved the preparation of an alloy including aluminum and zinc, which was afterward reinforced with varying quantities (0%, 0.4%, 1.2%, and 2%) of copper. In addition to conducting XRD tests to investigate the crystallite structure, particle size, and microscopic strain of the samples using the Scherrer and Williamson-Hall models, structural examinations were carried out using the EDS test to ascertain the elemental composition proportions. It was observed that the alloy (A-Zn-0.4%Cu) has smaller particle sizes than the other alloys under consideration.
