Electropulsing Treatment

Thermo-electropulsing rolling (TER) process, which combined the electropulsing treatment with the conventional warm rolling process (WR), was applied to manufacture AZ31 magnesium alloy strips in the current study. Influences of TER process and WR process on microstructure and mechanical properties of AZ31 Mg alloy were studied. TER process was found to induce and accelerate the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior of the samples at a relatively low temperature within a short time. Besides, TER process could obtain samples with better mechanical properties than that of WR process.

Softening Behavior

Due to the deformation mechanisms and the typical basal texture rolled magnesium sheets show a significant asymmetry of flow stress in tension and compression. In order to avoid this undesired behavior it is necessary to achieve non-basal texture during rolling, or at least, to reduce the intensity of the basal texture component. The reduction of the anisotropy caused by the basal texture is very important for subsequent forming processes. This project aims at optimizing the hot rolling process with special consideration of texture effects. The development of the model is carried out in close cooperation with the experimental work on magnesium alloy AZ31 .The experimental results are required for the determination of model parameters and for the verification of the model. Deformation-induced texture is described by the visco-plastic self-consistent (VPSC) model of Lebensohn and Tomé. The combination of deformation and recrystallization texture models is applied to hot compression tests on AZ31, and it is found, that the model describes the observed texture and hardening/softening behavior well. In some cases rotation recrystallization occurs in AZ31 which appears to be a possibility to reduce the undesired basal rolling texture.

Lubrication Properties

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to synthesize a microemulsion and investigate its tribological properties as lubricant. Magnesium alloy warm rolling experiments were conducted. Surface morphology was observed and wear form was summarized. The composition of surface residues was analyzed, which sheds light on the lubrication mechanism of microemulsion. Design/methodology/approach A microemulsion was prepared with a proper amount of oil, surfactant, cosurfactant, water and other additives for magnesium alloy strip warm rolling. Tribological properties, such as maximum non-seizure load (PB), friction coefficient (μ) and wear scar diameter (D) of the microemulsion were measured and compared with those of emulsion and rolling oil on an MR-10A four-ball tribotester. The extreme pressure anti-wear coefficients (O) were calculated and compared. Warm rolling experiments were carried out on a Ф 170/400 × 300 mm four-high rolling mill at 240°C to compare the finish rolling thickness and surface quality of rolled AZ31B magnesium alloy strip under four lubrication states, namely, no lubrication, rolling oil, microemulsion and emulsion. The surface morphology after warm rolling was observed with confocal laser scanning microscope and scanning electron microscope, respectively. The composition of surface residues was analyzed with energy dispersive spectrometry and X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Findings Surface morphology indicated that pitting wear, adhesive wear and ploughing wear were three main forms of wear in magnesium alloy warm rolling. Microemulsion had excellent lubrication properties with less residual oil remaining. Two types of adsorption layers formed on magnesium alloy strip surface were responsible for lubrication properties. MgSO4 and magnesium stearate in the reaction layer played a key role in anti-wear and friction-reduction in warm rolling. Originality/value The study is original and gives valuable information on lubrication mechanism of microemulsion in warm rolling of magnesium alloy strips.

Emulsifier Concentration

The formulation design and fundamental experiments of O/W type emulsions as lubricant and coolant in the hot rolling process of magnesium alloy were conducted in this work. The main components of emulsion were determined by the comparision of some candidates of base oil, polar oil additive and emulsifier in microstructure and properties, respectively. It is found that the conservation stability of emulsions is mainly dominated by the emulsifier concentration and type. The results showed that the suitable stability and microstructure was obtained by using compound emulsifier of nonionic and anionic surfactants. The feasible contents of both emulsifier and polar agents are about 10 percent, respectively.
