A research program was simulated to study the effects of pouring temperature, squeeze pressure and die temperature on the tensile, elongation and hardness properties of AZ91D magnesium alloys using anycasting software. The curves with different processing parameters on mechanical properties have been painted. The results indicated that mechanical properties increased firstly, then decreased when the pouring temperature increased to 670°C, and gradually increased with the increasing of squeeze pressure. The affect laws of mould temperature are similar as ones of pouring temperature. Eventually found that the squeeze casting got better mechanical properties(σb= 225MPa, δ= 3.6%, Vickers hardness=62) on the pouring temperature 670°C, mold temperature 180°C, holding pressure 120Mpa, pressure duration 25s.

Magnesium Alloy Am60

In this study, the hexachloroethane (C2Cl6) as a refiner was introduced into a cylindrical squeeze casting of magnesium alloy AM60 with a diameter of 100 mm and a thickness of 25 mm. The casting was prepared under an applied pressure of 30 MPa. The results of tensile testing indicate the tensile properties for the C2Cl6-refined specimens were significantly improved over the untreated AM60 samples. Microstructure analyses with optical microscopes reveal the great grain refining capability of C2Cl6 on squeeze cast magnesium alloy AM60, which should be responsible for the enhanced tensile properties of the refined AM60.
