We compared the newly developed heat resistant magnesium alloy with conventional ones by Thixomolding® and aluminum alloy by die casting. Tensile properties at elevated temperatures of AXEJ6310 were equal to those of ADC12. In particular, elongation tendency of AXEJ6310 at higher temperature was better than those of the other alloys. Creep resistance of AXEJ6310 was larger than that of AE42 by almost 3 orders and smaller than that of ADC12 by almost 2 orders of magnitude. Fatigue limits at room temperature and 423K of AXEJ6310 was superior among conventional magnesium alloys.

Mg alloys show limited room temperature formability compared to its lightweight counterpart aluminium alloys, which is a main obstacle in using this metal for most of the structural applications. However, it is known that grain refinement and texture control are the two possibilities for the improvement of formability of magnesium alloys. Amongst the approaches attempted for the texture weakening, additions through of rare-earth (RE) elements have been found most effective. The relationship between the texture and ductility is well established. In this paper, the effect of rare earth addition on texture weakening has been summarized for various magnesium alloys under the two most common modes of deformation methods.

High-Pressure Torsion (HPT) is widely used to refine the structure of metallic materials through the use of severe plastic deformation. This technique is used in this report to process different magnesium alloys using various processing conditions. The high hydrostatic pressure allows processing of these materials at room temperature without cracking. The structure was characterized and hardness distribution was determined at different areas of the processed samples. The results show significant structure refinement and increased hardness. The evolution of the structure and hardness depends on the alloying and HPT processing conditions.

The magnesium alloys, that have high specific strength, are often applied to the industrial products. However, the magnesium alloys exhibit low ductility at the room temperature on account of its hexagonal close-packed structure. It is difficult to give large deformation to the magnesium alloys at room temperature. Therefore, the plastic forming of a magnesium alloy sheet needs the process at warm temperature. In the present work, the procedure of thermal-mechanical coupled analyses are employed. The numerical simulations of warm deep drawings have been performed in order to evaluate the dependence of the temperature on the plastic forming of a magnesium alloy AZ31 sheet. The mechanical properties of the magnesium alloy AZ31 shall be described as the functions depending on temperature. The shapes of punches and die holes are rectangle whose aspect ratios are 1.5 or 2.0. The corners of punches and dies are heated locally at 473K. The influence of local heating on the formability have been investigated. The relation between the blank size and the formability has been also estimated. As the results of numerical simulations, it was shown that the formability of deep drawing was improved by local heating to the punch and the die. When the blanks of various sizes were tried, the distributions of the plastic strain rate around the die corner were changed. Therefore, the deviation of the plastic flow and the temperature distribution arose in a sheet. Consequently, it is necessary to optimize the blank sizes according to the shape of die holes in addition to the forming temperature.

The influence of temperature, grain size and strain rate on superplasticity of magnesium is investigated. Different approaches are compared along with their experimental results to show the variation in the amount of superplasticity by varying above mentioned parameters. At room temperature magnesium alloys usually have poor formability but recent studies of some alloys such as ZE10, AZ31, AZ61 AZ60, AZ80 and AZ91 are pointing that by varying the temperature along with grain size and strain rate improved formability is possible or even superplastic forming of these alloys can be achieved to meet the demands of automotive, aircraft and other weight conscious industries.

In this paper, the corrosion resistance of two sand-casting creep resistant magnesium alloys Mg-9Al-1.5Ca-0.3Sr and Mg-9Al-2.2Ca-0.8Sr in the salt environment has been investigated. Specimens of each alloy has been immersed in 3.5% NaCl solution at room temperature and successively taken out after 1, 2, 4, 5 and 9 days. After immersion test, the microstructure and the appearances of the corroded structure were examined. The corrosion rates of both investigated alloys increased lineally with increasing the exposure time in both solutions. Mg-9Al-1.5Ca-0.3Sr alloy exhibits the higher corrosion rate during the immersion test than Mg-9Al-2.2Ca-0.8Sr. The corrosion layer of both alloys consists of MgO, MgOH and phases containing Cl, Na, Al and Ca. The increase of Ca content in the Mg-9Al-2.2Ca-0.8Sr alloy improved the corrosion resistance due to the formation of the reticular (Mg,Al)2Ca phase, which acted as an effective barrier against corrosion.

A way to overcome the low deformability of magnesium alloys at room temperature is toincrease the temperature of forming operations. The stress exponent n, which is known to be a keyparameter in the control of plastic stability, generally decreases when temperature increases.Nevertheless, low n-values are not enough to ensure large capacity of deformation since fracturecan also result from strain induced cavitation. In the present investigation, both the mechanisms ofhigh temperature deformation and damage were studied in selected Mg alloys. Since damage datacan also give information on the deformation mechanisms, the strain induce cavitation behaviourwas mainly studied thanks to X-ray micro tomography which provides 3D information like thecavity shapes or the variation with strain of the number of cavities. Moreover, additionally toconventional post mortem analyses, it was attempted to perform the 3D damage characterisation inin situ conditions, namely directly during high temperature deformation tests.
