Investigation on Work Hardening Effect Generated during Dynamic Formation of Al-Based Coating on Magnesium Alloy
Numerical simulation of sequential collision behavior of multi-particles during dynamic formation of Al-based coating on magnesium alloy by supersonic particles deposition demonstrated that continuous tamping effect from subsequent sprayed particles improved significantly compression ratio of former deposited particle and promote effectively deformation and spread out. Analysis to morphology and microstructure of Al-based coating on magnesium alloy by SEM and TEM elicited that subsequent sprayed particles generated two effects including erosion and compaction to former deposited layer of the coating, induced formation of high density dislocation, grains refinement and re-crystallization, which played work-hardening strengthening effect and fine crystal strengthening effect to Al-Si coating.
