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.

In this study, the effect of Sn addition on corrosion resistance of as-cast and hot rolled AZ31 magnesium alloy was investigated. Sn additions were made by 0.2 wt%, 0.5 wt% and 1 wt%. An electric resistance furnace was used to produce alloys. Hot rolling process was performed at 350 °C by 40% thickness reduction at one rolling pass. Microstructure characterizations were performed by optical (OM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Immersion tests and electrochemical analyses were performed to investigate the corrosion resistance of the alloys. A 3.5% NaCl working solution at room temperature was used in both corrosion tests. The results showed that Sn addition decreased the primary dentrite size and restricted the growth of secondary dentritic arm. The as-cast structures transformed to dynamically recrystallized grain structures after hot-rolling process in all the alloys. Corrosion resistance of AZ31 magnesium alloy tended to decrease with Sn addition. This decrease was more clear in homogenized and hot-rolled states while there were some flactuations in as-cast states.

The effect of ferritic hot rolling process on microstructure and properties of Ti microalloyed IF steel was investigated. The hot rolling-coiling, cold rolling and continuous annealing processes of ferritic zone were physically simulated. The influence of thermal deformation (finishing rolling temperature, coiling temperature) on the structure, texture and forming properties of Ti-If steel was studied through tensile test, EBSD, XRD and other analytical methods. The results showed that the recrystallization occurred after hot rolling and coiling in the ferritic region. Weak α-fiber and weak γ-fiber were obtained in the central layer of hot rolling plates, and the strength of γ-fiber was higher when finished rolling at low temperature. α-fiber and weak γ-fiber were strengthened after cold rolling. After annealing, the α-fiber was weakened and the γ-fiber was strengthened, and the γ-fiber became the main texture. The larger and more uniform grain size and better mechanical properties were obtained by IF steel finished rolling and coiling at high temperature and after continuous annealing, reaching yield strength of 106 MPa, tensile strength of 297 MPa, elongation rate of 52%, n value of 0.26 and r value of 2.3. The hot rolling texture is hereditary. If the more γ-fiber is formed after hot rolling, the more γ-fiber recrystallization texture is formed after cold rolling and annealing.

Computational simulation has become more important in the design of thermomechanical processing since it allows the optimization of associated parameters such as temperature, stresses, strains and phase transformations. This work presents the results of the three-dimensional Finite Element Method (FEM) simulation of the hot rolling process of a medium Mn steel using DEFORM-3D software. Temperature and effective strain distribution in the surface and center of the sheet were analyzed for different rolling passes; also the change in damage factor was evaluated. According to the hot rolling simulation results, experimental hot rolling parameters were established in order to obtain the desired microstructure avoiding the presence of ferrite precipitation during the process. The microstructural characterization of the hot rolled steel was carried out using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). It was found that the phases present in the steel after hot rolling are austenite and α′-martensite. Additionally, to understand the mechanical behavior, tensile tests were performed and concluded that this new steel can be catalogued in the third automotive generation.

The paper presents a model of microstructure changes elaborated for magnesium alloy type AZ31. In previous papers, the function of flow stress was defined on the basis of uniaxial hot compression tests. On the basis of marked relaxation curves and quantitative tests of structure the softening indicators were defined together with elaboration of equations which describe the changes in the grain size. Marked coefficients of equations were introduced in the code of simulation program. Calculations were conducted for given temperature values from 450 ÷ 250°C and strain rate from 0.01 to 10 s-1, which correspond with rolling temperature range of this alloy. Prepared model will allow the proper choice of parameters in hot rolling process of this alloy to achieve the assumed microstructure.
