The object of this study was to develop parameters of plastic deformation in hot direct extrusion and die forging process of magnesium alloy MgAlZn. Extrusion process was conducted in the temperature range 350°C÷450°C at different extrusion speeds (ram speed 0.5 mm/s÷3 mm/s). The extrusion tests have showed that for this alloy it is possible to use the temperature of the extruded material ranging from 350°C÷450°C when the process is run at the optimum ram speed. Higher temperature of extrusion is beneficial For higher ram speed of 3mm/s, in this alloy at a temperature of 420÷450°C, cracks began to show in the surface. The same problem were for die forging. Extruded rods and forging parts were characterized by mechanical properties and structure in different heat treatment tempers. This magnesium alloy obtained in the T5 temper higher mechanical properties then T6 temper. The paper also presents research results of investigation of conversion coating on MgAlZn magnesium alloy by anodic oxidation method in non-chromium solutions. It was found that the coating produced in non-chromium solutions show considerable increase of corrosion resistance of tested alloy.Keywords: Mg alloys, extrusion, mechanical properties, structure, corrosion resistance.

Homogenized magnesium alloy Mg-6Zn-Si-0.25Ca has been hot-extruded and then aging treated for improving the magnesium alloy plastic deformation ability and promoting applications of magnesium alloys. In the hot extrusion process, the influences of extrusion parameters for microstructures and mechanical properties of Mg-6Zn-Si-0.25Ca magnesium alloy were investigated. The results show that dynamic recrystallization occurred during hot extrusion. Compared with as-cast alloy, the grains are fined remarkably, and the mechanical properties are enhanced obviously. Twin crystals appeared in grains after hot extrusion, with the extrusion temperature rising, twin crystal structures has been reduced. Aging further increased the mechanical properties of the estruded alloy. The ultimate tensile strength of Mg-6Zn-Si-0.25Ca alloy is about 385 MPa and the elongation is about 11% when extruded at 320°C(extrusion ratio is 10) and aged at 190°C for 8h.

Zk60 Magnesium Alloy

The effects of extrusion ratios (15, 30, 45and 60) on microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 magnesium alloy after T5 treatment were investigated. The results show that mechanical properties increase with the increase of extrusion ratios from 15 to 45．However, when the extrusion ratio is increase to 60, each mechanical property is decreased severly．By comparison，in the extrusion ratio of 30, ZK60 magnesium alloy after T5 treatment has excellent comprehensive mechanical properties．Different degrees of dynamic recrystallization appeared in the extrusion process and induced precipitation of second phase．The precipitation of the second phase is beneficial to the grain refinement and meanwhile to the promotion of the strength．

The effects of Sr addition on the mechanical properties and microstructure of Mg-6Al mag- nesium alloy both at 25 °C and at 175 °C were investigated by means of OM, SEM and EDS and XRD. Upon the Sr addition of 2%, the tensile strength was increased by 7.2% to 184.4MPa at 25 °C, while it was increased by 30% to 155.4MPa at 175 °C. The strengthening mechanism of Mg-6Al-xSr at lower temperature (25 °C) was different from that at higher temperature (175°C). The results show that the addition of strontium effectively improved the microstructure and mechanical properties of magnesium alloy.

Az61 Magnesium Alloy

Abstract Compound extrusion (CE) is a newly developed plastic deformation technique which combines direct extrusion (DE) with a two-pass equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE). This paper focuses on the strength, ductility and anti-corrosion properties of an NaCl solution at certain concentrations and the wear-resistance of dry sliding AZ61 magnesium alloy prepared by CE and DE. It is found that the strength and elongation of the AZ61 alloy prepared by CE are enhanced because of grain refinement. Furthermore, AZ61 magnesium alloy made by CE displays higher corrosion and wear resistance than that prepared by DE. Experimental results prove that CE is a prospective manufacturing method for improving the mechanical properties, anti-corrosion and anti-wear of AZ61 magnesium alloy.
