Intensive melt shearing is a process that can be used for mixing ceramic particles into magnesium melt. It applies shear stress to the melt and can de-agglomerate nanoparticle additions to magnesium melts without the use of electromagnetic fields or ultrasound. A wrought magnesium alloy AM30 was selected for processing with intensive melt shearing and subsequent twin-roll casting. AM30 with additions of CaO and SiC were also processed by this route and the hardness and microstructure were investigated. Sheets were rolled and their tensile strength was determined. The work was done as part of the European Union research project ExoMet. Its target includes the production of high-performance magnesium-based materials by exploring novel grain refinement and nanoparticle addition in conjunction with melt treatment by means of external fields.

The process of twin-roll casting including pouring, solidifying, rolling and cooling can be accomplished in a very short time. Consequently, some important process parameters in the twin-roll casting that are difficult to be obtained in experiment can be acquired using numerical simulation. In this paper, a numerical simulation based on a 2D finite element model of vertical twin-roll strip casting of magnesium alloy has been conducted, and the thermal stress fields are significantly discussed. The influences of key process parameters consisting of submerged nozzle depth and nozzle spray angle have been studied. The thermal cracks on the surface of the strip are analysed according to the thermal stress distribution.

In this paper, the deformation properties of AZ31+Sr+Y magnesium alloy sheets produced by twin-roll casting (TRC) and sequential hot rolling were studied by the tensile testing at a strain rate of 7×10-4s-1and various temperatures: room temperature (RT), 200°C, 300°C and 400°C, respectively. The result shows that the microstructure of AZ31+Sr+Y alloy was refined obviously by adding elements Sr and Y, the elongation of the alloy increased with increasing temperature, and the fracture behavior of the alloy changed from brittle fracture to ductile fracture with increasing temperature. During the process of plastic deformation of AZ31+Sr+Y alloy, the twin plays a leading role at room temperature; the dislocation movement is regarded as the main deformation mechanism at 200° C; at the higher temperature (above 300°C) the grain boundary slip (GBS) plays a dominant role .
