Microstructures and mechanical properties of as-extruded and heat treated Mg-6Zn-1Mn-4Sn-1.5Nd alloy

The microstructures and mechanical properties of Mg-6Zn-1Mn-4Sn-1.5Nd alloy subjected to extrusion and T5 treatment were investigated using optical microscopy（OM）, X-ray diffractometer（XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, electron back scattered diffraction（EBSD）, transmission electron microscopy（TEM）, hardness tests and uniaxial tensile tests. The results showed that the as-cast alloy consisted of α（Mg）, Mn, Mg7Zn3, Mg2 Sn and Mg Sn Nd phases. Dynamic recrystallization has completed during the extrusion process and the average grain size was 7.2 μm. After T5 treatment, the strength increased obviously, the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of as-extruded alloy were increased by 94 and 34 MPa, respectively. Microstructure characterization revealed that the improvement of strength was determined by the high number density of β′1 rods.

挤压温度对Mg-6Zn-1Mn-4Sn-0.5Y镁合金组织和性能的影响（英文）

通过光学显微镜(OM),X射线衍射(XRD),扫描电子显微镜(SEM),电子背散射衍射(EBSD)以及拉伸试验对360和420℃挤压的Mg-6Zn-1Mn-4Sn-0.5Y变形镁合金的组织和性能进行了研究。结果表明,合金铸态和时效态的相组成为α-Mg,Mn,Mg_7Zn_3,Mg_2Sn,和MgSnY相。挤压温度从360℃增加到420℃,动态再结晶完成,晶粒长大,合金的屈服强度、抗拉强度以及延伸率分别由259 MPa,350 MPa和18.3%降低至239 MPa,332 MPa和12.5%。理论计算和拉伸试验结果表明,细晶强化和固溶强化对合金屈服强度的增加产生决定性影响。
