The microstructure of AZ91D and alloying AZ91D is different. Except dominant primary α(Mg) and β-Mg 17Al 12 in AZ91D, a new phase Al 11MM3 is observed in alloyed AZ91D. Increasing Ce-rich MM, primary α grains can be refined, the content and grain size of β obviously decrease, furthermore, its morphology degrades from discontinuous network to separated particles, and Al 11MM3 amount substantially increases and acicular Al 11MM3 aggregates into clusters at grain boundaries. In EMS process, α morphology evolves from rosette to sphere, and then spherical-like with the decrease of isothermal stirring temperature. Moreover, Al 11MM3 mainly distributes inside primary grains and eutecticum in form of short-rod. EMS can alter not only the primary morphology but Al 11MM3.展开更多

The flow stress, constitutive relation, DRX kinetic model, processing map and microstructure characterization of the alloys were investigated. The results show that the flow stress is very sensitive to deformation temperature and strain rate, and the peak stress of AZ110 LC(LC = La-rich MM) alloy is higher than that of AZ110 alloy.The hot deformation behavior of the alloys can be accurately predicted by the constitutive relations. The derived constitutive equations show that the calculated activation energy Q and stress exponent n for AZ110 alloy are higher than the calculated values of AZ110 LC alloy. The analysis of DRX kinetic models show that the development of DRX in AZ110 LC alloy is earlier than AZ110 alloy at the same deformation condition. The processing maps show that the workability of AZ110 LC alloy is significantly more excellent than AZ110 alloy and the microstructures are in good agreement with the calculated results.The AZ110 LC alloys can obtain complete DRX microstructure at high strain rate due to its higher stored energy and weak basal texture.展开更多
