Effect of Mg-Zn-Nd spherical quasicrystals on microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 alloy

To improve the strength, toughness, heat-resistance and deformability of magnesium alloy, the microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 alloy strengthened by Mg-Zn-Nd spherical quasi-crystal phase (I-phase) particles were investigated. Mg40Zn55Nd5 (I-phase) particles in addition to α-Mg, MgZn phase and MgZn2 phases can be obtained in ZK60-based composites under normal casting condition by the addition of quasi-crystal containing Mg-Zn-Nd master alloy. The experimental results show that the introduction of Mg-Zn-Nd spherical quasi-crystal phase into ZK60 alloy makes a great contribution to the refinement of the matrix microstructures and the improvement of mechanical properties. While adding Mg-Zn-Nd spherical quasi-crystal master alloy of 4.0wt.%, the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of ZK60-based composite at ambient temperature reach their peak values of 256.7 MPa and 150.4 MPa, which were about 17.8% and 24.1% higher respectively than those of the ZK60 alloy. The improved mechanical properties are mainly attributed to the pinning effect of the quasi-crystal particles (I-phase) at the grain boundaries. This research results provide a new way for strengthening and toughening of magnesium alloys as well as a new application of Mg-based spherical quasi-crystals.

The effects of rare earth（RE） elements Y and Nd （w（Y）/w（Nd）=3：2） with total content of 1%-4% on microstructures and elevated temperature mechanical properties of AZ81 magnesium alloy were investigated. The results show that, proper content of rare earth elements makes the microstructures of AZ81 magnesium alloy refine obviously and the quantity offl-MglTAll2 phases reduce, and Al2Y and Al2Nd form. After solid solution treatment, with increasing content of rare earth elements, the tensile strength and elongation of the alloys （at room temperature, 150 ℃ and 250 ℃） increase first, then decrease. When the content of rare earth elements is up to 2%, the values of tensile strength at room temperature and 150 ℃ are up to their maxima simultaneously, 282 MPa and 212 MPa, respectively. Meanwhile, the values of elongation at room temperature and at elevated temperature are also up to their maxima, 13% and 15%, respectively.     

Effects of aging on the microstructures and mechanical properties of extruded AM50 ＋ xCa magnesium alloys

The effects of aging treatment on the microstructures and mechanical properties of extruded AM50 ＋ xCa alloys （x=0, 1, 2 wt.%） were studied. The results indicated the secondary phase Mgl7Al12 precipitated from the saturated α-Mg solid solution while Al2Ca changed slightly when the aging time was increased. The hardness of extruded AM50 ＋ xCa al- loys increased initially to its peak, and then dropped to reach its original hardness with the increase in aging time. With the increase in aging temperature, the hardness of the AM50 ＋ 2Ca ahoy decreased, whereas the hardness of AM50 and AM50 ＋ 1Ca alloys decreased in the initial stages of aging treatment and increased in the later stages of aging treatment. The tensile strengths of AM50 and AM50 ＋ 1Ca alloys increased after aging treatment for the precipitation of Mg17Al12 phase, which increases the resistance against dislocation movement at the grain boundary; with increase in aging temperature, their tensile strengths increased. For AM50 ＋ 2Ca alloy, the tensile strength declined after aging at 150℃ and 175℃, while it increased slightly at 200℃. The ductility of AM50 ＋ xCa alloys （x = 0, 1, 2 wt.%） declined after aging treatment.     

Influence of impurities on microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 magnesium alloy

The influence of impurity content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 magnesium alloys was investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and tensile test. ZK60 alloys were prepared by changing holding time of alloy melt during semi-continuous casting in order to control the content of impurity elements. The alloy with lower purity content is found to have less second precipitates and larger grain size in the as-cast state. However, in the as-extruded state, reducing impurities brings about a decrease in grain size and an increase in yield strength from 244 MPa to 268 MPa, while the elongations in the as-extruded alloys with different contents of impurities are almost the same. After T5 treatment, impurity content is found to have more obvious effect on the yield strength of ZK60 alloy. The yield strength of ZK60-45 alloys with low impurity content is increased up to 295 MPa after T5 treatment.
