摘要/Abstract

Abstract:

The influence of Al alloying on the microstructures and the mechanical properties of Mg-xAl-1Sn-0.3Mn alloy sheets was investigated. The microstructure of Mg-xAl-1Sn-0.3Mn consisted of α-Mg and Mg₁₇Al₁₂ precipitates. Alloying with Al increased the amount of Mg₁₇Al₁₂ and the average grain size. Uniaxial tensile tests were carried out along the extrusion direction (ED), the transverse direction (TD) and 45° toward the ED. Mg-5Al-1Sn-0.3Mn alloy sheet exhibited the best combination of mechanical properties along the ED: a yield strength of 142 MPa, an ultimate tensile strength of 282 MPa and an elongation of 23%. The good performance of Mg-5Al-1Sn-0.3Mn sheet was mainly attributed to the large quantity of Mg₁₇Al₁₂ precipitates and a weak basal texture. Annealing caused static dynamic recrystallization, refined the grain size and enhanced the mechanical properties: yield strength of 186 MPa, ultimate tensile strength of 304 MPa, elongation of 21% along ED. Both strength and ductility were enhanced by Al alloying.
