This comprehensive study investigates the micro-milling of a Mg13Sn alloy, a material of considerable interest in various high-precision applications, such as biomedical implants. The main objective of the study was to explore the optimizations of variable feed per tooth (fz), cutting speed (Vc), and depth of cut (ap) parameters on the key outcomes of the micro-milling process. A unique experimental setup was employed, employing a spindle capable of achieving up to 60,000 revolutions per minute. Additionally, the study leveraged linear slides backed by micro-step motors to facilitate precise axis movements, thereby maintaining a resolution accuracy of 0.1 μm. Cutting forces were accurately captured by a mini dynamometer and subsequently evaluated based on the peak to valley values for Fx (tangential force) and Fy (feed force). The study results revealed a clear and complex interplay between the varied cutting parameters and their subsequent impacts on the cutting forces and surface roughness. An increase in feed rate and depth of cut significantly increased the cutting forces. However, the cutting forces were found to decrease noticeably with the elevation of cutting speed. Intriguingly, the tangential force (Fx) was consistently higher than the feed force (Fy). Simultaneously, the study determined that the surface roughness, denoted by Sa values, increased in direct proportion to the feed rate. It was also found that the Sa surface roughness values decreased with the increase in cutting speed. This study recommends a parameter combination of fz = 5 µm/tooth feed rate, Vc = 62.8 m/min cutting speed, and ap = 400 µm depth of cut to maintain a Sa surface roughness value of less than 1 µm while ensuring an optimal material removal rate and machining time. The results derived from this study offer vital insights into the micro-milling of Mg13Sn alloys and contribute to the current body of knowledge on the topic.

“…Bi, Sn, and Pb were reported to intensify hydrogen release accompanying the corrosion of Mg alloys owing to the formation of intermetallic phases Mg 3 Bi 2 , Mg 2 Sn, and Mg 2 Pb. With their respective corrosion potentials of −1463, −1498 and −1002 mV (measured in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution), those compounds are ‘cathodic’ to the Mg phase (−1669 mV) [ 95 , 96 , 97 ]. In recent years, prices for bismuth have decreased considerably [ 98 ], while tin and lead are known as available and inexpensive materials.…”

In the present study, composite materials were elaborated of mixed scrap of Mg-based casting alloys and low melting point Bi–Sn–Pb alloy by high energy ball milling, and their reactivity in NaCl solution with hydrogen release was tested. The impacts of the additive content and ball milling duration on their microstructure and hydrogen generation performance were investigated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed significant microstructural transformations of the particles during milling, and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) proved the formation of new intermetallic phases Mg3Bi2, Mg2Sn, and Mg2Pb. The said intermetallic phases were anticipated to act as ‘microcathodes’ enhancing galvanic corrosion of the base metal. The dependency of the samples’ reactivity on the additive content and milling duration was determined to be nonmonotonic. For the samples with 0, 2.5, and 5 wt.% Rose alloy, ball-milling during 1 h provided the highest hydrogen generation rates and yields (as compared to 0.5 and 2 h), while in the case of the maximum 10 wt.%, the optimal time shifted to 0.5 h. The sample activated with 10 wt.% Rose alloy for 0.5 h provided the highest ‘metal-to-hydrogen’ yield and rapid reaction, thus overperforming those with lower additive contents and that without additives.

In this investigation, composite materials were manufactured of mixed scrap of Mg-based alloys and low melting point Sn–Pb eutectic by high energy ball milling, and their hydrogen generation performance was tested in NaCl solution. The effects of the ball milling duration and additive content on their microstructure and reactivity were investigated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis indicated notable structural transformations of the particles during ball milling, and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) proved the formation of new intermetallic phases Mg2Sn and Mg2Pb, which were aimed to augment galvanic corrosion of the base metal. The dependency of the material’s reactivity on the activation time and additive content occurred to be non-monotonic. For all tested samples ball milling during the 1 h provided, the highest hydrogen generation rates and yields as compared to 0.5 and 2 h and compositions with 5 wt.% of the Sn–Pb alloy, demonstrated higher reactivity than those with 0, 2.5, and 10 wt.%.
