Effect of ageing on microstructure and mechanical properties of a multi-directionally forged Mg–6Al–1Zn alloy

Microstructure and tensile properties of SiC nanoparticles reinforced magnesium matrix composite prepared by multidirectional forging under decreasing temperature conditions

“…MDF seems to be especially attractive for its potential for scaling up of relatively large samples that can be suitable for industrial applications [17,18]. So far, most investigations have been conducted to understand the effect of MDF on the microstructure and properties of pure metals or metallic alloys [17][18][19][20][21][22]. Our previous work has investigated the microstructure and mechanical properties of micron-SiCp/AZ91 magnesium matrix composite as well as nano-SiCp/AZ91 magnesium matrix composite processed by MDF under constant temperature [23][24][25] temperature conditions on microstructure and mechanical properties of nanoparticles reinforced magnesium matrix composite.…”

Thermal fatigue behavior of Mg–9Al–Zn alloy with biomimetic strengthening units processed by laser surface remelting

“…As compared with α-Mg, β-Mg 17 Al 12 is brittle and is a detrimental constituent to some properties. Due to existence of β-Mg 17 Al 12 , stress concentration occurs at the sharp corners of the irregular shapes, leading to early stage mechanical failure [26] and decrease in the ductility. However, the brittle β-Mg 17 Al 12 could improve microhardness as the sole hard phase in the Mg-Al binary system [25].…”

Tribological and mechanical investigation of multi-directional forged nickel

“…on multi-directionally forged AZ61 magnesium alloy after five passes led to an excellent balance of strength and ductility at the ambient temperature 24 . Additionally, several experiments have been performed on the MDF process of pure aluminum and Al-4wt.% magnesium alloy 25 , Mg-6Al-1Zn alloy 26 , AZ31B magnesium alloy 27 , 2A14 aluminum alloy 28 , and Mg-Gd-Y-Ag-Zr alloy 29 .…”
