Abstract:ZK60 magnesium alloy was prepared by the hot-pressed sintering combined with the hot-extruded technique. The microstructure and mechanical properties evolution of ZK60 alloy with a reduced extrusion temperature from 350 °C to 250 °C were investigated in detailed. The extruded alloy was mainly composed of fine α-Mg grains and MgZn2 phase. The grains size gradually decreased with a reduction in extrusion temperature, and the yield strength obviously increased accordingly. The alloy extruded at 250 °C exhibited t… Show more
