Study on Rheocasting-Rolling of Semi-Solid AZ31B Magnesium Alloy

Abstract

Analysis on microstructure of semi-solid AZ31B magnesium alloy produced under different technological parameters were done, hot rolling experiments of AZ31B magnesium alloy semi-solid strips were carried out on the rheocasting-rolling machine which was developed by ourselves. The result shows that the strips after the rheocasting-rolling of AZ31B semi-solid magnesium alloy have good plasticity and rolling properties, this offers theory basis for reprocessing of AZ31B.

Study on Semi-Solid Magnesium Alloys Slurry Preparation and Continuous Roll-Casting Process

“…The CRP experiment of AZ91D and AZ31B (Zhang et al, 2007) was investigated for verifying the numerical simulation model and results of CRP. In addition, the further processability of semi-solid AZ91D and AZ31B strips by hot rolling, cold rolling and punching experiment was studied.…”
