The influence of the ECAP temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of a magnesium alloy
The influence of the equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) temperature (150-350 degrees C) on microstructure of the AM60 magnesium alloy has been investigated using transmission electron microscopy. It was demonstrated that application of various ECAP regimes leads to significant difference in a grain size and volume fraction of precipitates in investigated material. Thermal stability of precipitates and correlation between microstructure and tensile strength are discussed.
