AbstractIn the present work, a novel low-temperature heat-treatable recycled die-cast Al–Mg alloy was developed by adding Zn into non-heat-treatable Al–5Mg–1.5Fe–0.5Mn alloy. The results showed that Zn additions resulted in the formation of equilibrium phase T-Mg32(Al, Zn)49 under as-cast condition, which can be dissolved into the α-Al matrix at a relatively low solution temperature (430 °C) and thus set the base for the low-temperature heat treatment. The mechanical test results indicated that Zn additions had a smooth liner improvement in the strength of all as-cast alloys and T6-state alloys with 1% and 2% Zn as its concentration increased but resulted in a sharp improvement on the strength of T6-state alloy when Zn concentration increased from 2 to 3%. TEM analysis revealed that the precipitate in T6-state Al–5Mg–1.5Fe–0.5Mn–3Zn alloy is η′ phase, rather than the widely reported T″ or T′ phase in other Al–Mg–Zn alloys with approximately same Mg and Zn concentrations. After the optimized low-temperature T6 heat treatment (solution at 430 °C for 60 min and ageing at 120 °C for 16 h), the Al–5Mg–1.5Fe–0.5Mn–3Zn alloy exhibits the yield strength of 321 MPa, ultimate tensile strength of 445 MPa and elongation of 6.2%.

The influences of Zn content and heat treatment on microstructure and corrosion behavior of Mg-xZn (x=1, 3, 5 and 7 wt.%) alloys were studied. (α-Mg + MgZn) eutectic cells and Zn-segregated regions were formed in the as-cast alloys. The Zn-rich phases acted as micro-cathodes in galvanic corrosion. Volume fraction of the Zn-rich phases increased with Zn content of the as-cast alloys, leading to a decrease in corrosion resistance. The corrosion rate of the as-cast alloys increased by 4 times with an increase of the volume fraction of eutectic cell from 0.07 vol.% of Mg-1Zn alloy to 2.18 vol.% of Mg-5Zn alloy. The corrosion rate of Mg-7Zn alloy with 2.87 vol% eutectic cells was 2 times higher than that of Mg-5Zn alloy. The Zn-rich phases dissolved by the T4 treatment and only the T4-treated Mg-7Zn alloy obviously showed eutectic cells of 1.73 vol.%. The polarization resistance (Rp) of the T4-treated Mg-1, 3 and 5Zn alloys was 2-10 times higher than that of the as-cast alloys. The T4-treated Mg-7Zn showed similar Rp to the as-cast Mg-5Zn alloy. Consequently, the volume fraction of Zn-rich phases dominated the corrosion resistance of Mg-xZn alloys.

In this paper there is presented the structure and proprieties of the modeling cast magnesium alloys as cast state and after heat treatment, depending on the cooling medium (furnace, water, air), with different chemical composition. The improvement of the manufacturing technique and chemical composition as well as of heat treatment and cooling methods leads to the development of a material designing process for the optimal physical and mechanical properties of a new developed alloy. In the analysed alloys a structure of solid solution and fragile phase  (Mg17Al12) occurred mainly on grain borders as well as eutectic and AlMnFe, Mg2Si phase. The investigation is carried out to testy the influence of the chemical composition and precipitation processes on the structure and mechanical properties of the magnesium cast alloys with different chemical composition in its as cast alloys and after heat treatment.

In this paper is presented the structure and proprieties of the cast magnesium alloys as cast state and after heat treatment cooled with different cooling rate, depending on the cooling medium (furnace, water, air). For investigations samples in shape of 250x150x25 mm plates were used. The presented results concern X-ray qualitative and quantitative microanalysis as well as qualitative and quantitative X-ray diffraction method, tensile tests, hardness measurement. In the analysed alloys a structure of α %solid solution and fragile phase β (Mg17Al12) occurred mainly on grain borders as well as eutectic and phase AlMnFe, Mg2Si. Investigation are carried out for the reason of chemical composition influence and precipitation processes influence to the structure and mechanical properties of the magnesium cast alloys with different chemical composition in as cast alloys and after heat treatment.
