A novel microalloyed Mg–3Al–0.5Mn–0.5Sr (AMJ300) alloy was designed and prepared. Then the original structure of as-cast alloy was optimized by hot extrusion. The influence of extrusion on microstructure, corrosion and tensile properties of as-cast AMJ300 alloy were studied by OM, SEM, EDS, XRD, TEM, electrochemical workstation and tensile tests. The results indicated that α-Mg, Al8Mn5 and Al4Sr phases constitute the AMJ300 alloy. Furthermore, the microstructure of alloy was further refined after extrusion, which indicates that the microstructural evolution during extrusion was governed by dynamic recrystallization. The fine and close of structure and the morphology change of intermetallic compounds greatly improved the corrosion resistance of AMJ300 alloy. The results of corrosion rate, corrosion current and corrosion morphology showed that the corrosion resistance of as-cast alloy could be significantly improved by extrusion. The main corrosion products of AMJ300 alloy in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution was Mg(OH)2. After extrusion, the tensile properties of AMJ300 alloy was significantly improved. The tensile strength reached 349 MPa, the yield strength reached 229 MPa, and the elongation reached 13.2%. Compared with the as-cast alloy, the tensile strength, the yield strength and the elongation increased by 218.1%, 248.9% and 173.7% respectively

Abstract Alloy Steel 1.8 Cu-1.0 Mn-1.2 Si is a low-carbon (0.20% max.) cast steel designed to provide intermediate tensile and yield strength. Copper lowers the ductility and toughness of cast steel but, for a given increase in tensile strength, the loss of ductility and toughness is less if copper is added than if carbon is increased. This steel has many uses such as booms, long shafting and gears. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as casting, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: SA-325. Producer or source: Alloy steel mills and foundries.

The paper presents the results of tests on the corrosion resistance of Fe40Al5Cr0.2TiB alloy after casting, plastic working using extrusion and rolling methods. Examination of the microstructure of the Fe40Al5Cr0.2TiB alloy after casting and after plastic working was performed on an Olympus GX51 light microscope. The stereological relationships of the alloy microstructure in the state after crystallization and after plastic working were determined. The quantitative analysis of the structure was conducted after testing with the EBSD INCA HKL detector and the Nordlys II analysis system (Channel 5), which was equipped with the Hitachi S-3400N microscope. Structure tests and corrosion tests were performed on tests cut perpendicular to the ingot axis, extrusion direction, and rolling direction. As a result of the tests, it was found that the crystallized alloy has better corrosion resistance than plastically processed material. Plastic working increases the intensity of the electrochemical corrosion of the examined alloy. It was found that as-cast alloy is the most resistant to corrosion in a 5% NaCl compared with the alloys after hot extrusion and after hot rolling. The parameters in this study show the smallest value of the corrosion current density and corrosion rate as well as the more positive value of corrosion potential.

Mg-3Al-1Zn (AZ31) alloy was caliber rolled at 250, 300, 350, 400 and 450 °C. The effects of caliber rolling temperature on the microstructure and tensile properties were investigated. The room temperature tensile tests were carried out to failure at a strain rate of 1 x 10-4s-1. The nature of stress-strain curves obtained was found to vary with the temperature employed in caliber rolling. The yield strength and tensile strength followed a sinusoidal behaviour with increasing caliber rolling temperature but no such trend was noted in ductility. These variations in tensile properties were explained by the varying grain sizes obtained as a function of caliber rolling temperature.

The previous study conducted on the as-cast Mg-2Y-1Zn-0.6Zr alloy showed that the tensile strength, yield strength and elongation of the as-cast alloy were 245 MPa, 135 MPa and 14.4%, respectively. In order to further explore the potential of the material, the hot extrusion process of variable temperature (250 °C, 300 °C and 350 °C) was carried out on the basis of the as-cast alloy. After hot extrusion, the mechanical properties of the material have been greatly improved compared with as-cast alloy. The tensile strength, yield strength and elongation of the extruded alloy reached 327 MPa, 322 MPa and 24.9%, respectively. The reason for the significant improvement of material properties is mainly due to the dynamic recrystallization during thermal processing, which greatly fines the grains of as-cast alloy. Moreover, the experimental results shown that the corrosion performance of the alloy after hot extrusion at 300 °C is also optimal.

The microstructures and mechanical properties of the Cu-17Ni-3Al-X alloy extruded at different temperatures were investigated by hardness and tensile tests, optical microscope and scanning electronic microscope. The experimental results showed that dynamic re-crystallization occured during the hot extrusion at 1000 . The grain size of the extruded alloy was significantly refined and the mechanical properties increased remarkably compared to the as-cast alloy. The alloy extruded at 1075 exhibited good mechanical properties with tensile strength of 994 MPa, Brinell hardness of 296 and elongation of 8.0%, which are 30%, 9% and 285% higher than that of the as-cast alloy.
