Ultrafine grain structure features in spray-formed AZ31 magnesium alloy
Highlights Spray forming of Mg alloy was carried out with different delivery tube orifice. ∅2.25mm delivery tube orifice promoted the formation of ultrafine grains. A significant refinement of grain size ∼1μm in ultrafine level was achieved. The enhancement in mechanical strength of spray-formed Mg alloy was observed. The fracture surface evidences mixed ductile and brittle fracture.
Abstract The ultrafine grain structure was developed in spray-formed AZ31 magnesium alloy by optimizing delivery tube orifice diameter. A significant refinement of grain size ∼1μm in ultrafine level was achieved by using 2.25mm delivery tube orifice diameter. The tensile strength value was increased from 145MPa of as-cast alloy to 250MPa of spray-formed alloy, registering an enhancement of ∼72%. On the other hand, elongation was increased from 6% to 13% using 2.25mm orifice, registering more than onefold increase in elongation. Also, hardness enhancement of ∼49% was observed in spray-formed AZ31 alloy compared to as-cast alloy. The fracture surface of spray-formed AZ31Mg alloy evidences the mixed type of ductile and brittle fracture.
