Abstract

The invention relates to a method for strengthening a VW93M magnesium alloy through atomic segregation and atomic clusters. The magnesium alloy comprises, by mass, Mg, 8.0-9.6% of Gd, 1.8-3.2% of Y, 0.3-0.7% of Zr, 0.02-0.5% of Ag, 0.02-0.3% of Er. The method comprises the steps of conducting rotary forging deformation on a VW93M magnesium alloy bar, controlling the initial rotary forging temperature to be 100-300 DEG C and the total deformation to be 10-80%, conducting oil lubrication in the rotary forging process, controlling the flow velocity of a lubricating agent to be 0.5-1.5 m3 / h and the feeding speed to be 3-6 mm / min, changing the feeding direction after each pass of deformation, wherein the concentration of Gd and Y elements of the grain boundary is 2-2.5 times greater than that of intragranular Gd and Y elements, the size of atomic clusters is 5-15 nm, and the obtained magnesium alloy has the yield strength greater than or equal to 530 MPa, the tensile strength greater than or equal to 610 MPa and the percentage elongation after fraction greater than or equal to 5%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of high-performance magnesium alloy processing, in particular to a magnesium alloy strengthening method. Background technique [0002] Magnesium alloy has the advantages of low density, high specific strength, high specific stiffness, and high damping. As a new generation of lightweight structural materials, its excellent weight reduction characteristics are of great significance to aerospace, transportation and other fields. However, the existing magnesium alloys generally have low strength, which makes it difficult to meet the demand for high-performance magnesium alloys in the high-precision field. The existing magnesium alloy strengthening methods include solid solution strengthening, fine grain strengthening, second phase strengthening and dispersion strengthening, but it is difficult to increase the strength of magnesium alloy to 600MPa by the existing magnesium alloy strengthening methods. Therefore, exploring...
