Embodiment 1

[0031] Step 1: Alloy Melting

[0032] Commercially purchased pure magnesium (purity 99.9%) was directly used for subsequent heat treatment without smelting.

[0033] The second step: solution treatment

[0034] Put pure magnesium into a box-type resistance furnace with a temperature of 500°C, keep it warm for 30 minutes, then take it out and put it in water for rapid cooling.

[0035] The third step: severe plastic deformation treatment

[0036] Process pure magnesium into sheet samples with a diameter of 30mm and a thickness of 0.80-0.85mm, put them between the upper and lower chucks of a high-pressure torsion machine, and perform high-pressure torsion treatment at room temperature. During the high-pressure torsion process, the pressure applied to the sample is 2GPa, the torsion speed is 0.2r / min, and the number of torsion circles is 5. Through high-pressure torsion treatment, an ultra-fine grain structure with an average grain size of 0.5 μm was obtained in the sample. T...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for regulating the mechanical properties of a magnesium alloy by using grain boundary stability, which comprises the steps of: (1) melting and casting pure magnesium and a magnesium intermediate alloy at high temperature to obtain a low-alloyed binary magnesium alloy; (2) The obtained low-alloyed binary magnesium alloy is subjected to solution treatment to obtain a solid solution magnesium alloy; (3) the obtained solid solution magnesium alloy is processed into a flake magnesium alloy sample, and high-pressure torsion treatment is performed to obtain a grain size ultra-refinement and segregation of grain boundary elements. The present invention does not rely on the addition of a large amount of expensive alloying elements, and uses high-pressure torsion technology to achieve grain refinement and grain boundary element segregation under the premise of only adding a small amount of alloying elements, and finally achieves a large change in the strength and plasticity of magnesium alloys .

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of magnesium alloy manufacturing, and relates to a method for largely regulating the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys by utilizing grain boundary stability. Background technique [0002] Magnesium alloy is the metal structural material with the lowest density. It has outstanding characteristics such as high specific strength and high specific stiffness. It has broad application prospects in aerospace, transportation and other fields with urgent needs for weight reduction. However, the magnesium alloy has a hexagonal close-packed (HCP) crystal structure, and there are few independent slip systems under room temperature deformation conditions, and its plastic deformation at room temperature is mainly caused by the {0001}<11-20> basal plane slip with the lowest critical shear stress. and {10-12}<10-11> tensile twinning, resulting in low absolute strength and room temperature plasticity, which serious...
