The effects of Sm on the microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast Mg-6Al-2Sr alloys were studied by optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectrometer, transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction and tensile test. The results show that the microstructure of as-cast Mg-6Al-2Sr alloy is composed of α-Mg, Mg_(17)Al_(12), Mg_(13)Al_(3)Sr and lamellar acicular Al_(4)Sr phase. After adding Sm element, granular block Al2Sm phase appears in the grain. With the increase of Sm content, the discontinuous long strip reticular Mg_(17)Al_(12)phase and the lamellar acicular Al4Sr phase gradually decrease, and the Al_(2)Sm phase increases and distributes more dispersedly, so the alloy microstructure is continuously refined. The average grain size of the alloys decreases at first and then increases with the increase of Sm content. When the Sm content is 1.5 wt%, the average grain size reaches the minimum value of 94.6 μm. With the increase of Sm content, the mechanical properties of the alloy at room temperature first increase and then decrease. When the Sm content is 1.5 wt%, the alloy has the best comprehensive mechanical properties at room temperature.展开更多

All the studied alloys can be extruded successfully at a high speed of 10 m/min. The grain size, area fraction of particles and tensile properties are found to be greatly affected by the extrusion speed and Zn content, resulting in tensile properties showing lower strength and ductility as the extrusion speed increases and Zn content decreases. The dependence of grain size and tensile properties on the second phase particles is also discussed.展开更多
