Influence of Annealing Treatment on Precipitation of β-Mg₁₇Al₁₂ Phase of AZ80 Magnesium Alloy

Abstract:

The microstructure and element distribution of AZ80 magnesium alloy as-cast and after annealing treatment were studied by OM, SEM, XRD, EDS and TEM. The results show that the coarse divorced eutectic phase distributed along the grain boundary dissolve into Mg matrix during the isothermal process at 415°C for 24h. During the cooling process of annealing treatment, the lameller-shape β-Mg₁₇Al₁₂ nucleated preferentially in the grain near the boundary, then grows towards the neighbor grains with longitudinal direction, which precipitated from magnesium solid solution as perlite-type precipitation. When cooled to room temperature, the lameller-shape β-Mg₁₇Al₁₂ was uniformly distributed in the matrix, and the lamellar spacing inside β phase is about 1-2μm.
