Comparison of Workability of ZK60A Alloy Depending on Casting Methods

Abstract:

In this research, the effect of casting methods on the workability of magnesium alloy ZK60A was investigated by comparing two different billets, fabricated by semi-continuous casting and die casting. To determine the workability of the materials, uniaxial compression tests were conducted at different elevated temperatures and strain rate of 0.01/s. In addition, the X-ray inspection system and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) were employed to compare their internal defects and microstructures, respectively. The workability of ZK60A depending on the casting methods is discussed based on the obtained experimental results.
