Effect of Strain to the Microstructure and Texture of AZ31 Magnesium Alloy during Compression Deformation at Room Temperature

Abstract:

AZ31 magnesium alloy samples were compressed to different strains at room temperature and examined through the optical microscope, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electronic microscope. The results show that the produced twins were mainly the {102} type, and then the {101} type and {102}-{101} type. The size and amount of the twins increased with the strains growth, and after the saturation of twins in the grains the samples fractured. The compressed texture with the basal planes perpendicular to the compression direction also become stronger with strain increase. The {102} twinning deformation played an important role in changing the microstructure and properties of the magnesium alloy at room temperature.
