Magnesium AZ91 Alloy Cast Mechanical Properties Measured by the Miniaturized Disc-Bend Test

Article Preview

Abstract:

Miniaturized Disc-Bend Test (MDBT), also called the Small Punch Test (SPT) is used for characterizing the mechanical properties of metals, when only a small volume of material is available. This study was dedicated to investigating the mechanical properties of AZ91 magnesium cast alloy. The casts were prepared via gravity sand casting and have sections with different wall thickness. The examined samples were cut out of 30 mm and 10 mm thick walls. The correlation between results obtained from the tensile tests and MDBT was determined.
