Microstructure and Impact Load Performance of Friction Stir Welded Joint of AZ31B Magnesium Alloy

Abstract:

10mm thickness AZ31B magnesium alloy was used as the friction stir welding object in this study. Different welding joints were obtained by setting different friction stir welding parameters. Metallographic analysis and impact loading test were carried out on the joint area. The experiment results show that (i) when the rotational speed of the stirring head is 600rpm and the welding speed is 120mm/min, the microstructure of the joint has the characteristics of compactness, thinning, and large-area twinning, which is beneficial to improve the plasticity of the joint area; (ii) the impact load of the joint is the highest, but lower than that of the base material, which is 95.5% of the base material; (iii) the fracture of impact specimen presents ductile fracture.
