Microstructure, Texture and Mechanical Properties of Mg-2.0Zn-0.3Gd Alloy Sheets Fabricated by Large Strain Hot Rolling

Abstract:

Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets processed by large strain hot rolling with one pass of 80% reduction at 200°C and 250°C were selected to investigate the rolling temperature effect on the microstructure, texture and mechanical properties of Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets after rolling and subsequent annealing. It was found that the rolling temperatures in the present study seemed to have no obvious effect on the microstructure of Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets during large strain hot rolling process. High density of shear bands and numerous intersected twins but free of DRX grains were observed in the microstructure of both sheets. The Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets showed non-basal textures with peaks tilting to TD after annealing. While the peak intensity of (0002) pole figure increased as the rolling temperature decreasing. Tensile testing results revealed that the Mg-2Zn-0.3Gd sheets rolled at both temperature displayed high room temperature ductility about 40% after annealing, which is due to the existence of non-basal texture.
