Abstract:Effect of isothermal annealing on the microstructure evolution of the cold-rolled Mg-9Al-1Zn alloy strip was investigated. It is found that the competition between the precipitation of β-Mg17Al12 phase and recrystallization of α-Mg matrix occur under the conditions of various annealing temperature and time. At a low annealing temperature (523K), the β-Mg17Al12 particles precipitate preferentially at locally high deformation area and grow into the lamellar-cluster with an increase in the annealing time, retardi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
