Özet

In this study, effect of indium (In) addition on microstructure and mechanical properties of AM60 magnesium alloys was investigated. In additions were made by 0.2, 0.5 and 1 wt.%. Alloys were produced by conventional gravity casting in a steel mould. A homogenization treatment at 350 °C for 24 h was performed after casting processes. Homogenized samples were 1 pass hot-rolled by 40 % thickness reduction at 350 °C. The results showed that the average grain size of as-cast and hot-rolled AM60 alloys decreased with In addition. SEM analysis revealed that In addition led to formation of tiny Mg-In binary second phases at triple junctions. Tensile strength of as-cast AM60 alloy increased with increasing amount of In up to 0.5 wt.% above which it decreased. However, after hot-rolling process, AM60 alloy containing 0.2 wt.% In showed the best tensile properties. These improvements were attributed to the refinement of microstructure and dispersion strengthening by Mg- In intermetallic phases. © 2017 TANGER Ltd., Ostrava.
