Influence of hot rolling strategies on the microstructure and mechanical properties of a twin-roll cast WZ73 alloy
摘要
The effects of rolling temperature, intermediate heat treatment, equivalent strain, equivalent strain rate, and number of passes on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg alloys containing block-shaped long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phases were systematically investigated. Hot rolling at 500 °C and 520 °C produced predominantly recrystallized microstructures, with higher temperatures increasing the dynamic recrystallized (DRX) fraction (from 89% to 94%) and reducing grain size (11 μm to 10 μm). Block-shaped LPSO phases at higher temperatures promoted particle-stimulated nucleation (PSN), while lamellar LPSO at lower temperatures exerted a pinning effect. Single-pass high equivalent strain deformation (
