Property profile development during wire extrusion and wire drawing of magnesium alloys AZ31 and ZX10

• Direct comparison of property profiles depending on the manufacturing process and alloy. One-step direct extrusion wires up to a diameter 0.2 mm. DRX is dominant mechanism for texture development in SRX wire drawing, resulting different profiles. Improvement properties significantly by especially after first two passes. This paper deals with impact mechanical magnesium alloys, AZ31 ZX10. For this study, were produced diameters mm via one-step as hot forming route directly compared conventional cold drawing routes 0.3 associated heat-treatment. The alloy dependent microstructure resolved respect underlying recrystallization mechanisms, which determines concurrently strength ductility wires. experimental results clearly show that process, degree deformation (wire diameter) well itself have major While AZ31, does not enable strong development, ZX10 enhanced concurrent weak due adjusted dynamic during forming. In contrast, such microstructures cannot be static recrystallization. However, it possible improve limited
