The effect of solution-treated on the self-corrosion performance and discharge AZ91 magnesium alloy as anode material was analyzed by microscopic characterization, immersion tests, electrochemical measurements, tests. study shows that β-phase in gradually dissolved matrix with increase solution temperature, activity significantly improved. Through comparison three different processes, it is fou...

Metal matrix composite (MMC) technology can improve the service performance of matrix metals and alloys. Most magnesium alloy based MMCs are produced via a casting process, therefore the casting microstructures are of vital importance to their performance in service. The formation of microstructure during solidification of MMCs is mainly influenced by four factors: nucleation (or its absence) o...

Abstract In this study, the effect of cutting conditions on surface integrity was investigated in micromilling magnesium alloy (AZ91). Microtool diameter, speed, feed rate, and depth cut parameters are used. These variables were at three different levels with Taguchi L 9 experimental design method. The least-best objective function As a result experiments, roughness values obtained. It has been...

Magnesium based metal matrix composites (MMCs) have been extensively studied as an attractive choice for automotive and aerospace applications due to their low density and superior specific properties including strength, stiffness and creep resistance. Xi et al [1] studied the Ti6Al-4V particulate (TAp) reinforced magnesium matrix composite which is fabricated by powder metallurgy route. The te...
