The application of USRP induces a depth-dependent gradient microstructure characterized by a gradual transition from fine-grained surface layers to coarser-grained regions. Severe plastic deformation at the surface significantly enhances surface microhardness, with values increasing from 63.8 HV in the untreated specimen to 132.9 HV after USRP-4 passes. The thickness of the plastic deformation layer exhibits process-dependent behavior, growing from 200 µm (two passes) to 250 µm (four passes). Wear test results indicate that the wear resistance of the material is significantly enhanced after USRP treatment. This improvement is primarily attributed to the combined effects of the following factors: surface grain refinement, the role of dislocation-induced twinning, increased hardness, the formation of nanoscale secondary phases, introduction of residual compressive stresses, weakened surface texture, and reduced surface roughness. Notably, both friction coefficients and wear volumes show a direct dependence on the number of rolling passes. This study systematically elucidates the underlying mechanisms linking USRP-induced microstructural evolution to enhanced wear performance, providing critical insights for optimizing surface engineering strategies in magnesium alloys.","PeriodicalId":16214,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Magnesium and Alloys","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145077491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The synergistic effect of texture weakening and second phases refinement significantly enhanced the tensile strength and elongation of the FSP-1000-120 alloy to 302.1 MPa and 18.3%, respectively, representing increases of 20.8% and 281.3% compared to the as-cast alloy.

Electric pulse treatment has proven effective in regulating the microstructure of materials. This work comprehensively investigated the effects of pulse current on the microstructure and damping performance of pure Mg with micron-submicron grains, and revealed the mechanisms of damping enhancement associated with electric pulse treatment. The results suggest that pulse current effectively promotes dislocation disentanglement, thereby increasing the mobile dislocation density. In addition, pulse current facilitates dislocation slip and grain boundary relaxation in submicron samples, accompanied by the generation of high-density stacking faults. The microstructural evolution enhances the damping capacity of pure Mg. After electric pulse treatment, the strain amplitude independent damping (<em>Q</em><sub>0</sub><sup>–1</sup>) in samples I-Q-0 (7 µm), I-Q-20 (308 nm), and I-Q-60 (155 nm) increased by 17%, 11%, and 14%, while the strain amplitude dependent damping (<em>Q</em><sub>h</sub><sup>-1</sup>) increased by 5%, 11%, and 54%, respectively. The increment in strain amplitude independent damping capacity Δ<em>Q</em><sub>0</sub><sup>–1</sup> is dominated by dislocations. Because pulse current can induce higher mobile dislocation density, contributing to greater energy dissipation and enhanced damping. Besides, the increment in strain amplitude dependent damping capacity Δ<em>Q</em><sub>h</sub><sup>-1</sup> in micron I-Q-0 (7 µm) sample is also dominated by dislocation behavior. However, in submicron I-Q-20 (308 nm) and I-Q-60 (155 nm) samples, Δ<em>Q</em><sub>h</sub><sup>-1</sup> is dominated by stacking faults rather than dislocations.

At elevated temperatures (200–300 °C), even rare-earth reinforced Mg alloys experience notable strength deterioration. In this paper, the additions of different composition (0.4 and 0.8 wt.%) of Ca or Al in Mg-7Y-3Zn-0.4Mn alloy is added to increase the service temperature. The strength of Mg-7Y-3Zn-0.4Mn is effectively improved by Al element and higher after more Al is added, particularly at 300 °C. Specifically, the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of Mg-7Y-3Zn-0.4Mn alloy increases from 181 MPa to 213 MPa by adding 0.8 wt.% Al. Remarkably, the UTS declines merely by 36 MPa (from 249 to 213 MPa) between 200 °C and 300 °C. And at both RT and elevated temperature (300 °C), Al alloying effectively improves the EL of Mg-7Y-3Zn-0.4Mn alloy, with improvements from 5.4 % to 14.4 % and 8.2 % to 23.1 %, respectively. Al element has dramatically increased the thermal stability and more significant effect at higher temperature. After prolonged annealing at 475 °C for 48 h, the Mg-7Y-3Zn-0.4Mn-0.8Al alloy shows only a limited increase in grain size from 16.9 to 23 µm. Even after annealing at 525 °C for 48 h, the Mg-7Y-3Zn-0.4Mn-0.8Al alloy maintains a grain size of approximately 41 µm. However, the growth of grain in basic alloy and 0.4 wt.% Ca alloy exceeds 150 µm. For microstructure, Ca addition primarily promotes LPSO phase formation and subsequent coarsening. Alloying with Al leads to three distinct microstructural changes: the LPSO phase transitions from interconnected networks to discrete blocks, Al<sub>2</sub>Y particles precipitate homogenously, and second phases distribute more uniformly.

Three distinct orientations are examined by using the following bending specimens: (i) the normal direction (ND) sample, where the <em>c</em>-axes are predominantly aligned along the specimen thickness, (ii) the rolling direction (RD) sample, where the <em>c</em>-axes are mostly aligned along the longitudinal direction, and (iii) the 45 sample, where the <em>c</em>-axes are tilted at approximately 45° from both the thickness and longitudinal directions. The bending properties vary significantly depending on the initial texture, thereby affecting the strain accommodation and dominant deformation modes. The ND sample exhibits the lowest bendability due to its unfavorable orientation for {10–12} extension twinning and basal slip, which results in poor strain accommodation and early crack initiation in the outer tensile side. By comparison, the RD sample demonstrates an approximately 22.1 % improvement, with extensive {10–12} extension twinning in the outer tensile zone. Meanwhile, the 45 sample exhibits the highest bendability (approximately 75.7 % greater than that of the ND sample) due to sustained activation of both basal slip and {10–12} extension twinning, promoting uniform strain distribution and delaying fracture. Detailed electron backscatter diffraction analysis reveals that the 45 sample retains favorable crystallographic orientations for basal slip throughout bending, minimizing strain localization and enhancing the bendability. These findings highlight the importance of tailoring the initial texture in order to optimize the bending properties of Mg alloy sheets, and provide valuable insights for improving the manufacturability of Mg-based structural components.","PeriodicalId":16214,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Magnesium and Alloys","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145043259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
