| Abstract Scope |
Single pass differential speed rolling of magnesium zinc alloys (Mg5Zn) has been investigated to determine the role of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) on the grain refinement and corresponding mechanical properties. The study has shown that DRX grain size decreased with increased rolling reduction as well as various characteristics pertaining to grain refinement of the ultrafine and partially recrystallized grains. Evaluation of the microstructure was performed through optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy / electron backscatter diffraction to evaluate the effect of DRX on grain size. Alternatively, a decrease in grain size showed an expected upward trend of increasing tensile strength and hardness with increased rolling reduction. |
