| Abstract Scope |
This work shares the recent advances on the thermo-mechanical processing of a zinc-zirconium bearing magnesium alloy highlighting the artificial aging response. ZK60 alloy was subjected to warm rolling followed by aging, whereby the effect of external stress was evaluated in a comparative manner with conventional aging. The need for multi-step solid phase processing routes for enhanced strength and ductility is elaborated in light of the microstructural observations. Findings on the low temperature mechanical properties along with the implications on formability are discussed. |
