Grain Refinement and Dispersion Precipitation of I-Phase in Mg-Zn-Y Alloy Processed by ECAP
Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) has been conducted on as-extruded Mg-Zn-Y alloy containing quasicrystal phase at a temperature of 523 K. The optical images indicate that after 8 ECAP passes through route Ba, the grain size of the extruded alloy is decreased sharply; and the coarse eutectic icosahedral quasicrystal phases (I-phases) are broken and dispersed in the alloy; and the distributions of Zn and Y elements become more homogeneous. These can be attributed to the shear effect during the ECAP processing. TEM micrographs show the grain refinement, the evolution of broken and dispersed I-phases and dispersion precipitation of nano I-phases during 1-,4-and 8-pass ECAPed MgZn-Y alloy. And the mechanism of grain refinement is also discussed.
