Influence of heat treatment on the machinability and corrosion behavior of AZ91 Mg alloy

In the present study, AZ91 Mg alloy was heat treated at 410 °C for 6, 12 and 24 h to investigate the influence of heat treatment on machinability and corrosion behavior. The effect of soaking time on the amount and distribution of Mg17Al12 (β – phase) was analyzed under the optical microscope. Micro...
