Abstract
We have proposed a new extrusion process functionally combined with torsion. Extrusion-torsion simultaneous processing is a very attractive technique for fabricating a rod-shape material with high strength and excellent workability. To improve the hardness, the aging treatment was performed with AZ91D magnesium alloy screw thread-rolled at room temperature using extrusion-torsion simultaneous processing. The distribution of hardness from the tip to center in as thread-rolled screw was modified to uniform distribution by the isothermal aging treatment at 423 K for 460.8 ks. The peak hardness was not depended on the working temperature and rotation speed during extrusion-torsion simultaneous processing. β-Mg17Al12 precipitates are obviously grown in as peak-aged condition comparing with as thread-rolled condition.
