Abstract

During the extrusion process of magnesium alloys, the extrusion speed has different effects on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the material. In this study, tubular extruded profiles produced from AM50 magnesium alloy were investigated. Extrusion production was carried out with 1 mm/s, 1.5 mm/s, and 2 mm/s ram speed, respectively. Tensile tests were carried out on the tensile test samples taken in the extrusion direction. As a result of these tests, yield strength, tensile strength, and elongation values were achieved for different extrusion speeds and compared with each other. In addition, microstructure investigation was carried out, including particle sizes and hardness measurements on tensile test samples via both optical and SEM analysis techniques. Finally, the fracture surfaces of the samples were examined by the SEM method, and the differences were examined.
