Abstract

The effect of extrusion ratio on microstructures and mechanical properties of magnesium alloy AZ91D extruded tube at 430°C has been studied. After the evolution of microstructure and mechanical properties of AZ91D during extrusion were studied, the following parameters were obtained: tensile strength reached the climax value of 306.9MPa and elongation peak value of 10.1% at an extrusion ratio of 7.125, and with the increase of the extrusion ratio to 7.45, yield strength reached a top value of 285.795MPa with decreased tensile strength and elongation. It was concluded that mechanical properties of magnesium alloys AZ91D could be enhanced by adjusting the extrusion ratio near recrystallization.
