Characteristic Features of Physical and Mechanical Properties of Ultrafine-Grained Al–Mg Alloy 1560

详细

Specimens of Al–Mg alloy 1560 of ultrafine-grained structure were obtained by the method of severe plastic deformation based on multiple equal-channel angular pressing. Impact on physical and mechanical properties of the processed material and fracture pattern of specimens was studied. Tensile tests showed an increase of the offset yield strength and resistance to rupture with decrease in the ultimate deformation. The obtained specimens have increased microhardness values compared to the initial ones. It was established that the last cycle of pressing determines the structural orientation of macroscopic shear bands occurring at an angle to the specimen longitudinal axis while passing connection of channels. It affects the physical and mechanical properties of the material and fracture pattern. The quality control of the obtained specimens by the method of ultrasonic defectoscopy and X-ray tomography confirmed the absence of macroand microdefects when following the matched optimal regime of processing.
