Hot Compression Behavior of New Al-6Mg and Al-8Mg Alloy with Improved Hot Workability Fabricated by Direct Chill Casting Method

초록

A hot compression test of new Al-6Mg and Al-8Mg alloys was conducted to understand the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior by Mg contents. To investigate the hot workability of Al-Mg with high Mg contents, the hot deformation behavior of Al-6Mg and Al-8Mg alloys was analyzed by a hot compression test in the temperature range of 300-450 degrees C, and the strain rate range of 10(-3)-10(0)/s. Subsequently, high-temperature deformation behavior was investigated through the processing map and microstructure observation. In this study, the results have shown that, as the Mg contents increase, the maximum and yield strength increase while rapid flow softening after the peak strain has been observed due to accelerated dynamic recrystallization (DRX). Finally, the increase of Mg contents affects an increase of heat dissipation efficiency to be an indicator of regular deformation.
