The effects of the Zn content on the microstructure and corrosion behavior in 1M NaCl solution were investigated in Mg-(0~6)%Zn casting alloys. The MgZn phase was scarcely observed in the Mg-1%Zn alloy, while the Mg-(2~6)%Zn alloy consisted of ${\alpha}$-(Mg) and MgZn phases. With an increase in the Zn content, the amount of the MgZn phase was gradually increased. Immersion and electrochemical corrosion tests indicated that the Mg-1%Zn alloy had the lowest corrosion rate among the alloys, and a further increase in the Zn content resulted in the deterioration of the corrosion resistance. Microstructural examinations of the corroded surfaces and EIS analyses of surface corrosion films revealed that the best corrosion resistance at 1%Zn was associated with the absence of MgZn phase particles in the microstructure and the contribution of Zn element to the formation of a protective film on the surface. A micro-galvanic effect by the MgZn particles led to the increased rate of corrosion at a higher Zn content.

본 연구에서는 Mg을 첨가한 Cu-alloy에 의해 TiN의 확산방지능력을 향상시키고자 하였다. Cu(Mg) 박막은 대기노출시킨 TiN박막위에 증착되었으며 열처리시 Cu 박막내의 Mg은 TiN의 표면에 있는 산소와 반응하여 매우 얇은(~100 $\AA$) MgO를 형성하게되고 MgO에 의해 TiN의 확산방지능력은 Cu(4.5 at.%Mg)의 경우 $800^{\circ}C$까지 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 Cu(Mg) a]toy는 TiN위에서 접착특성이 좋지 않기 때문에 TiN을 $O_2$plasma 처리하였으며 $O_2$ plasma 처리후 $300^{\circ}C$ 진공열처리를 통해 접착력이 크게 향상되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 $O_2$ plasma 처리에 의해 TiN표면에 Mg과 반응할 수 있는 산소의 양이 증가하는 데 기인하며 이에 따라 Mg의 계면이동이 크게 증가되어 치밀한 MgO가 형성됨을 확인하였다. 그리고 $O_2$ plasma 처리시 RF power를 증가시키면 계면으로 이동하는 Mg의 양이 오히려 감소하였고 이것은 TiN의 표면이 $TiO_2$로 변하여 Mg과 결합할 수 있는 산소의 양이 상대적으로 감소하였기 때문인 것으로 생각된다. 또한 접착층으로서 Si을 50$\AA$ 증착하여 접착력을 크게 향상시켰으며 Si 증착에 의한 TiN의 확산방지능력은 감소되지 않는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Mg-Al합금 분진의 마그네슘 성분 비율이 분진폭발특성에 미치는 영향을 알기 위하여 Siwek 20 L 구형 분진폭발시험장치를 사용하여 농도를 변화시키면서 실험적으로 조사하였다. 이를 위하여 체적평균입경이 $151{\sim}160{\mu}m$의 Mg-Al합금 분진을 사용하였다. 그 결과 Mg-Al합금에서의 Mg성분의 증가는 폭발하한농도의 감소와 최대폭발압력의 증가로 나타났다. 또한 Mg-Al합금의 최대폭발압력과 최대폭발압력상승속도는 주로 분진 농도에 의존하였다. 그러나 Mg-Al (40:60 wt%), Mg-Al (50:50 wt%) 및 Mg-Al (60:40 wt%)의 폭발지수(Kst)에 있어서, 마그네슘 성분의 증가에 따라서 폭발지수가 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 Mg합금의 반응고성형 공정기술을 개발하기 위하여 여러 가지 전단속도와 냉각속도에 따른 Mg합금의 점도와 딕소트러픽 거동을 분석하였으며, 이를 전산모사연구와 비교 검토하였다. 전산모사연구에서는 미세조직과 공정변수를 고려한 반응고 슬러리의 유변학적 거동을 분석하였다. 반응고 온도영역에서의 Mg합금(AZ91D) 슬러리의 점도는 고상율에 따라 지수함수적으로 증가하였으며, 전단속도가 증가하면 감소하는 경향을 나타났다. Mg합금 슬러리의 유변학적 거동을 정확하게 분석하기 위하여 Carreau 모델을 사용하여 ANYCAST 프로그램에서 고압다이캐스팅용 금형으로의 Mg합금 반응고 슬러리의 충진거동을 모사하였다. 전산모사된 결과는 동일한 조건에서의 실제 실험결과와 잘 일치하였다.

In this study, Al-Si-Mg alloys are additively manufactured using a selective laser melting (SLM) process from AlSi10Mg powders prepared from a gas-atomization process. The processing parameters such as laser scan speed and laser power are investigated for 3D printing of Al-Si-Mg alloys. The laser scan speeds vary from 100 to 2000 mm/s at the laser power of 180 and 270 W, respectively, to achieve optimized densification of the Al-Si-Mg alloy. It is observed that the relative density of the Al-Si-Mg alloy reaches a peak value of 99% at 1600 mm/s for 180 W and at 2000 mm/s for 270W. The surface morphologies of the both Al-Si-Mg alloy samples at these conditions show significantly reduced porosities compared to those of other samples. The increase in hardness of as-built Al-Si-Mg alloy with increasing scan speed and laser power is analyzed due to high relative density. Furthermore, it was found that cooling conditions after the heat-treatment for homogenization results in the change of dispersion status of Si phases in the Al-Si matrix but also affects tensile behaviors of Al-Si-Mg alloys. These results indicate that combination between SLM processing parameters and post-heat treatment should be considered a key factor to achieve optimized Al-Si alloy performance.

Mg alloy sheet exhibits significant differences in tensile and compressive yield stress depending on the temperature, as well as variations in its hardening behavior. Such unusual behavior makes it difficult to simulate the forming process of Mg alloy sheets. Results of analysis tend to deviate significantly from the experimental data because commercial software do not completely implement the unusual hardening behavior, yield asymmetry and temperature dependent changes in the Mg alloy's material properties. In the previous study, an in-plane tension-compression cyclic tester was developed to predict the cyclic behavior of Mg alloy sheets at an elevated temperature of up to $250^{\circ}C$. A new constitutive equation was suggested to analyze the unusual behavior, and was implemented in the commercial software in the form of user subroutine. In this paper, a stamping process of Mg seat cushion panel for automotive parts was simulated using the experimental data and user subroutine. Based on the analysis, an optimal temperature condition was determined and a stamping die shape at each step was suggested in the non-isothermal stamping of Mg alloy sheets.

Mg-Zn합금계의 입자미세화를 위하여 0.5-6 wt.% 조성범위의 Cu 및 Si를 첨가하였다. 합 잉곳트는 4 $\times$ $10^{-4}$ Torr의 진공의 BN을 내벽에 바른 석영관내에서 제조하였다. 제조된 합금을 435$^{\circ}C$에서 8시간 용체화처리한 후 결정립크기와 경도를 측정하였다. 측정결과 Mg-6wt.%Zn합금의 입자미세효과는 Cu가 2wt.%첨가될때, Si은 1.5wt.%가 첨가될 때가 최적의 조건이었다. Mg-6wt.% Zn과 Mg-6wt.%Zn-2wt.%Cu 및 Mg-6wt.%Zn-1.5wt.%Si합금을 시효열처리하여 시효거동을 조사하였다. 입자미세화에 의한 경도증가효과는 Mg-Zn-Cu합금계에서 크게 나타났으며 시효에 의한 경도증가 효과는 Mg-Zn-또합금계에서 크게 나타났다.

In this study, it is investigated that the effect of material properties such as various temperature, forming speed and strain rates on formability and forming limits of Mg alloy sheet in square cup deep drawing. Since the sheet metal forming of Mg alloy is perform at elevated temperature, the effect of strain rates related with the forming temperature and forming speed is very important factor for formability and forming limits. Therefore, the investigation for process variables is necessary to improve formability and forming limits. Also, the effects of strain rate and thickness transformation were studied by the experimental and FE analysis using the square cup deep drawing. The temperature, forming speed, and strain rates were investigated. Forming of Mg alloy takes consider into temperature, proper forming speed and strain-rate the formed parts were good without defects fur forming limits.

Role of Ca in grain growth behavior has been investigated in hot-rolled Al-3%Mg and Al-3%Mg-0.5%Ca wrought alloys. When annealed for 1 hr from 723 to 823 K, grain size of the Al-3%Mg alloy increased rapidly above 723 K, whereas grains were relatively stable up to 773 K for the Ca-containing alloy. Grain homogeneity of the Ca-containing alloy was better than that of the Ca-free alloy both in hot-rolled and annealed states. Calculated activation energies for grain growth were 77.6 and 85.9 kJ/mole in the range of 723 to 823 K for the alloys with 0 and 0.5%Ca, respectively. Taking SEM images and EDS results into account, enhanced thermal stability in response to Ca addition would be associated with Al4Ca compounds located along the grain boundaries, which eventually play a role in restricting grain growth at elevated temperatures.

Change in damping capacity with strain amplitude was studied in Mg-Al-Si alloy in as-cast, solution-treated and aged states, respectively. The as-cast microstructure of the alloy is characterized by eutectic ${\beta}$($Mg_{17}Al_{12}$) phase and Chinese script type $Mg_2Si$ particles. The solution treatment dissolved the ${\beta}$ phase into the matrix, while the aging treatment resulted in the distribution of continuous and discontinuous type ${\beta}$ precipitates. The solution-treated microstructure showed better damping capacity than as-cast and aged microstructures both in strain-dependent and strain-independent damping regions. The decrease in second-phase particles which weakens the strong pinning points on dislocations and distribution of solute atoms in the matrix, would be responsible for the enhanced damping capacity after solution treatment.
