This study investigated the synthesis of nanostructured AZ31 powder using cryomilling, finding that cryomilling could refine the grain size of particles but also presented limitations in terms of particle agglomeration and processing. Additionally, the hardness of the particles increased significantly after 6 hours of cryomilling.
The synthesis of nanostructured AZ31 powder by cryomilling was studied in this paper. The microstructural evolution during cryomilling, including the changes of particle morphology and internal grain size, was characterized via optical microscopy, SEM, TEM and XRD. Observations during the cryomilling produced four main findings. Firstly, cryomilling can refine the grains of AZ31 particles down to 100 nm after around 1 h milling and the minimum average grain size of about 30 nm was reached when the cryomilling time was extended to 6 h or longer. Secondly, cold welding played a dominant role in the early stage of cryomilling, while fracture took place in the late stage and surpassed cold welding. The former led to a particle size increase while the latter decreased the particle size. The minimum average particle size after 6 h cryomilling was approximately 26 mu m. Thirdly, a few particles were agglomerated with other particles and could not be processed by cryomilling due to cold welding. Finally, after cryomilling 6 h and longer times, the hardness reached 162 HV which was much higher than other values reported in AZ31 alloy studies.
