The effect of quenching rate on microstructure, residual stress (RS) and mechanical properties of a rare-earth wrought magnesium alloy were investigated. The decrease of quenching rate had little effect on the grain size but affected the presence of twinning, precipitates, and texture, leading to easier brittle fracture after aging. Quenching at 100 degrees C was found to be the best condition, significantly reducing RS and resulting in only a slight decrease in yield stress and hardness compared to quenching at 20 degrees C.
To investigate the effect of quenching rate on microstructure, residual stress (RS) and mechanical properties of a rare-earth wrought magnesium alloy Mg-Gd-Y-Zr-Ag-Er, RS in 20 degrees C water quenching (WQ (20 degrees C)), 100 degrees C water quenching (WQ (100 degrees C)) or air cooling (AC) conditions were measured and compared with the simulation results, corresponding mechanical properties and microstructure in quenching and aging state were studied. The decrease of quenching rate has little effect on the grain size but makes the twinning disappear, precipitates increase and the texture weakened, leading to easier brittle fracture after aging. WQ (100 degrees C) is the best quenching condition in this study, with a significant decline in RS and only 4.9% and 3.7% decrease in yield stress (YS) and hardness compared with WQ (20 degrees C). The results make it feasible to invent an appropriate quenching method of greatly reducing RS while maintaining mechanical properties. The research conclusions would be beneficial to the application of the alloy.
