Abstract
- The super-light LA141 (Mg-14%Li-1%Al) alloy was produced and processed by high-pressure torsion (HPT) under the imposed pressure of 3 GPa and different shear strains γ through 3, 6, 9 and 12 turns at room temperature (RT). The microstructure evolution of the alloy during the HPT treatment was investigated by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and optical microscope (OM). It turned out that the grains were substantially refined, and the optical microscope revealed that the grains of HPT processed samples at the edge of the disc were finer by comparison with the ones near the center of the disc. Later, Vickers indentation analysis was used to evaluate the micro-hardness of deformed samples, and tension test was employed to obtain the strength and elongation at room temperature. The results indicated that the micro-hardness and tensile strength had increased to a certain extent, and the elongation had been significantly improved.
