Abstract

In this study, the effect of mechanical alloying on the microstructure and phase constituents of Mg-6Al-1Zn-1Si system was investigated. To understand the thermal behavior, isothermal annealing was performed at three different temperatures of 350, 400 and 450 °C for 1h. The results showed the grain size initially decreases with increasing the milling time up to 35h and then slightly increases. In contrast, the lattice strain increases sharply with increasing the milling time up to 35h and then decreases. Second-phase intermetallic particle Mg2Si was produced during annealing and the amount of this phase was increased with increasing annealing temperature. The mechanical alloying process decreased the formation temperature of Mg2Si.
