Abstract
Magnesium matrix in-situ composites with hybrid TiC+TiB2 reinforcement are potential materials for automobile and aerospace applications. It is essential to establish the processing map of such composites as these materials may undergo several thermo-mechanical processes while manufacturing engineering components. In the current work, AZ91 Magnesium matrix TiC+TiB2 reinforces hybrid in-situ along with its base counterpart were developed and subjected to solutionization followed by peak aging treatment. The safe processing zone for both base and in-situ composite at all heat treatment conditions have been established through processing map based on dynamic materials model (DMM) by conducting hot compression tests at various temperatures (250 °C – 450 °C) and strain rates (0.001 s−1 – 10 s−1). Two regions: stable and instable were identified from processing map for all the material conditions. Dynamic recrystallization is the main dominant mechanism in stable region, whereas instable region is characterized by twin and intergranular cracks. To understand the mechanism of hot deformation behavior, activation energy is calculated based on constitutive model for all material conditions. The developed in-situ composite in peak aged condition is found to possess higher activation energy (∼230 kJ/mol) as compared to base alloy (∼126 kJ/mol). A correlation between constitutive model and processing map have been established with an emphasis on their microstructures. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.
