Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 21The Effect of Processing Routes on the Structure and Properties of Magnesium-Tini Composites(Elsevier Science Sa, 2012) Esen, ZiyaTiNi particulate-reinforced magnesium matrix composites were fabricated by rotary hot swaging and post-annealing heat treatment. The magnesium matrix of the processed composites was observed to contain elongated grains comprised of equiaxed recrystallised grains. Each elongated grain was surrounded by thin, non-continuous magnesium oxide layers composed of nanometric magnesium oxide particles. The TiNi reinforcement particles preserved their starting spherical shape during processing and testing. However, the hot deformation and annealing heat treatment changed the underlying room temperature microstructures and transformation behaviours of the reinforcements. In contrast to the majority of the ceramic reinforcements, the ductility of the composites was not significantly degraded by the addition of TiNi reinforcements; conversely, an approximately 25% enhancement was recorded in the elongation values for the Mg-5 vol% TiNi alloy. While the yield strengths of the composites changed linearly with increasing reinforcement content, the highest compression peak strength value was obtained with the addition of 5 vol% TiNi, beyond which the strength was slightly decreased. During mechanical testing, the TiNi particles debonded due to insufficient bonding between the matrix and reinforcement, and fracture resulted largely within the oxide layers present in the interfacial region and the magnesium oxide film in the magnesium grain boundaries.

Final products contained porosities in the range similar to 43-64% with an average macropore size between 485 and 572 mu m and a lamellar type Widmanstatten microstructure composed of alpha-platelets and beta-laths. Unlike the case of bulk Ti-6Al-4V alloy tested under compression loading, compression stress-strain curves of manufactured Ti-6Al-4V foams were similar to those of elastic-plastic foams, which contain a linear elastic region; a plateau stage: and a densification stage. In the plateau region deformation bands perpendicular to the compression axis were developed and cell collapsing took place together with the buckling and fracture of some of the cell walls and edges in a ductile manner. Calculated elastic modulus and yield strength were in the range 1.42-14.7 GPa and 28.2-150 MPa, respectively, and the foam mechanical properties were found to be dependent on micro porous cell wall properties, which in turn depends on neck size between powder particles. Around 330 MPa yield strength value was calculated for porous cell walls by the use of Ti-6Al-4V alloy powder samples sintered in loose and compacted conditions, which were utilized to simulate the cell wall structure of foams. In addition, overall mechanical properties of foam s were investigated considering macro porosity fraction, p(macro), and the yield strength of foams exhibited a power law dependence, similar to commonly used minimum solid area models, in the form of A*(1 - p(marco))(n), where the proportionality constant "A" was found to be the yield strength of micro porous cell walls.
