第十章镁合金1.1 引言镁合金从19 世纪初应用到现在,已有近200 年的历史。
主要用于制备铝合金、钢铁脱硫等,作为工程结构材料使用较少,主要应用于航空、航天领域。
随着社会的快速发展,金属材料的消耗日益增多,对铁、铝、铜等金属的需求持续增长,常用的金属资源已经表现出逐年短缺的势态,而镁是世界上最丰富的矿产资源之一,其在地壳中的储量极其丰富,约占地壳总储藏量的2.77%,居第8位。
在大多数国家都能发现镁矿石,但最主要的资源还是海水,海水中含有丰富的镁,含量为0.13%,也就是说每立方米海水中约含有0.13 kg镁,因而海水为人们提供了取之不尽的镁资源。
从20 世纪80 年代后开始,镁合金在工程领域的广泛应用越来越受到重视,更是在90 年代之后得到突飞猛进的发展。
近10 年来,全世界的镁产量翻了一倍,世界各国纷纷把镁资源作为21 世纪的重要战略资源进行规划。
美、日、欧等发达国家对此均极为重视,并为攻克镁合金在各个生产环节的关键技术进行了大型的综合性研究。
我国具有丰富的镁资源,菱镁矿储量、原镁产能、产量和出口均居世界首位,目前原镁产量约占世界总产量的70%。
但是在镁和镁合金的研究和应用领域,我国与欧美发达国家之间的差距还相当大,一方面,我国的原镁产量高、但质量差,镁合金锭的质量也很不尽人意,大多只能廉价出口,另一方面,镁合金在国内的应用较少,高性能镁合金的开发和应用就更为缺乏。
因此,如何利用我国的镁资源优势,将镁的资源优势转变为技术、经济优势,促进国民经济发展、增强我国在镁行业的国际竞争力,是摆在我们面前的迫切任务。
1.2 镁及镁合金的特点镁(Magnesium, Mg),位于元素周期表IIA族,原子序数12,属于活泼性碱金属,电子轨道分布1s22s22p63s2。

AZ91粉末状镁合金的氢化处理及组织演变摘要镁合金是目前最轻的金属结构材料具有比强度高、比刚度高、耐腐蚀、切削加工性能好、易于回收利用等一系列的优点,因而有着极其重要的应用价值与广阔的应用前景。
但是,现有镁合金常温下的塑性变形能力和塑性加工性能仍然较低,限制了其应用。
因此,提高各类镁合金的强度,改善其塑性,是拓展镁合金应用领域推动镁合金发展的关键。
通过细化晶粒制备纳米晶镁合金,能够提高现有各类镁合金材料的强度和塑性,是发展镁合金的有效途径。
当镁合金粉末经氢化—歧化—脱氢—重组工艺处理后,粉末的微观组织被大幅度细化到纳米级。
进一步研究发现,当粉末经脱氢重组后,其晶粒虽有所长大,但仍可保持在纳米级,这一过程被称为HDDR处理。
本文主要研究粉末状镁合金的氢化过程及温度、氢压对氢化过程的影响。
本研究选择应用广泛的AZ91镁合金。
采用“镁合金氩气中磨制成粉末→氢化处理→真空脱氢→组织性能分析测试”的工艺路线,来研究粉末状镁合金的氢化脱氢过程,对其微观结构,相组成的变化进行研究。
利用X 射线衍射(XRD)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)对镁中MgH2的体积分数和表面形貌的变化进行分析。
由于实验仪器出了故障,本次试验需先将仪器修理完善。
关键词:AZ91镁合金,HDDR处理,氢化反应,晶粒细化,纳米晶材料HYDROGEN PROCESSING AND MICROSTRUCTURE EVOLUTION OF AZ91 MAGNESIUM ALLOYABSTRACTMagnesium alloys is the lightest metallic structural material. Due to the unique properties, such as high specific strength and rigidity, easy to recycle and so on, they have great potential for structural applications. However, because of the plastic deformability of magnesium alloys is quite poor at room-temperature, which is an intrinsic drawback to limit their applications. So, enhancing the strength and deformability of magnesium alloy is the key to expand their applications and promote the development of magnesium alloy industry. Grain refinement is the effectual way to enhancing the strength and deformability of Mg alloy.When the magnesium alloy material was treated by hydrogenation- disproportionation-dehydrogenation-restructuring process, the microstructure of the material has been substantially refined to the nanoscale. Further studies shows that the material has been treated by dehydrogenation and restructuring process, its grains would grow up, but still remained at the nanoscale, which is called HDDR processing. The paper mainly studies how the surface of block magnesium alloy is hydrogenated and how the temperature and hydrogenpressure effect to the hydrogenation.In this study, AZ91 has been used, which is currently the most popular magnesium alloy. We study the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation process of the block magnesium alloys, its microstructure, phase composition and surface morphology by “magnes ium alloy ingotslices polishing–hydrogenated–vacuum dehydrogenation–organizations perf ormance analysis test” process. The volume fraction of MgH2 in Mg and changes of the surface topography were analyzed using X-ray diffraction and scanning electronmicroscopy analysis, respectively.KEY WORDS: AZ91 magnesium alloy, HDDR processing, hydrogenation, grain refinement, nanocrystalline materials目录第一章绪论 (1)1.1 引言 (1)1.2 镁及镁合金的概述 (1)1.2.1 镁合金的优异性能 (3)1.3 镁合金的发展及应用 (4)1.3.1 镁合金的发展 (4)1.3.2 镁合金在国防、航空航天工业及汽车中的应用 (5)1.4 镁合金材料的分类及研究状况 (6)1.4.1 细晶镁合金的制备工艺及发展现状 (7)1.4.2 强应变塑性变形晶粒细化技术 (8)1.4.3 快速凝固粉末冶金细晶工艺技术 (9)1.4.4 氢化处理细晶强化镁合金工艺技术 (10)1.5 本课题的目的及意义 (11)1.6 本文的研究内容 (12)第二章实验材料、设备及方法 (13)2.1 实验材料 (13)2.2 实验主要设备 (14)2.3 试样的制备 (15)2.4 组织结构分析 (15)2.4.1 射线衍射分析 (16)2.4.2 金相显微镜分析 (16)2.4.3 扫描电镜分析 (17)2.5 实验工艺方法与过程 (17)2.5.1 试验工艺方法的确定 (17)2.5.2 试验操作流程 (18)第三章氢化处理粉末状镁合金的氢化反应机理 (20)3.1 引言 (20)3.2 镁合金的氢化反应机理 (20)3.2.1 氢分子在镁合金表面的解离吸附 (20)3.2.2 氢离子在镁合金内的扩散与反应 (21)3.3 镁合金氢化过程的影响因素 (21)3.3.1 镁合金自身因素对氢化反应的影响 (21)3.3.2 外界因素对氢化反应的影响 (23)3.3.3 AZ91镁合金氢化处理后的组织演变及分析 (23)3.3.4 镁合金氢化处理前后的组织结构 (24)第四章结论 (27)参考文献 (28)致谢 (30)附录一外文文献原文 (32)附录二外文文献翻译 (36)第一章绪论1.1 引言镁是地壳中分布最广的元素之一,占地壳重量的2.77%,为第四个最丰富的金属元素(位于Al、Fe、Ca)之后。

镁合金(AZ60)Ca第 1 章镁合金材料涂层的研究进展1.1引言传统的医用可植入材料主要是不锈钢、钛合金和钴-铬合金等[1-5]。
这些生物材料弹性模量大,植入后对周围骨组织产生应力遮挡,阻碍了正常的骨形成及塑形[6-8];传统的植入材料虽具有很强的抗腐蚀性,但少量腐蚀产生或磨损过程中释放的金属离子具有细胞毒性,易引起局部组织炎性反应,降低了材料的生物相容性[9-11];此外,这些金属可植入材料一般在骨组织愈合后需要二次手术取出,反复手术增加了患者的病痛和感染几率,同时加重了医疗资源的消耗与社会及个人的经济负担[12,13]。
镁合金材料具有以下特点:1,重量轻,密度低,强度大,弹性模量(约45GPa)相比传统植入材料如钛合金弹性模量103-107GPa,镁合金材料弹性模量与骨组织的弹性模量(18.6-27GPa)更接近。
这一特性可以大大减少传统植入材料植入后引起的应力遮挡问题[14-17];2,镁合金材料的另一优势是其可降解性。
当镁合金材料植入体内后,如果能够控制其降解速度,使其缓慢降解,这样就可避免因二次手术而可能产生的各种危险和减轻患者及社会的经济负担等问题[18,19];3,镁是人体必需的元素之一,它是维持细胞生理功能的重要组成部分,与生理健康有着极其密切的联系。
镁作为人体液内重要阳离子,参与调节机体内各种酶的活性,控制神经传导兴奋性,维持DNA 结构的稳定性及调节蛋白质合成、肌肉收缩等功能[20,21]。
镁基质合金可降解特性又是一把双刃剑,由于镁是极其活跃的金属元素,在生理体液内,尤其是含有氯离子的溶液中,极易发生降解反应,降解速度非常快[22]。
如何提高镁基质材料或镁合金材料的抗腐蚀性,减慢镁基质材料的降解速度一直成为镁基质材料快速发展的瓶颈。
2003 年,德国人Heublein[23]利用镁铝合金制得动脉支架模型植入到动物猪的动脉内。
实验结果显示:镁合金材料在一定时间内维持了很好的机械支架作用,且随着血管支架的逐渐降解血管腔的粗细程度并没有明显的缩小改变。

MAGNESIUMBy Robert E (Bob) BrownMagnesium Monthly ReviewWorld magnesium production in 2004 increased slightly compared with2003. There were further announcements of new, modified, and expanded primary magnesium production plans. Some were old and some quite new. There were also expansions and new secondary (recycling) plants announced.Chinese magnesium producers increased their production and share of the world market for the 11th consecutive year, but ran into some difficulties that increased the price of magnesium in 2004. The price of energy increased, thereby increasing the costs of FeSi, the main reducing agent.Europe is increasing the use of magnesium faster than the US, which continues as the biggest magnesium consumer. Demand in Asia is growing quite rapidly as many neighbouring countries take advantage of Chinese produced magnesium. China has a rapidly growing domestic consumption.Further demand growth will require the use of more Chinese magnesium until the planned electrolytic projects can be built and become operational.Magnesium productionWorld production of primary magnesium metal increased slightly over the previous year. The major portion of the increase again came from China, which produced a record 438,000 t, up 19% from 2003.Table 1.

The only remaining US magnesium producer continues to be US Magnesium Llc(formerly MagCorp).US Magnesium operated its plant at the Great Salt Lake, near Salt Lake City, Utah, with the same management and workforce. The 30 new electrolytic cells and plant modifications are nearly four years old. Cell-life estimates for the new cells have been nearly doubled.US Magnesium Llc announced in September 2004 that it would initiate a further expansion of its magnesium production capabilities. The nameplate capacity of the facility will be increased to 51,000 t/y, utilising the highly efficient electrolytic technology developed by US Magnesium that has proven to reduce energy and labor unit costs significantly. New metal production will be available in July 2005. The expansion will also increase the amount of by-product chemicals such as chlorine, that the company will have available to market. Further expansion to 59,000 t/y and eventually to 73,000 t/y is being studied.It was also noted in a Salt Lake newspaper that “word of US Magnesium increasing production once would have caused an outcry among environmentalists. But this project has not incited objections, largely because the new electrolytic technology has drastically reduced chlorine emissions released while extracting magnesium from the Great Salt Lake's brackish waters”. The new cell technology also cuts energy demand by 25%.Advanced Magnesium Alloy Corp (Amacor), the company that bought the former Xstrata Magnesium recycling plant in Anderson, Indiana, continued to operate its specially designed 25,000 t/y magnesium scrap melting operation through 2004. The plant was hit with a fire on January 14, 2005, and the scrap receiving warehouse area was severely damaged. The special magnesium recycling equipment also suffered some damage. The plant will be rebuilt, repaired and put back into operation.In Alabama, Remag’s idled recycling plant was hit by Hurricane Ivan in September 2004 and was completely destroyed. MagReTech, the newer plant developed by Garfield Alloys, continued to recycle Class 1 magnesium die-casting scrap. Halaco, the recycling plant in California, which had declared bankruptcy, was closed and was due to be liquidated at the end of the year.A new secondary magnesium plant is being installed in a vacant foundry in Camden, Tennessee. MagPro, a Tennessee-chartered company, will be the owner and operator. The foundry was previously owned by Citation Corp., which produced castings and assembled components for the automobile industry. MagPro is owned by John Haack and family. The Haack family, which previouslyran Halaco, has been in the secondary magnesium business for many years, and has developed an innovative magnesium recovery technology that can efficiently and safely recycle magnesium dross, skimming, and Class 1 scrap.Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff held a public meeting in July 2004, in Bay City, Michigan, to discuss the NRC’s clean-up and decommissioning requirements for two nearby sites that have low levels of thorium, a naturally-occurring radioactive material. The sites, located at Kawkawlin, contain thorium contamination resulting from the production of a magnesium-thorium metal alloy by a company that has gone out of business.Thorium-contaminated waste material at the two sites is encapsulated, with a clay cover and walls to prevent the movement of groundwater through the wastes. Other hazardous chemical wastes are also present at the sites but there are no immediate radiological hazards. (Magnesium-thorium alloys were used in castings and in rolled sheet during the 1950-60s and much of the rolled sheet that was used in rocket construction was magnesium-thorium. It was melted and cast as just another alloy in magnesium sand foundries. Those employees who worked with the melting and casting wore film badges to check the amount of exposure. The radiation was quite small.)Bioconvergence, Inc.continues to operate a magnesium alloy turnings recycling plant in Niagara Falls, NY, and is continuing to look at melting the scrap and pouring magnesium ingots.CanadaGossan Resources Ltd has entered into an agreement with Hatch Engineering of Montreal for the first in a series of studies that, collectively, would embody a preliminary feasibility study for its Inwood magnesium project. Currently, an initial economic assessment utilizing Mintek of South Africa's new atmospheric silicothermic magnesium extraction process is under way. The Manitoba Government's Trade and Investment office is providing some assistance to the project.Mintek is developing an advanced thermal magnesium extraction process based on silicothermic reduction of calcined dolomite. The technology is potentially superior to both the Pidgeon and the Magnetherm conventional vacuum processes as it operates at atmospheric pressure and at slightly higher temperatures for better recoveries and throughputs. This new continuous process technology will likely provide for substantially larger production units than the Magnetherm process, with expected improvements to capital and operating costs. Manitoba Hydro's low-cost industrial electricity rates could also provide this energy-intensive project with a significant cost advantage.Timminco Ltd decided to delay the announced four-month closure of its magnesium furnaces at Haley, Ontario. This decision was made because of anunanticipated increase in customer demand for its ultra high-purity magnesium. The closure, originally planned for August through November 2004, is still being deferred.Timminco was exempted from antidumping duties during the original findings of the US Commerce Department many years ago. Timminco produces magnesium using the Pidgeon silicothermic reduction process (small batch type of horizontal retorts.) This is the same process predominantly used in China. Its Haley plant has great historic significance in that it was the site of the first silicothermic magnesium production plant built under the direction of Dr Lloyd M Pidgeon, the man who developed the commercial silicothermic process.Leader Mining International Inc’s management has reported continuing progress on the Cogburn magnesium project in southwestern British Columbia. Activities are now being conducted under North Pacific Alloys Ltd, a BC-registered corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Leader Mining. The company continues to work to develop a US$1.24 billion integrated magnesium quarry and smelter operation. Plant size in the original feasibility study by Hatch Engineering was 131,000 t/y of magnesium and magnesium alloys.Nichromet Extraction Inc signed an agreement with LAB Chrysotile concerning the construction of an industrial pilot plant that will extract nickel and magnesium compounds from chrysotile tailings located in Thetford Mines, Quebec. The past production of chrysotile in Quebec has resulted in producing tailings containing approximately 0.25% Ni and 37-40% MgO. The tailings project is a JV between Nichromet and LAB, and there are an estimated 750 Mt containing nickel worth US$10 billion at current prices.Nichromet is a private Montreal-based company and has been testing hydrometallurgical processes over the past five years. These are targeted towards the extraction of mineral that is refractory to conventional processes. Nichromet has developed technology that is patent pending in Canada and many other countries. This technology allows for the simultaneous extraction of nickel and various magnesium compounds (chloride oxide). According to the agreement between LAB and Nichromet, Nichromet will be responsible for financing the cost of the pilot plant to be located within the LAB premises in Thetford Mines. Nichromet will also be responsible for financing a full feasibility study on the project to be concluded within the next 24 months. The Nichromet technology is a hydrometallurgical process based on chloridation. The operation is conducted at a low temperature with the recycling of water. The solid rejects are inert and insoluble. In these conditions the process respects government norms with regards to the environment.Norsk Hydro is the largest primary magnesium metal producer in Canada, using magnesite imported from China and Australia to produce approximately 43,000 t/y of primary magnesium by a special electrolytic process at Becancour,Quebec. The plant also operates a 10,000 t/y recycling facility. Hydro plans to upgrade the magnesium plant. Production will increase by 7,000 t/y to 58,000 t/y of cast primary metal.Work to expand the plant will start in early 2005 and will take 1½ years to complete. The programme will consist principally of improvements in the dehydration section of the plant and the addition of four electrolytic cells. The plant had been incrementally upgraded from its original 43,000 t/y capacity by debottlenecking and other process improvements.Noranda has no plans to restart its idled Magnola primary magnesium plant in Quebec, despite higher magnesium prices and the US Commerce Dept revoking the antidumping duty order on pure magnesium from Canada, retroactive to August 1, 2000, the effective date of the original full sunset review. The rate had applied to Magnola since it started production in 1999. Magnola ceased production in 2003 after reaching only 60% of its 58,000 t/y capacity because of weak market conditions. Noranda said the revocation is a secondary consideration. The plant was shut down temporarily two years ago and will remain shut down. Noranda's primary focus is on market conditions, such as supply and demand and the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar. Recent currency appreciation hurt as revenues are in US dollars. Noranda had discussions near the end of 2004 with Minmetals Group from China, which is interested in purchasing the total corporation. No specific reference was made at that time to the magnesium operations.Magnesium Alloy Corp of Halifax, Nova Scotia. announced that MagEnergy Inc, a wholly owned energy subsidiary, has signed a preliminary agreement with Soc Nationale d'Electricite (SNEL), the owner and manager of the Inga hydroelectric facility in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. MagEnergy's principal endeavour is to allocate part of the electricity generated by the dam to MagAlloy's Kouilou magnesium project located 200 km west of Inga at the deepwater port city of Pointe-Noire in the Republic of the Congo. SNEL’s management committee and board of directors have approved the agreement. MagEnergy -- together with Rusal, SNC-Lavalin, Eskom, IDC and others – is negotiating with SNEL and the Minister of Mines and Energy, and hopes shortly to conclude this comprehensive agreement for the rehabilitation of all the turbines currently installed at Inga 1 and 2. Besides supplying electricity to MagAlloy's Kouilou plant, electricity sales are also being considered to supply demand in Cabinda (Angola), the Republic of Congo and other neighbouring countries.The Inga hydroelectric site currently consists of the Inga 1 station, which consists of six turbines totalling 351 MW, and the Inga 2 station that consists of eight turbines totalling 1,402 MW. The Inga stations have been highlyunderused since their construction more than 20 years ago. The Inga site, located on the Congo River, represents one of the largest hydroelectric sites in the world that can be expanded at a low cost and without any significant environmental impact.MagEnergy entered into an agreement whereby a consortium called the CTEI (Consortium pour le Transport d'Energy d'Inga) was established. The CTEI targets the construction of a new electrical transmission line to connect Inga with MagAlloy's Kouilou magnesium plant site at Pointe-Noire.Spectra Premium Industries Inc (SPI) has signed an agreement in principle to proceed with the acquisition of 90% of Trimag, a limited partnership headquartered in Boisbriand, Quebec. Investissement Quebec will own the other 10% in Trimag, which is one of the most important North American manufacturers of high-pressure die-cast magnesium alloy parts used in the automotive industry. Created in 1995, Trimag was acquired in 2001 by Soc de Developpement du Magnesium, a limited partnership held by three institutional investors, namely Soc Generale de Financement, Sofinov, a subsidiary of Caisse de Depot et Placement du Quebec, and Solidarity Fund QFL.Trimag has two plants, one in Boisbriand, which began operations in 2002, and the other in Haley, Ontario. At present, nearly all of Trimag's revenues are generated as a Tier 2 supplier in reference to vehicles manufactured by General Motors.The new Boisbriand plant is equipped with two 3,500-t presses, which makes Trimag one of the few companies in North America having the infrastructure to produce large magnesium parts, such as instrument panel beams. The plant will operate at full capacity as of the summer of 2005, as a new supply contract for instrument panel beams for a General Motors plant located in China will have entered into production. Trimag anticipates investing between C$10-million to C$15 million for the expansion and for the acquisition of new equipment.United KingdomMagnesium Elektron, a division of Luxfer, has continued to produce secondary magnesium at its plant in the Manchester area.Birmingham-based Advanced Powder Technology won the Queen's Award for Enterprise for its new, high-yield process for manufacturing atomised magnesium powder. Over the past three years, APT's turnover has more than doubled to £800,000. The company produces powder used in countermeasures against heat-seeking missiles. Using an innovative process to produce the powder has significantly improved the previously expensive and low-yield system.BrazilBrasmag has continued to run its special process silicothermic plant at Bocaiuva. The plant is estimated to have produced 11,000 t in 2004. The plant uses a special modified silicothermic (Bolzano) process developed by Ravelli. The company has been investigating other technologies but by the end of 2004 no decisions had been made.NorwayNorsk Hydro continues to run the magnesium casting operations at the plant in Porsgrunn, rated at 20,000 t/y. The plant remelts scrap and some imported pure magnesium. Norsk Hydro has expanded its recycling plant at Bottrop in Germany to 15,000 t/y from 7,500 t/y.The NetherlandsAntheus Magnesium has formed a JV with Remag of Austria to build and operate a 10,000 t/y magnesium recycling plant in northern Holland. Scrap is obtained from the various magnesium-casting operations in Europe. The plant is owned 40% by the Northern Netherlands Development Agency (NOM), 40% by Remag Recycling Gmbh and 20% by a private owner. It was reported to be struggling at the end of 2004.IcelandMagnesium production continued to remain on hold. Australian Magnesium Investments holds a 40% stake in the Icelandic Magnesium project.SerbiaBella Sterna operates a Magnetherm process plant and is estimated to have produced 4000 t in 2004.GermanyIMCO Recycling Inc’s German subsidiary VAW-IMCO Guss und Recycling Gmbh started operations at a new 15,000 t/y facility that will melt, refine and cast magnesium ingots from scrap. About 90% of the output of the plant, which is located next to the IMCO Toeging facility, will be provided to the European auto industry. The plant will start at a rate of 5,000 t/y.Norway's Hydro Magnesium has doubled magnesium recycling at Bottrop to 15,000 t/y after opening two new reprocessing lines. The company expanded Bottrop in order to meet growing demand from the domestic and regional automobile sector. The new lines, together with Hydro's Porsgrunn plant in Norway, have made the company the largest recycler of remelt magnesium in Europe, with a total production of 35,000 t/y.IsraelDead Sea Magnesium(DSM), the 65% Israeli-owned company continued to produce magnesium in 2004 and the output was 33,000 t of which half was alloy.Volkswagen of Germany continues to own 35% of DSM. Higher magnesium prices in 2004 enabled the plant to operate at a profit for the first time since starting operation.Czech RepublicMagnesium Elektron Ltd (MEL) is operating a 10,000 t/y magnesium recycling plant northwest of Prague. The plant is toll-melting magnesium scrap for customers across Europe.RussiaSolikamsk Magnesium Works(SMZ) is a large magnesium producer with a 20,000 t/y plant. Solikamsk is Russia's second-biggest magnesium producer and exports almost all of its rare-earth metal products and about 60% of its magnesium and alloys. Silvinit, which owns 56.7% of SMZ, will put close to US$10 million into the construction of two fluidised bed furnaces, with a capacity of 300 t/d of dehydrated carnallite at the SMZ plant. Construction of the furnaces will begin in 2005 and be completed in 2006. SMZ currently takes in 260,000 t/y of enriched carnallite from Silvinit and tolls 10,000 t/y of dehydrated carnallite from Avisma (in the Perm region). The modifications will boost output of magnesium and its alloys from 15,000 to 32,000 t/y to keep up with growing market demand. The new dehydrating furnaces will make it possible to cover SMZ's magnesium electrolysis capacity and produce an additional 40,000-45,000 t/y of dehydrated carnallite.The general designer on the project will be the Galurgia Institute in Perm. The two furnaces are expected to yield benefits of about Rb130 million, according to the feasibility study.Construction of the Asbest magnesium plant, which will produce magnesium from asbestos tailings, is planned to begin at the end of 2005 in the Sverdlovsk region town of Asbest. Representatives of Switzerland's Minmet Financing, one of the founders of the plant, announced the plan at a meeting in Yekaterinburg with Sverdlovsk’s Regional Governor Eduard Rossel on September 30 2004. The main investor in the project is Minmet Financing Co, which holds a controlling interest in the plant, which was set up in April 2004. Anatoly Shchelkonogov, a prominent specialist in magnesium mining and processing who has been named general director of the venture, said that the plant would require about US$300 million of investment to achieve design capacity of 60,000 t/y of magnesium. Mr Shchelkonogov said construction would be split into three stages, with the first producing 20,000 t/y.Avisma’s magnesium operations continued in 2004. The company produced over 30,000 t of magnesium, of which more than 50% was recycled magnesium that is re-used to produce titanium sponge. Avisma is located at Berezniki in the Perm region. It is Russia’s largest producer of magnesium and the world’s largest producer of titanium sponge, with about 30% of the global output.Rusal, Russia’s biggest aluminum producer, will build a plant capable of producing 40,000 t/y of metallic magnesium in the Volgograd region. The company will carry out further exploration at a bischofite field this year and will complete a feasibility study for the magnesium plant. Rusal-Bishofit won a public tender in December 2004 for the right to develop the estimated 50 Mt field in the Gorodnishchensky district of Volgograd region. Rusal will use the magnesium to produce aluminum alloys. Rusal is planning to increase the amount of alloy that it produces by up to 50%. Output of cast-house alloys rose 33.5% to 740,000 t in 2003 and accounted for 27.8% of total aluminium output. Rusal produces more than 80 aluminium alloys.UkraineThe Ukraine has two magnesium plants, Zaporoshe and Kalush. The former has a rated capacity of 40,000 t/y and the latter 10,000 t/y. Both plants were shut down during 2004. However, restoration work was proceeding at the magnesium reduction plant at Kalush, with plans to produce 500 t/mth in early 2005.ONVI is a small company producing magnesium granules from scrap magnesium.KazakhstanThe Ust Kamenogorsk magnesium plant produced an estimated 14,000 t in 2004. The plant in eastern Kazakhstan, produces high-quality titanium sponge and magnesium. Belgium's Specialty Metals owns 66% and ZAO Central Securities Depository 7.3%.South AfricaMintek and its consortium partners, Anglo American plc, power utility Eskom Holdings, and South Africa’s Department of Science and Technology, has been working on the Mintek Thermal Magnesium Project for three years. The objective is to develop a continuous thermal process so as to minimise the number of operators required and to achieve efficiency gains.AustraliaMagnesium International Ltd (MIL) of Australia has confirmed Egypt as the location for a 88,000 t/y magnesium smelter. It will be owned and operated by a special purpose company, Egyptian Magnesium Co (Emag) that is currently being established by MIL and Amiral Investments (MIL’s partner in Egypt, under Egyptian investment laws). The specific site will be inside the new port at Ain Sokhna on the Gulf of Suez Sokhna is a relatively new port but is already the most efficient port in Egypt, with high operating standards. The port operator is Sokhna Port Development Co (SPDC), an affiliate of Amiral. As a port, Sokhna has the ability to handle and rapidly unload large bulk carriers (up to 150,000 dwt) for delivery of magnesite ore, and to ship magnesium in containers worldwide.LaTrobe Magnesium(formerly Rambora Technologies Ltd.) continues to work on a process to produce magnesium metal from ash produced at the LaTrobe Valley power generation plants in Victoria. Latrobe Magnesium decided to ‘change technology ships’, and will abandon plans to use magnesium smelting processes owned by Alcan and replace them with methods developed in Russia. The switch would lower the cost of a bankable feasibility study from US$32 million to US$15.5 million and reduce the time taken for the study from 29 months to 23 months. The process is in use at four magnesium production facilities around the world and eliminates the requirement to construct an expensive pilot-plant facility in Australia. La Trobe would use an existing pilot plant in Russia rather than building one.Sydney-based Quay Magnesium Ltd is building a new 30,000 t/y magnesium alloy plant in China. The plant is being built on the premise that the majority of Chinese primary metal requires further refining and beneficiation to meet high quality European alloy specifications for use in automotive and aeronautical applications. The alloying plant will be built in Nanjing and will produce high quality magnesium alloys. Quay plans to source primary magnesium metal from a number of local Chinese producers, thereby reducing capital costs and technical risks, whilst satisfying a higher end value die-casting market.Quay's plant is relatively simple and features a molten salt refining furnace, rather than the more typical steel crucible furnace, providing for a purer alloy. There is no chemical change involved with the alloying metals and the only physical changes are those associated with the heating and cooling of magnesium metal and its alloys. Quay's primary business will be as a manufacturer and marketer of magnesium alloys, a rapidly growing market. The company plans to produce high-quality European specification alloys that are keenly sought by die-casting companies targeting the automobile and aeronautical industries. .Hella Australia, has designed the Hella HydroLUX FF 1000 Submersible Driving Lamp System to meet the needs of mining, military and emergency services vehicles, as well as rugged off-road sport-utilities and pickup trucks. The new HydroLUX is the only light of its kind on the market to use Hella's Free Form reflector technology, which features a magnesium reflector, the same material used in Formula 1 racing cars and aerospace applications. The durable and fully submersible driving light is built to withstand the most extreme conditions.JapanJapan produced no magnesium in 2004, but had a number of industries producing fabricated parts from magnesium alloys. Kasatani Co has begun mass producing electronic equipment parts using magnesium alloys and recently began shipping parts for personal digital assistants. The new business will make use of existing facilities in Osaka.. It is initially making 10,000 components per month for portable digital assistants, with plans to raise output to 100,000 unitsper month by the end of 2005 to meet anticipated demand for mobile phone and personal computer components. The company targets magnesium alloy parts sales of 300 million yen in the first year. It aims to raise sales in the business to ¥1.2 billion yen in the year ending March 2007.Asahi Tec Corp has begun mass-producing magnesium steering members for supply to Nissan Motor Co. The steering member is part of the instrument panel, which in turn is part of the cockpit module fitted in the car. Steering members made from magnesium are around 40% lighter than those made from iron. Asahi Tec is mass-producing these parts at its Yokochi plant. The plant is making the steering members at a rate of around 5,000 units/mth and shipping them to Calsonic Kansei Corp. where they are used in the assembly of cockpit modules for Nissan's new luxury Fuga.ChinaChina must be given a more definitive treatment since it now produces 68% of the world’s magnesium. The Chinese Magnesium Association (CMA) has developed a reporting system that enables us better to understand the operation of the magnesium industry in China.China's magnesium production reached about 438,000 t in 2004, up 23% from the 354,000 t reported the previous year. China's magnesium exports were also on the rise last year, owing to the increase in output. Output growth in China has been strong. China exported about 383,748 t of magnesium in 2004, up from about 280,000 t reported in 2003. Most exports were to Europe, with a total of about 120,000 t, followed by Asian countries, including Japan and Korea, which accounted for around 65,000 t. Exports to the US from China were down to about 30,000 t in 2004, compared with 42,000 t in 2003. This decrease was due to the large preliminary antidumping duties placed on Chinese magnesium imports. China's domestic consumption reached about 80,000 t in 2004.Table 2: China’s magnesium capacity and production in 20003-04(’000 tonnes)2003 2004 Change% (Y-O-Y) Capacity 600 750 25182 248 36Primary Magnesium IngotoutputMagnesium Alloy 98.8 107 8.3Magnesium Granule (Powder) 68.5 78 13.9Others 4.7 5 6.3Total magnesium output 354 438 23.7Source: Antaike CMA。

(Mg)alloys in the automobile and aerospace industries have increased significantly over the past years.The ability to predict their deformation behavior will thus be very useful in developing new and tailor existing alloys.Apart from the direct relation between elastic modulus and dispersion strengthening in alloys [1],elastic properties can also be related to other mechanical and physical properties of the material such as ductility and bond characteristics [2–4].Despite their importance,information on the elastic properties of binary Mg compounds is scarce.Among the 25compounds considered in the present study,experimental elastic properties [5–11]were available only for seven of them,i.e.MgCa 2,MgCd 3,MgCu 2,Mg 2Ge,Mg 2Pb,Mg 2Si,and Mg 2Sn.Most of the experimental measurements have been carried out using either the ultrasonic resonance technique or the pulse-echo method.Elastic constants of MgY are available from first-principles calculations in Ref.[12].In the present work elastic constants of Mg compounds in the binary Mg–X systems with X being As,Ba,Ca,Cd,Cu,Ga,Ge,La,Ni,Pb,Sb,Si,Sn and Yare obtained through first-principles calculations using the efficient stress–strain method [13].From the results thus obtained,ductility and bond characteristics of the compounds are analyzed.Electronic structures are also examined for the compounds considered in this study,to rationalize our results.2.Theory and computational detailsHerein,first-principles calculation based on the density functional theory is performed [14].The generalized gradient approximation[15]as incorporated in the Vienna ab initio simulation package [16,17]is employed.The ion–electron interaction is described using the projector augmented wave method (PAW)[18].An energy cut-off of 360eV is used.G point centered k-mesh for hexagonal closed packed structures and Monkhorst–Pack [19]for non-hexagonal structures are incorporated.A k-point mesh of 16,000,8000and 4000k-points per reciprocal atoms is used based on the number of atoms in the primitive unit cell.The k-point mesh mentioned here is generated by the Alloy Theoretical Toolkit (ATAT)code [20].The atomic arrange-ments are relaxed using the Methfessel–Paxton technique [21]for the reciprocal-space integration,following which accurate stresses of the relaxed structures in order to calculate elastic constants are calculatedusing the tetrahedron method with Blo¨chl corrections [22].Elastic constants obtained in the current work are calculated by using the Easy Elastic Constant Calculation (EECC)software devel-oped in our group based on the stress–strain method [13].The methodology used involves applying a set of strains (3¼31,32,33,34,35and 36)with 31–33and 34–36referring to normal and shear strains,respectively.The crystal lattice vectors before (Q )and after ðÞthe strains are applied are related as follows¼Q 0@1þ3136=235=236=21þ3234=235=234=21þ331A (1)In the current study,the

[32]in comparison with the available experimental data and their corresponding crystal structures [24].It can be seen that the difference between the calculated and measured data is lower than 2%.The same is depicted in Fig.1.All the data points lie close to the center line,thus presenting a good agreement between calculated and experimental data.The calculated elastic constants of 25binary Mg compounds together with their available experimental data [5–11]are shown in Table 2.Data has been plotted in Fig.2,only for the independent elastic constants of the cubic compounds (C 11,C 12,C 33,C 44)to explicitly exhibit the agreement between calculated and measured data.The difference in the data for all the compounds shown in Fig.2is less than 10–15%.The elastic constants of MgY,due to unavailable experimental data are compared to those calculated by Wu and Hu [12].The values agree reasonably well.The calculated bulk modulus of the compounds studied herein can be grouped into 4categories as shown in Fig.3.Set I consists of compounds whose bulk moduli are lower than that of pure pounds from the Mg–Ba,Mg–Ca,and Mg–La systems fall under this category.These compounds also fall under Set II which contains compounds whose bulk moduli are larger than those of their corresponding pure elements X.Based on these results it can be expected that elements belonging to group IIA or light rare-earths tend to decrease the elastic properties when alloyed with Mg.Bulk moduli of compounds in set III are between those of pure Mg and their pure elements X.Mg 2Si,Mg 2Sn,Mg 2Ge and Mg 2Pb are contained in this set.MgNi 2,Mg 2Ni and MgCu 2also belong to this category and have considerably large values of bulk modulus when compared to pure Mg.The exceptionally large elastic constants of MgNi 2,Mg 2Ni and MgCu 2compounds can be correlated to their high melting points (797 C for MgCu 2,760 C for Mg 2Ni and 1147 C for MgNi 2)and cohesive energies.Thus,elements fromtheTable 1Calculated and compiled experimental lattice parameters (a ,b ,c )(Å)of MgFig.1.Calculated and experimental lattice parameters (Å)of Mg compounds (Table 1).S.Ganeshan et al./Intermetallics 17(2009)313–318314IVA and transition group can be speculated as those which improve the elastic properties of Mg alloys.Set IV contains compounds which have bulk moduli lower than both pure Mg and their cor-responding pure elements X.In the present study,the compounds are observed to lay primarily within sets I,II and III.To further probe into the mechanical and physical properties of these compounds based on their elastic properties,we analyze their ductility using the (B /G )ratio.The relation between the elastic and plastic properties of pure metals was first proposed by Pugh [3],which was used for compounds later,for e.g.in Ref.[12].According to Pugh [3],metals having a B /G ratio greater than 1.75are ductile whereas metals having a B /G ratio less than 1.75areconsidered brittle.Fig.4plots the B /G ratio of compounds against the B /G ratio of pure elements.As it can be seen in the figure,16of the 25compounds have a B /G ratio greater than 1.75.While pure Mg has a B /G ratio of 2.05,Mg 2Si and Mg 2Ge have the least B /G ratios (1.18).To avoid crowding of the figure,we have only high-lighted compounds with extremities in their B /G ratio.From Fig.4,it can be observed that MgCd 3has a high B /G ratio (3.99),andbasedTable 2B *¼Bulk modulus.G *¼Shear modulus.E *¼Young’smodulus.Fig.2.Calculated and experimental elastic stiffness (GPa)(see Table 2forreference).Fig.3.Bulk modulus (B )of different compounds with respect to their pure elements.The numbers correspond to the name of the compounds as given in Table 1.Set I:compounds with B lower than pure Mg.Set II:compounds B higher than that of pure Mg and the corresponding pure elements.Set III:compounds with B higher than that of pure Mg,but lower than that of their corresponding pure elements.Set IV:compounds with B lower than both pure Mg as well as their corresponding pure elements.S.Ganeshan et al./Intermetallics 17(2009)313–318315on Ref.[3],can therefore be ascribed as being more ductile than brittle.Mg compounds having transition elements like,MgCu 2,Mg 2Ni and MgNi 2also fall in the category where B /G ratio is greater than 1.75and hence can be attributed to having high ductility.Mg–RE (rare-earths)and Mg–IVA compounds,as mentioned earlier,have B /G ratios less than 1.75based on which they can be expected to be brittle.This brittle nature of Mg–IVA compounds has also been reported in the past,e.g.Mabuchi et al.[25]in their work,emphasize the brittle character of Mg 2Si.To obtain a better understanding of the mechanical behavior of the compounds studied in this work,we present a correlation between their binding properties and ductility.In the current study we restrict our correlation to cubic compounds considering the structure to be of primary importance.Bond characteristics of the cubic compounds are explained herein with respect to their Cauchy pressures (C 12–C 44)[4],also see Table 3.This correlation may further be extended to tetragonal,hexagonal (C 12–C 66;C 13–C 44)and orthorhombic structures (C 12–C 66;C 13–C 55;C 23–C 44)[26].Based on Ref.[4],compounds having a more positive Cauchy pressure tend to form bonds which are primarily metallic in nature,whereas compounds having a more negative Cauchy pressure form bonds which are more angular in character.Thus,the brittle nature of Mg 2Si and Mg 2Ge,can be correlated to their negative Cauchy pressures and thereby the angular character in their bonds.Simi-larly,the ductile nature of compounds like MgCu 2can be related to their high Cauchy pressures which thereby suggest a metallic character in their bonds.We have also verified the bond charac-teristics of the aforementioned compounds by calculating their electronic structure.In view of the reader’s interest,only results pertaining to MgCu 2and Mg 2Si are incorporated in thecurrentFig.4.Ductile/brittle properties of Mg based compounds based on elastic properties (references for literature can be obtained from Table 2).Table 3Fig.5.Calculated total density of states for MgCu 2.Fig.6.Partial density of states for (a)Mg and (b)Cu.S.Ganeshan et al./Intermetallics 17(2009)313–318316work,in order to highlight their corresponding metallic and cova-lent/ionic bond characteristics.The total electron density of states (DOS)for MgCu 2and its corresponding partial density of states (PDOS)are shown in Figs.5and 6.The features of these plots agree well with the previous calculations by Ref.[27].The charge density plot of MgCu 2in the (110)plane is shown in Fig.7.Mg itself has an outer electronic configuration of 3s 2.In MgCu 2,both these outer electrons of Mg get delocalized.Cu being a tran-sition metal has both the d and s electrons delocalized.The same can be seen in the charge density plot of MgCu 2Fig.7.There is a significant depletion of charge from the outer shells of both Mg and Cu,(blue color,for interpretation of the references to color in this figure,the reader is referred to the web version of this article).The electrons on the outer orbital further become delocalized to form a ‘‘sea of electrons’’as expected in a metallic bond.As there is no overlapping between the charge densities of Mg and Cu the possibility of a strong covalent bond between them is eliminated.Also,a finite DOS at the Fermi level in Fig.5further predicts MgCu 2to be metallic.The total electron density of states for Mg 2Si and its angular-momentum decomposition plots are shown in Figs.8and 9.In agreement with previous works [28–31],our results also show a mixture of ionic and covalent characters in the bonding of Mg 2Si.The build-up of charge around silicon atom as shown in its chargedensity plot in Fig.10,(red color,for interpretation of the references to color in this figure,the reader is referred to the web version of this article)and the charge depletion around Mg atom (thin blue lines,web version)essentially mark the ionic character in the bonds between Mg and Si.However,certain level of covalency in the system is also prominent from the strong charge accumulation between the Si–Si atoms.Moreover from the apparent hybridiza-tion between Mg(s)and Si(p)below the Fermi level as shown in Fig.9,a covalent character in Mg 2Si cannot be totally ignored.The nearest neighbor distance between Mg–Si,Mg–Mg and Si–Si are calculated as 2.753,3.17and 4.49Å,using a lattice constant of 6.35Å.These distances are analogous to those calculated for the covalent/ionic b (fluorite Mg 2Si)phase in Ref.[30].Thus,a mixture of both ionic as well as covalent bonding in Mg 2Si is observed based on its electronic structure which further supports the angular character in its bonds as mentioned earlier.4.Summarizing commentsElastic constants of 25binary Mg compounds have been calcu-lated from first-principles using the efficient stress–strain method.The elastic properties of these compounds have been correlated to their ductility and bond characteristics,thereby providing an understanding of their deformation behavior.The binding proper-ties of the Mg compounds as described from their elastic properties are further confirmed from their electronicstructures.Fig.7.Charge density plot of MgCu 2in the (110)plane.Fig.8.Calculated total density of states for Mg 2Si.Fig.9.Calculated angular-momentum decomposition for Mg 2Si.Fig.10.Charge

镁合金技术的新发展:
1)耐热镁合金,耐热性差是阻碍现有镁合金广泛应用的主要原因之一,温度过高,镁合金的强度和抗蠕变性能大幅下降,使它难以作为关键零件材料在汽车等工业中得到更广泛利用目前国外将耐热镁合金研究开发作为重要突破方向,提高镁合金在150—250°C时的强度和抗蠕变性能。
2)耐蚀镁合金,严格限制镁合金中的Fe、Cu、Ni等杂质元素的含量,控制Fe /Mn比,所得到的镁合金有更好的耐蚀性。
3)阻燃镁合金,镁合金在熔炼浇注中容易发生剧烈的氧化燃烧,实践证明,溶剂保护法和SF/SO/CO/Ar等气体保护法是行之有效的阻燃方法。
4)高强高韧镁合金,在MG—ZN和MG—Y合金中加入GA、ZR可显细化晶粒,提高其抗拉强度和屈服强度。
另外,通过快速凝固、粉末冶金、高挤压比及等通道角挤(ECAE)等方法,也可以使镁合金的晶粒处理得很细,从而获得高强度、高塑性甚至超塑性。
5)变形镁合金,经变形的镁合金可获得更高的强度,更好的延展性及多样化的力学性能,可以满足不同场合结构件的使用要求。
6)镁合金熔炼技术,通常情况下用SF6气体熔炼镁合金,但其温室效应是CO2的23900倍,需找到可代替的熔炼气体。
7)镁合金的成形技术,常用成形方法有压铸,半固态铸造、挤压铸造、挤压、扎制等,其中,镁合金80%是通过铸造方法获得。
各种功能性的镁合金在工业中都发挥着巨大的作用。
镁合金具有一些列优良的性能,在汽车工业,通讯电子业,航空航天业等领域得到了日益广泛的应用,镁合金及其成形技术也得到快速发展,镁合金的性能不断得到提高,镁合金熔炼技术、成形技术和表面处理技术等领域得到不断发展、新的技术和装备也不断被开发和应用,展示了镁合金的光明前景。
我国有丰富的镁资源,但是在技术应用方面与国外还有一定的差距,我们应该把我国的镁资源优势转化为技术、经济优势。
促进国民经济的发展。
