Item Corrosion of ECAPed magnesium alloys and its background: A Review(Chulalognkorn University, 2019) Naik, G.M.; SannaYellappa, N.; Kumar, S.S.S.The aim of this review article is to provide a brief mechanistic overview of magnesium alloys, equal channel angular pressing and corrosion behavior of un-ECAPed and ECAPed Mg alloys. The considerate of the corrosion processes of ECAPed Mg alloys builds upon interpretation of the corrosion of fine-grain magnesium alloys. This provides an understanding of the effect of grain size on corrosion of Mg alloys. This deep understanding is essential as a foundation if we are to produce corrosion-resistant magnesium alloys. Considerable has previously been accomplished, but there is enormous scope for development. This present concise review can provide a foundation for further, much desirable research. © 2019 Chulalognkorn University.Item Effect of ECAP Die Angles on Microstructure Mechanical Properties and Corrosion Behavior of AZ80 Mg Alloy(Springer New York LLC barbara.b.bertram@gsk.com, 2019) Naik, G.M.; Narendranath, S.; Kumar, S.S.S.In this article, the effect of channel angles on material properties was investigated during equal channel angular pressing of AZ80 magnesium alloy using processing route R at 325 °C processing temperature. Channel angles of 90° and 110° and common corner angle 30° have been considered for this study. It has been revealed that the channel angle has a significant influence on deformation homogeneity, microhardness, ultimate tensile strength, ductility and corrosion behavior of Mg alloys. Investigation with reference to as-received AZ80 Mg alloy indicates 18.47% improvement in UTS and 76.07% enhancement in ductility after processing through 3P-90° and 2P-110° ECAP, respectively. Also, the corrosion rate reduces to 89.47% after processing the sample with 3P-110° ECAP die. © 2019, ASM International.
