Hardness evolution of AZ80 magnesium alloy processed by HPT at different temperatures

Discs of an extruded AZ80 magnesium alloy were processed by high-pressure torsion (HPT) using 6.0 GPa up to 10 turns at different temperatures (296 K and 473 K). The disc surfaces and cross-sectional planes were examined before and after processing using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Vicker...
