Effects of Post-Weld Heat Treatment on the Microstructure and Mecanical Properties of the AZ91 Laser Welded Joint

Plates of AZ91 magnesium alloy were butt-welded using a CO2 laser. The non-equilibrium solidification of the laser-melted metal caused fragmentation of the weld microstructure as well as the supersaturation of a solid solution of aluminium in magnesium, which enabled the T5 ageing of the weld. The w...
