Friction-stir welded (FSW) magnesium alloy joints frequently fracture at thermo-mechanically affected zone (TMAZ), and the joints exhibit unsatisfactory welding efficiency and ductility. The TMAZ is considered as the weakest region of the entire joint. Enhance the mechanical properties of TMAZ can improve the performance of the welded joint. In this work, subsequent aging treatment and pre-strain of 3% along the weld seam were conducted on the FSW AZ61 magnesium alloy joint. The microstructure of the TMAZ is characterized by abundant nanoscale second phase particles and {10–12} twins. The reduced basal texture intensity decreased the anisotropy of plastic deformation. The welded joint showed a good synergic of welding efficiency (96%) and ductility (20%). The enhanced strength is attributed to the blocking effect of nanoscale particles and grain/twin boundaries to dislocation movement. The increasing of twin boundaries is the main reason for the improvement of work hardening ability and ductility during tensile deformation. This work demonstrated that introducing {10–12} twins and nanoscale particles into TMAZ is an effective way to improve the balance of strength and ductility of the welded joint due to the synergistic effect of multiple strengthening and toughening mechanisms. |
