Abstract
In a recent study, the microstructures and mechanical properties of AM80-xSn magnesium alloys with semi solid casting and hot extrusion process were investigated. With increasing Sn content, the amount of ${\beta}$(Mg2Sn) phase increased, while the ${\alpha}-Mg$ dendritic size decreased. The hardness was increased by the Mg2Sn as the Sn content increased. With increasing Sn content, permanent mold cast and semi solid cast AM80 Mg alloy showed less reduction of hardness and also of extruded AM80 Mg alloy after annealing. In the case of the mechanical properties, the extruded semi solid casting AM80 Mg alloy showed higher tensile strength and yield strength with increasing Sn content compared to the extruded permanent mold cast AM80 Mg alloy at room temperature.
