Improving mechanical properties of ZK60 magnesium alloy by cryogenic treatment before hot extrusion

Few studies of cryogenic treatment were focused on nonferrous alloys, such as magnesium alloy. In this work, the effect of cryogenic treatment (77 K) before extrusion on microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 alloy was investigated. The results showed that many fine G.P. zones were formed...
