Abstract

The article presents the results of an investigation of microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy WE43 processed by rotary swaging. The resulting microstructure is characterized by an average size of structural elements of 0.5 – 0.8 μm. The grain refinement leads to an increase in the strength of the alloy to 393 – 416 MPa while the tensile elongation stays at a level of 7 – 12.5%. The microstructure produced by rotary swaging does not lead to deterioration of the resistance of the alloy to electrochemical and chemical corrosion.
