Abstract

An exemplary embodiment of the present invention relates to a magnesium alloy sheet and a manufacturing method thereof. The exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a magnesium alloy sheet including 0.5 to 2.1 wt % of Al, 0.5 to 1.5 wt % of Zn, 0.1 to 1.0 wt % of Ca, and a balance of Mg and inevitable impurities, with respect to a total of 100 wt % of the magnesium alloy sheet.

Claims (43)

1. A magnesium alloy sheet comprising:

0.5 to 2.1 wt % of Al, 0.5 to 1.5 wt % of Zn, 0.1 to 1.0 wt % of Ca, and a balance of Mg and inevitable impurities, with respect to a total of 100 wt % of the magnesium alloy sheet,

wherein the magnesium alloy sheet has an Erickson value of 7.7 mm to 9.8 mm at room temperature.

2. The magnesium alloy sheet of claim 1 , further comprising

1 wt % or less of Mn with respect to the total of 100 wt % of the magnesium alloy sheet.

3. The magnesium alloy sheet of claim 2 , wherein

the magnesium alloy sheet has a calcium element segregated at grain boundaries.

4. The magnesium alloy sheet of claim 3 , wherein

An area fraction of a non-basal grain is 20% or more with respect to a total area of 100% of the magnesium alloy sheet.

5. The magnesium alloy sheet of claim 4 , wherein

a microtexture of the magnesium alloy sheet has a particle diameter of 5 to 20 μm.

6. The magnesium alloy sheet of claim 5 , wherein

the magnesium alloy sheet has a twin texture or a second phase, and

an area fraction of the twin structure or the second phase is 0 to 30% with respect to the total area of 100% of the magnesium alloy sheet.

7. A manufacturing method of a magnesium alloy sheet of claim 1 , the method comprising:

preparing a molten alloy containing 0.5 to 2.1 wt % of Al, 0.5 to 1.5 wt % of Zn, 0.1 to 1.0 wt % of Ca, and a balance of Mg and inevitable impurities, with respect to a total of 100 wt % of the molten alloy;

preparing a casting material by casting the molten alloy;

preparing a rolled material by rolling the casting material; and

final annealing of the rolled material,

wherein the preparing of the rolled material by rolling the casting material includes intermediate annealing of the rolled material,

wherein during the intermediate annealing of the rolled material, a frequency of intermediate annealing is in a range of ⅙ to ⅛, and

wherein the frequency of intermediate annealing equals the number of intermediate annealing/total number of rolling.

8. The manufacturing method of claim 7 , wherein

in the preparing of the rolled material by rolling the casting material, rolling is performed at a reduction ratio of 50% or less (excluding 0%) per rolling.

9. The manufacturing method of claim 8 , wherein

in the preparing of the rolled material by rolling the casting material, the casting material is rolled once, twice, or more.

10. The manufacturing method of claim 9 , wherein

in the preparing of the rolled material by rolling the casting material, the rolling is performed in a temperature range of 200 to 350° C.

11. The manufacturing method of claim 10 , wherein

the preparing of the rolled material by rolling the casting material includes intermediate annealing of the rolled material.

12. The manufacturing method of claim 11 , wherein

in the intermediate annealing of the rolled material, a number of intermediate annealing is in a range of ⅙ to ⅛,

wherein the number of intermediate annealing=number of intermediate annealing/total number of rolling.

13. The manufacturing method of claim 12 , wherein

in the intermediate annealing of the rolled material, the intermediate annealing is performed at a cumulative reduction ratio of 50% or more of the rolled material.

14. The manufacturing method of claim 13 , wherein

in the intermediate annealing of the rolled material, the intermediate annealing is performed in a temperature range of 300 to 500° C.

15. The manufacturing method of claim 14 , wherein

in the intermediate annealing of the rolled material, the intermediate annealing is performed for 30 to 600 min.

16. The manufacturing method of claim 7 , wherein

in the final annealing of the rolled material, the final annealing is performed in a temperature range of 350 to 500° C.

17. The manufacturing method of claim 16 , wherein

in the final annealing of the rolled material, the final annealing is performed for 30 to 600 min.
