Abstract: A Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr (mass fraction, %) alloy was prepared by conventional ingot metallurgy (I/M). The microstructure differences in as-cast and solution-treated alloys were investigated. Sliding tribological behaviors of the as-cast and solution-treated alloys were investigated under oil lubricant condition by pin-on-disc configuration. The wear loss and friction coefficients were measured at a load of 40 N and sliding speeds of 30-300 mm/s with a sliding distance of 5000 m at room temperature. The results show that the as-cast alloy is mainly composed of α-Mg solid solution, the lamellar 14H-type long period stacking ordered (LPSO) structure within matrix, and β-[(Mg,Zn)3Gd] phase. However, most of the β-phase transforms to X-phase with 14H-type LPSO structure after solution heat treatment at 773 K for 35 h (T4). The solution-treated alloy presents low wear-resistance, because the hard β-phase is converted into thermally-stable, ductile and soft X-Mg12GdZn phase with LPSO structure in the alloy.

1 Introduction
Magnesium alloys have been attractive as the lightest structural components in automotive industry with a growing trend toward reducing energy consumption and air pollution, due to their attractive properties such as low density, high specific strength, ease of recycling and better vibration-damping capacity [1,2]. However, the poor wear performance and corrosion resistance of Mg alloy greatly limit its wide structural applications [3,4]. A number of techniques have been developed to improve the wear resistance (WR) of Mg alloys such as laser surface melting treatment and ultrasonic nanocrystalline surface modification (UNSM) [5,6] and cryogenic treatment (CT) [7].
At present, rare earth magnesium alloys have been developed for its high strength, high temperature resistance and creep resistance, which offer alternative candidate for applications in aerospace and automotive industries. Mg-RE-Zn alloys have attracted more and more attention because of solid solution strengthening, aging strengthening and the formation of long period stacking ordered (LPSO) structure [8-18]. LPSO structures can act as hardening phases, which will improve comprehensive mechanical properties in Mg-RE-Zn alloys [8-11]. Published reports on the friction and wear behaviors of Mg-RE-Zn alloy are quite limited. AN et al [19] performed dry sliding tests on as-cast Mg-Zn-2Y alloys using a pin-on-disc configuration. Their results revealed that Mg-Zn-2Y exhibited good wear resistance compared with AZ91 for applied loads in excess of 80 N. ZHANG et al [20] investigated the dry sliding wear of as-cast Mg-Zn-Y alloy using block-on-wheel system. They revealed that the Mg-Zn-Y quasicrystal materials exhibited the lowest friction coefficients and the best wear resistance at all applied loads when the Y content was 2% (mole fraction). LIU et al [7] investigated the wear behavior of Mg-1.5Zn-0.15Gd alloy before and after cryogenic treatment (CT) by dry sliding wear test. Their experimental results showed that the wear resistance of the alloys has been significantly improved after CT. HU et al [17] conducted dry sliding tests on as-cast and cast+T6 Mg-11Y-5Gd-2Zn alloy using a ball-on-plate configuration. They revealed that the wear rate of as-cast alloy is higher than that of cast+T6 alloy. CAO et al [18] investigated the sliding friction and wear behaviors of Mg-11Y-5Gd-2Zn-0.5Zr (mass fraction, %) alloy were investigated under oil lubricant condition by pin-on-disk configuration. Test results indicated that the hard and thermally stable Mg12(Y,Gd)Zn phase with long-period stacking ordered structure in the alloy presented significant wear resistance. But so far the friction and wear behaviors of Mg-Gd-Zn-Zr alloys with LPSO structure have not yet been reported.
In the present work, a Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn- 0.54Zr alloy was produced by conventional ingot metallurgy (I/M) technique. The effect of solid solution treatment on the as-cast microstructures, especially the lamellar 14H-type LPSO structure, mechanical properties and tribological behaviors were studied in I/M and DC alloys.
2 Experimental
The alloy used in this work was Mg-14.28Gd- 2.44Zn-0.54Zr (mass fraction, %). Firstly, pure Mg was melted in an electric resistance furnace with a mild steel crucible under a protective gas (0.3% SF6 and 99.7% CO2, volume fraction). Secondly, pure Zn metal and Mg-25Gd (mass fraction, %) were melted at about 973 K. Thirdly, Mg-30Zr (mass fraction, %) was added into the melt at about 1053 K. Finally, the melt was poured at about 1023 K into the mild steel mold preheated to 473 K. The alloy ingots were cooled in air, and cut into small specimens by electric spark linear cutting. The specimens were solution-treated at 772 K for 35 h in a SX2-8-10-type high-temperature heat treatment furnace and then immediately quenched in cold water. Actual chemical compositions of these alloys were determined by an inductively coupled plasma analyzer (PerkinElmer, Plasma 400).
Sliding wear tests were carried out in a pin-on-disc wear testing apparatus (model: MMW-1A, multi- functional vertical friction and wear tester) under varying sliding speeds at a fixed applied load of 40 N. The Mg alloy cylindrical pin specimens were 32 mm in length and 10 mm in diameter. A reciprocating grey cast iron plate of dimensions 60 mm×150 mm×10 mm with a hardness of HB 210 was counterpart. The stroke length was 80 mm. The contact surfaces were lubricated with synthetic engine oil (15W/40SG). The wear loss and friction coefficients were measured with a constant sliding distance of 5000 m at room temperature.
The specimens for microstructures analyses, etched by 4% HNO3 and 96% ethanol, were observed by the Zeiss reversal optical microscope (OM, Axio Observer A1) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM, FEI SIRION 200) at 5-20 kV equipped with an Oxford energy disperse X-ray spectrometer (EDS).
Tensile tests at room temperature were carried out using a Zwick T1-FR020TN A50-type electronic universal testing machine at a strain rate of 1.67×10-3 s-1. Moreover, Vickers hardness tests were measured by a HV-30 Vickers hardness tester with a 5 kg load for 30 s.
3 Results and discussion
3.1 Microstructure
3.1.1 Chemical composition
The designed composition of studied alloy was Mg-13.96Gd-2.32Zn-0.6Zr. The actual chemical composition of the alloy was Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn- 0.54Zr (mass fraction, %). Therefore, the difference between the actual and the designed compositions was little, which satisfied the need.
3.1.2 As-cast microstructure
Figure 1 shows the OM and SEM images of the as-cast Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloy. The microstructure of the as-cast alloy is confirmed to be composed of α-Mg matrix, the lamellae and β-phase as secondary eutectic phase [15]. The lamellae within α-Mg matrix have a 14H-LPSO structure, as reported by WU et al [14]. EDS spectrum illustrates that β-phase is (Mg,Zn)3Gd [14].
3.1.3 Solution-treated microstructure
Figure 2 shows the OM and SEM images of the Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloy solution-treated at 773 K for 35 h. It indicates that the lamellae still exist within matrix. Moreover, a novel lamellar X-phase (the gray particles in Fig. 2(b)) is transformed from the dendritical β-(Mg,Zn)3Gd phase (the white particles in Fig. 2(b)) [12]. The composition is Mg-(8.37±1.0)Zn- (11.32±1.0)Gd (mole fraction, %) and it has a 14H-type LPSO structure like lamellae within matrix. In conclusion, the microstructure of Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn- 0.54Zr alloy solution-treated at 773 K for 35 h is mainly composed of α-Mg matrix, X-phase at grain boundaries, lamellae within matrix and residual β-(Mg,Zn)3Gd phase.
3.2 Room-temperature mechanical properties
Figure 3 shows room temperature mechanical properties of the as-cast and solution-treated Mg- 14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloys. The results indicate that the comprehensive mechanical properties can be improved after solution heat treatment. The ultimate tensile strength (σb) , the tensile yield strength (σs), elongations (δ) and Vickers hardness of the as-cast alloy are σb=219.9 MPa, σs=139.2 MPa, δ=4.2% and HV=87.9, respectively. After solution treatment at 773 K for 35 h, the σb and δ are improved to 235.1 MPa and 12.7%, respectively. While, the σs and HV decrease to 107.6 MPa and 76.5 due to the reduction of the volume fraction of the harder β-phase and formation of ductile X-phase with 14H-LPSO structure [9].

3.3 Tribological properties
Figure 4 shows variation of friction coefficient (FC) with the sliding time at constant speed of 300 mm/s and load of 40 N for as-cast and solution-treated Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloys. It indicates that variation laws of FCs for the as-cast and solution-treated alloys are similar. The FC curves present an initial high friction and then turn into a process of oscillation downward till the steady vibration. However, the average FC values at constant speed of 300 mm/s and load of 40 N are found to be 0.045 and 0.076 for the as-cast and solution-treated alloys, respectively. The FC of solution-treated alloy is clearly higher than that of the as-cast alloy, possibly due to the lower hardness and the higher ductility causing a larger contact area between pin specimen and cast iron.

Fig. 5 Effects of sliding speed on wear rate of as-cast and solution-treated Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloys
Figure 5 shows the effects of sliding speed on wear rates of the as-cast and solution-treated Mg-14.28Gd- 2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloys. The sliding speeds are 30, 90, 180, 300 mm/s. It shows that the wear rates (Wr) decrease with increasing sliding speed from 30 mm/s to 300 mm/s both in as-cast and solution-treated alloys. Furthermore, the Wr increases after solution treatment. Generally, the wear rate increases with the increase of the testing load (FN), as shown in Archard law [21]:
Wr=KFN/HV (1)
where K represents the wear coefficient, and HV is the microhardness of Mg alloy. As shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 5, the Vickers hardness of the solution-treated alloy is lower than that of the as-cast alloy, therefore, Wr of the former is higher than that of the latter with the same FN (40 N). The relative wear resistance can be expressed as the reciprocal of wear rate [22]. In conclusion, the wear resistance of alloy decreases after the solution treatment.
3.4 Analysis of worn surface
Figure 6 shows SEI-SEM and BSE-SEM images of worn surfaces of as-cast Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloy at load of 40 N with a sliding distance of 5000 m at sliding speed of 30-300 mm/s. As shown in Figs. 6(a), (b), (d), (e), (g) and (h), numerous long worn grooves parallel to sliding direction are observed. Therefore, the worn surfaces in as-cast Mg-Gd-Zn-Zr alloys exhibit typical features of abrasive wear, which are similar to Mg-Zn-Gd alloys [7]. In the as-cast Mg-Gd-Zn-Zr alloys, WU et al [14] reported that the harder β-(Mg,Zn)3Gd phases at grain boundaries act as main fracture sources during tensile tests. Abrasive wear is a process wherein the abrasive particles remove from the material by way of cutting or plowing when they slide on the soft material [23]. Therefore, parts of the harder β-phases can be removed from the material resulting in worn grooves during abrasive wear, as shown in Figs. 6(c), (f), (i). Moreover, the β-(Mg,Zn)3Gd phases are distorted and deformed and broken nearby the worn grooves, which results in the delamination nearby the β-(Mg,Zn)3Gd phases, due to extrusion and shear effect, as shown in Figs. 6(c) and (f). The grooves become shallower and the surface fracture area decreases with the increase of sliding speed from 30 to 300 mm/s, which results in the wear rate decreasing (see Fig. 5). Meanwhile, it is noted that there is surface oxidation in the form of oxide layer, as shown in Figs. 6(g), (h) and (i), which is attributed to elevated temperature at high sliding speed (300 mm/s). Part of oxide layer being broken on the worn surface is resulted from squeezing and shearing effect in the dynamic load conditions.
Figure 7 shows SEI-SEM and BSE-SEM images of worn surfaces of the Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloy solution-treated at 773 K for 35 h at load of 40 N with a sliding distance of 5000 m at sliding speed of 30-300 mm/s. Similar to that of the as-cast alloy, there are some phenomena as follows, as shown in Figs. 7(a), (b), (d), (e), (g) and (h): 1) Numerous long worn grooves parallel to sliding direction are observed; 2) The grooves become shallower and the number of grooves decreases with the increase of sliding speed from 30 mm/s to 300 mm/s, which results in the wear rate decreasing (see Fig. 5); 3) There is surface oxidation in the form of oxide layer (see Fig. 7(h)). Dissimilarly, there are severe plastic deformation (SPD) in ductile X-phase, which will result in the breakup in larger X-phase at last, as shown in Figs. 7(c), (f) and (i). Moreover, little residual β-(Mg,Zn)3Gd phases appear (see Figs. 7(c), (d) and (i)). Besides the lower hardness and larger contact area, the surface roughness due to tiny and dispersive β-(Mg,Zn)3Gd phase particles is plausibly responsible for the higher friction coefficient of solution-treated alloy. Delamination occurs in the softer α-Mg matrix (see Fig. 7(h)), and is far away from the harder β-(Mg,Zn)3Gd phases. The reason that the wear resistance of the Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloy decreases after the solution treatment, is mainly due to the obvious decrease of volume fraction of the harder β-phase and formation of ductile X-phase with 14H-LPSO structure.

4 Conclusions
1) The as-cast Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloy is composed of α-Mg solid solution, the lamellar14H-type LPSO structure formed in α-Mg matrix, and β [(Mg,Zn)3Gd] phase as secondary eutectic phase. The microstructure of the Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn- 0.54Zr alloy solution-treated at 773 K for 35 h is confirmed to be composed of α-Mg matrix, X-phase at grain boundaries, lamellae within matrix and residual (Mg,Zn)3Gd phase.
2) The solution-treated Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn- 0.54Zr alloy emerges high friction coefficient and wear rate, compared with the as-cast alloy. With the increase of sliding speed from 30 to 300 mm/s, the wear rate decreases for both alloys.
3) Both of the worn surfaces of the as-cast and solution-treated Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr alloys exhibit typical feature of abrasive wear with grooves.
4) The wear resistance of alloy decreases after the solution treatment, due to the obvious decrease of the volume fraction of the harder β-phase and formation of ductile X-phase with 14H-LPSO structure.

摘 要:利用传统的熔铸法制备Mg-14.28Gd-2.44Zn-0.54Zr合金,研究铸态和固溶态合金的微结构。利用销-盘装置研究铸态和固溶态合金的室温润滑滑动摩擦磨损行为研究。在外载荷为40 N,滑动速度为30~300 mm/s以及滑行路程为5000 m情况下,测量磨损率和摩擦因数。研究结果表明:铸态合金主要由α-Mg固溶体、分布在基体内的层片状的14H型长周期结构(LPSO)和β-[(Mg,Zn)3Gd]相组成。经过温度为773 K固溶处理35 h后,大量的β相转变成具有14H型X相 LPSO结构。由于固溶处理后大量β相转变为热稳定的韧性X-Mg12GdZn长周期结构相,固溶合金呈现较低的抗磨损能力。
