Influence of extrusion parameters on microstructure, texture, and second-phase particles in an Al-Mg-Si alloy

The extrusion parameters greatly influence the microstructures of aluminum alloys, and further determine the mechanical properties of the final products. In this work, using a self-designed experimental device, a series of extrusion experiments was conducted to investigate the influence of the extrusion parameters on the microstructure, crystallographic texture, and second-phase particles in the Al-Mg-Si aluminum alloy (AA6N01), which is widely...
