Ultralight Mg-Li alloys offer promising applications across various fields.Mg-Li alloys enriched with Al and Zn hold theoretical potential for achieving excellent mechanical strength and corrosion resistance.However,the structural and performance characteristics of such Mg-Li alloys,particularly after thermo-mechanical processing,remain inadequately explored and understood.This study investigated the mi-crostructural evolution of a Mg-9Li-5Al-4Zn alloy after friction stir processing and its consequent effects on the mechanical and corrosion performance.The grain size of the alloy was effectively refined and sta-bilized during friction stir processing at various heat inputs.The yield strength of the alloy increased by 86.4%after friction stir processing under the highest heat input condition,which was attributed to fine grain strengthening,solid solution strengthening and dispersion strengthening.Concurrently,the alloy ex-perienced a slight decrease in elongation after the friction stir processing.The alloy subjected to friction stir processing with the highest heat input exhibited a minimal corrosion current density of 6.10 x 10-6 A/cm2,which was only 25%of the base metal.The enhanced anti-corrosion properties can be attributed to the dispersion and distribution of precipitated particles induced by friction stir processing,which hin-dered the micro-galvanic corrosion and promoted the generation of a compact surface film,leading to minimal and uniform corrosion.This investigation can be significant for understanding the metallurgical mechanisms and performance evolution of Mg-Li alloys during thermomechanical processes.
