Conclusions
-
1.
The temperature and rate dependences of τ c in Mg single crystals were determined for basal slip in the temperature range −196 to +27°C and for rates 8·10−4 to 2·10−2 sec−1, respectively.
-
2.
The thermodynamical parameters characterizing the τ c temperature and rate dependence were found. It was shown that the activation volume increased gradually from 10−20 to 3.5·10−20 cm3 in the temperature range −196 to +27°C. The potential barrier height was 5·10−2 eV.
-
3.
An analysis of the obtained results and the electron microscopic data indicate that the mechanism governing τ c is the surmounting of local defect impurities by the dislocations.
-
4.
It is shown that the deformation hardening curves in the temperature range −196 to +27°C can be represented in two stages, A and B.
