The effect of roller burnishing on Vickers’ hardness and positron lifetimes in the AZ91HP magnesium alloy was studied. The microhardness increases with an increase in the burnishing force and with a decrease in the feed.

It was found that the increase in microhardness was related to the increase in the concentration of vacancy clusters.
