Abstract A high strength Mg-11.7 Gd-4.9 Y-0.3 Zr (wt%) alloy with a weak tension-
compression yield asymmetry has been successfully developed by pre-deformation …

Abstract Effects of 0.5 wt% La addition on microstructures and mechanical properties of a
traditional hot-extruded Mg–9Gd–3Y–0.5 Zr alloy were thoroughly investigated in this work …

Abstract The Mg–11Gd–4.5 Y–1Nd–1.5 Zn–0.5 Zr (wt%) alloy was pre-aged prior to hot
extrusion. Pre-ageing treatment introduced uniform distribution of plate-like Mg 5 RE …

Abstract An as-extruded Mg-11.5 Gd-4.5 Y-1.5 Zn-0.4 Zr (wt%) alloy with an excellent
strength-ductility balance has been successfully developed by pre-annealing and hot …

Microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg–10Gd–2Y–0.5 Zr (wt.%) alloy in a series of
tempers, including as-cast, cast-T4, cast-T6 and extruded-T5 conditions, have been …

Abstract Mg-xGd-3Y-yNd-0.5 Zr alloys (x= 6, 8, 10; y= 0.5, 1 wt%) were prepared by hot
extrusion, pre-annealing and ageing treatments. After hot extrusion, the alloys exhibit a …

Abstract A new Mg-5.5 Gd-3Y-1Sm-0.5 Zr (1Sm) alloy was developed. The deformation
behavior and microstructure evolution of the Mg-Gd-Y-(Sm)-Zr alloys during hot …

Through studying the effect of initial microstructure on the precipitation behavior,
microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of Mg-6Gd-4Y-0.5 Zn-0.5 Zr alloy, an …

Thermo-mechanical treatments, through combined action of cold or hot work and heat
treatment, were performed on a Mg–6Gd–2Nd–0.5 Zr alloy to investigate their effect on the …

The present work focuses on the effects of rare earth (RE= Gd and Er) contents on the
microstructural evolution and mechanical performance of Mg-Gd-Er-Zr alloys. Three different …
