In the present study, the strength and ductility of the as-extruded new alloy are both
significantly improved at room temperature by adding 1.2–1.4% elements to the pure Mg …

Abstract Microalloying additions to Mg-Zn base alloys can refine precipitation and improve
hardening, but their effect on the microstructure at the grain boundary regions are seldom …

The microstructure and mechanical properties of a Mg-Zn-La alloy with and without Ca were
investigated in the present study. Results indicated that small addition of Ca in Mg-Zn-La …

Abstract Effects of samarium (Sm) content (0, 2.0, 3.5, 5.0, 6.5 wt%) on microstructure and
mechanical properties of Mg–0.5 Zn–0.5 Zr alloy under as-cast and as-extruded states were …

The effects of cerium-based rare earth (RE) addition and hot deformation via extrusion on
the microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-0.5 Zn-0.5 Zr alloy were studied. It was …

Heterogeneous bimodal microstructure and its formation mechanism of Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr alloy
during isothermal compression at 450° C and 0.001 s− 1 was investigated in detail. Based …

The phase evolution in (88%-91%) Mg-8% Sn-1% Zn-X (X= Al, Mn and/or Ce) system was
analyzed via CALPHAD method and simulations were used in precise selection of the …

Interfaces such as twin boundaries, stacking faults and grain boundaries often play an
important role in controlling mechanical properties of metals through interaction with …

Synergistic effects of rare earth elements (RE) and Zn have a major impact on the properties
of ternary Mg-RE-Zn alloys. This study illuminates their dependence on the solute ratio by …

Magnesium, the lightest structural metal, has limited industrial application due to its poor
formability at room temperature. However, the mechanism for the effect of alloying elements …
