Abstract A new Mg-2Zn-0.3 Ca-0.2 Ce-0.1 Mn 1 (ZXEM2000) alloy and a multi-stage
homogenization process have been designed and developed based on CALculation of …

Lightweight sheet alloys with superior mechanical performance such as high strength,
ductility and formability at room temperature (RT) are desirable for high volume automotive …

Given the key role of calcium in future magnesium alloy development, the present work
investigates a modified commercial AZ31B alloy with 0.3 wt% Ca processed by …

While cast magnesium components have been extensively used in the automotive industry,
only niche applications are known to exist for magnesium sheets to this date. This is …

Abstract Mg–1.3 Al–0.8 Zn–0.7 Mn–0.5 Ca (wt.%)(AZMX1110) alloy sheet produced by low-
cost twin-roll casting process exhibits excellent room temperature formability with a large …

We have developed a strong Mg–6Zn-0.2 Ca (wt.%) based alloy sheet with good room-
temperature formability via micro-alloying of Al and Mn. The Al and Mn micro-alloyed Mg …

We clarified the role of Zn on the mechanical properties and texture evolution in Mg-1.2 Al-
0.5 Ca-0.4 Mn-xZn (wt.%, x= 0, 0.8 and 1.6) alloy sheets fabricated by twin-roll casting and …

An intense texture is usually developed in conventional Mg alloys after deformation,
resulting in unsatisfactory formability at room temperature. In the present work, a low-alloyed …

A cast and homogenized Mg–4Zn–0.5 Ca–0.16 Mn (wt.%) alloy is hot forged at different
temperatures (523–623K) employing a new 'hard plate hot forging'technique. During the …

Addition of 0.1 at% Zn to the Mg–0.5 Ca–0.1 Zr alloy is found to significantly improve the
stretch formability and ductility. The remarkable improvement in the stretch formability and …
