Low absolute strength becomes one major obstacle for the wider applications of low/no rare-
earth (RE) containing Mg alloys. This review firstly demonstrates the importance of grain …

As the lightest structural metal and one of the most abundant metallic elements on earth,
magnesium (Mg) has been used as an “industrial metal” for lightweighting in the …

Poor formability at room temperature (RT) has been the main bottleneck for a wider range of
applications of concentrated Mg–Al–Ca (–Zn) sheet alloys. Here, we report that RT stretch …

High reactivity and ease of ignition are the major obstacles for the application of Mg alloys in
aerospace. Thus, the ignition mechanisms of Mg alloys should be investigated …

A dispersion of Guinier Preston (GP) zones yields attractive mechanical properties in
wrought magnesium alloys. However, the precipitation of GP zones has been reported in a …

As a new class of heat-treatable magnesium alloys, the low-alloyed Mg-Al-Ca-Mn alloy has
great engineering potential because of its excellent extrudability and high strength by the …

High-temperature solid-solution is indispensable for bake-hardenable dilute Mg alloys,
which generally induces grain coarsening. Herein, we report extraordinary thermal stability …

In this work, nonisothermal dissolution of intermetallic Mg 17 Al 12 in Mg-Al alloy has been
firstly studied via Differential Scanning Calorimetry-DSC, X-Ray Diffraction-XRD and …

To enable broader applications of magnesium alloy sheets, one requirement is to achieve
comparable strength-formability balance with that of aluminum-based alloys. Based on the …

The poor formability of magnesium alloys at room temperature remains an obstacle to their
wider application in industry. In a previous study, the present authors' group optimized the …
