As the lightest metal structural materials, Mg alloys have great application potential in
transportation, aerospace, and biomedicine. However, the further application is hindered by …

The effect of different Zn concentrations (0 wt.%, 1 wt.%, 3 wt.%, and 6 wt.%) on the
microstructure, corrosion property, and mechanical property of Mg-0.3 Sc-xZn (x= 0 wt.%, 1 …

High-strength Mg alloys have historically suffered from a challenge in achieving good
ductility. Here, we report an asymmetric gradient nanostructure design prepared by …

Cyclic deformation behaviors and damage mechanisms of pure Zr were systemically
investigated at fully reversed strain-controlled tension–compression fatigue experiments …

The poor corrosion resistance of magnesium and magnesium alloys limited their industry
applications, especially attributed to the loose and porous corrosion product film. Moreover …

Micro-alloying magnesium (Mg) alloys by rare earth elements is an efficient method for
enhancing their mechanical properties. This work adds minor Yb (0.1, 0.3, 0.5 wt%) into Mg …

In this work, a Mg-Zn-Y (ZW31) alloy with good plasticity was introduced into 10 μm 10 vol%
SiCp/AZ91 composite materials (PMMCs) via the extrusion compound method, and then the …

Gradient ultrafine-grained (UFG) Mg-2Gd-0.4 Zr (wt%) alloy sheet, with a UFG layer of about
118 nm on the topmost treated surface, was fabricated by sliding friction treatment (SFT) …

This study investigates the impact of strain rate on the twinning process (ie, twin nucleation,
twin propagation, and twin growth) and associated mechanical behavior during …

This investigation was conducted to explore the impact of extrusion temperature on the
microstructure, mechanical properties, and osteogenic differentiation of the as-extruded Mg …
