There has been a great interest in evaluating the potential of severe plastic deformation
(SPD) to improve the performance of magnesium for biological applications. However …

High-pressure torsion (HPT) was used to evaluate the effect of straining on the
electrochemical properties of a ZK60 magnesium alloy. The samples were processed using …

Magnesium alloys have better biocompatibility and biodegradability than conventional
biomedical metal materials, but the corrosion resistance is so poor that the implant loses its …

An attempt was made to develop a corrosion-resistant, high-strength Mg alloy using multi-
directional forging (MDF). An extruded alloy as well as pure Mg was MDFed at temperatures …

A super-high strength Mg–9Li–1Al (LA91) alloy with ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 312
MPa and specific strength of∼ 215 kNmkg− 1 was successfully achieved via a combined …

To make good use of the barrier effect of graphene nanosheets and to reduce the uneven
dispersion of zinc particles caused by its sedimentation, coating with alternate structure …

In this paper, ultrafine-grained pure aluminum was first fabricated by heavy extrusion.
Subsequently, the prepared samples were annealed at 350 o C for different times to tailor …

Layered double hydroxides (LDH) frameworks have shown significant enhancement in
stability and reusability, and their tailorable architecture brings new insight into the …

Despite magnesium limited formability at room temperature, split sleeve hole cold expansion
of AZ31B sheet was successfully implemented. Microstructural analysis showed greater …

In this paper, high-strength ultrafine-grained (UFG) pure aluminum (Al) was successfully
achieved via a two-step processing route including room-temperature ECAP process for …
