Wire-arc directed energy deposition (DED) has attracted significant interest for the
fabrication of large-sized, lightweight Mg-alloy components. However, these components …

Magnesium alloy is becoming one of the main candidates for biodegradable orthopedic
implants due to its excellent biocompatibility and mechanical properties matching with …

Simultaneously improving the yield strength (YS) and formability at room temperature of
magnesium (Mg) alloys is one of the key issues to broaden the application further. In this …

Motivated by the effect of cooling rate on microstructure, standard air cooling (AC) and novel
cryogenic cooling (CC) were employed in the wire-arc directed energy deposition process of …

The characteristics of twins, dynamic recrystallization (DRX), and texture evolution of as-
solution AZ80 Mg alloy at different strains, strain rates and temperatures during hot …

Three kinds of high-performance as-extruded Mg-Gd-Zn-Zr alloys were successfully
prepared by controlling Zn and Gd contents and atomic ratio. The microstructure …

In this work, Ca was introduced into the Mg-3Sn alloy as an environmentally friendly
element. The electrochemical performance and discharge properties of Mg-3Sn-xCa (x= 0 …

Superhydrophobic coatings are effective in avoiding corrosion of substrates due to their
special wetting properties. The present work dispenses with the need for complex pre …

The industrial applications of Mg alloys are greatly limited by their trade-off of high strength
and ductility. In this work, conventional extrusion and rotary swaging (RS) were applied to …

To explore the effect of microalloying on Mg-2Zn-1Gd-0.5 Zr (wt.%)(ZG21), the discharge
characteristics of ZG21 and ZG21-0.2 X (X= Sn, Ca, Cu) were investigated comparatively. Sn …
