Achieving the strength-ductility synergy in Mg alloys is a gigantic challenge, especially in
rare-earth-free Mg alloys. In this study, a new Mg-Sn-Zn-Zr alloy with high ultimate tensile …

Achieving high strength-ductility synergy is a great challenge in low-alloyed Mg alloys. In
this work, a new Mg–1.0 Zn–0.45 Ca–0.35 Sn–0.2 Mn (wt.%, ZXTM1000) alloy was …

The common problem of low tensile yield strength (TYS) prevails in high ductility dilute-
alloying Mg-RE alloys prepared by traditional hot extrusion. The design strategy of …

A newly developed Mg-2Gd-0.5 Zr-x Zn (x= 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 wt%) alloy system exhibits
significant strengthening by doping with Zn. In order to understand the strengthening …

An ultrafine-grained (UFG) Mg-RE alloy with superior yield symmetry and strength-ductility
synergy was successfully fabricated by simple hot extrusion. The as-extruded specimen was …

In this study, we successfully prepared a Mg-6Zn-0.2 Ca alloy by utilizing sub-rapid
solidification (SRS) combined with hard-plate rolling (HPR), whose elongation-to-failure …

In this study, a novel alloy designing concept, refining grain size and depressing
intergranular deformation (inter-GD) simultaneously, is put forward to prepare the Mg alloy …

Due to the lack of secondary phases, low-alloyed Mg–Al series alloys usually exhibit low
strength. In this work, by the addition of Ca element, a microstructure consists of a large …

Currently, the hierarchical structure is one of the most effective means to enhance the
strength and plasticity of metal materials, since the strain localization can be effectively …

Pre-aging prior to extrusion (AE), aiming to achieve high strength without sacrificing ductility,
has shown considerable potential in Mg-Sn alloys containing low content of Zn element. For …
