The addition of nanoscale additions to magnesium (Mg) based alloys can boost mechanical
characteristics without noticeably decreasing ductility. Since Mg is the lightest structural …

This paper summarizes and reviews the state‐of‐the‐art processing methods, structures and
mechanical properties of the metal matrix composites reinforced with ceramic nanoparticles …

Magnesium and its alloys reinforced with nano-size reinforcements display improved
mechanical properties without significant reduction in the ductility that is usually associated …

The mechanical properties of Mg97Zn1Y2 extruded alloy, composed of Mg matrix phase
and a long-period stacking ordered phase, the so-called LPSO phase, with a volume fraction …

In the present study, AZ91 magnesium matrix composites reinforced with six volume
fractions (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3 and 5vol.%) of submicron-SiC particulates (0.2 μm) were fabricated …

Mg and Mg–HAP composites containing 5, 10 and 15 wt% of hydroxyapatite have been
produced following a powder metallurgy route that consists of mixing raw powders and …

Abstract Mg-xGd-3Y-yNd-0.5 Zr alloys (x= 6, 8, 10; y= 0.5, 1 wt%) were prepared by hot
extrusion, pre-annealing and ageing treatments. After hot extrusion, the alloys exhibit a …

In this study, ultra-fine grained ZM21 Mg alloy was obtained through two-stage equal
channel angular pressing process (ECAP) at temperatures of 200 and 150° C. For each …

This paper describes the grain refinement due to controlled extrusion and the fatigue
behaviour of the extruded materials in three magnesium alloys, AZ31B, AZ61A and AZ80 …

In this work, AZ91 magnesium alloy reinforced with a low fraction (0–1) wt.% tungsten
disulfide (WS 2) microparticles have been fabricated using stir casting method. Effects of WS …
