Higher strength is always the goal pursued by researchers for the structural materials,
especially for the lightweight magnesium (Mg) alloys which generally have relatively low …

Corrosion is one of the most drawbacks which restricts the wide applications of Mg alloys. In
the last decade, the corrosion behaviors of Mg alloys with stacking fault (SF) and/or long …

Mg alloys are among the lightest alloys but they are usually weak. Here we report a new
mechanism to make them ultrastrong while maintaining good ductility. Stacking faults with …

Magnesium alloys containing long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase have been
received a great deal of attention in the last decade owing to their excellent comprehensive …

Abstract Samples of Mg-8.2 Gd-3.8 Y-1.1 Zn-0.4 Zr alloy with and without an intragranular
lamellae-shaped long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase were prepared through heat …

The microstructure and mechanical performance of the unidirectionally and cross-
directionally rolled Mg-8Li-6Zn-1Y (in wt.%) sheets have been investigated and compared. It …

Magnesium alloys have shown great potential for applications as both structural and
biomedical materials due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and good biodegradability …

Precipitation of a stable quasicrystalline i-phase has been discovered in a Mg-6Zn-3Al (wt%,
ZA63) magnesium alloy, possibly a first involving a stable i-phase. Dissolution of i-phase …

Abstract Pure Mg and prealloyed Mg-Gd-Nd-Zr-Zn alloy samples were prepared using
powder metallurgy route and further heat treated. The effects of heat treatment on the …

Recent studies show significant advances in improving the mechanical properties of
magnesium and its alloys. While many papers deal with different alloy compositions, it is …
