The microstructure of a commercial AZ91 Mg alloy was modified via equal channel angular
pressing (ECAP) and subsequent aging. Immersion corrosion testing in 3.5 wt.% NaCl …

A high strength, good ductility and cost-effective Mg alloy is highly desirable for the light-
weighting application. Here, a combined processing route of hot extrusion with multi-pass …

An equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) process is used to obtain a fine-grain
magnesium-gadolinium-silver alloy, and hierarchical precipitates embedded in the fine …

As one of severe plastic deformation (SPD) methods, multi-directional forging (MDF)
technology is an effective way to refine grains. The microstructure, texture evolution and …

Abstract Mg–Gd–Ag-based alloys have attracted considerable attention in recent years
owing to their high strength. However, their characteristic mechanical behavior remains …

In the current study, a homogenous ultra-fine grained microstructure with average grain size
of 1.0 µm is achieved in the Mg–Zn–Ca–Mn alloy through the reduplicative equal channel …

To simultaneously improve the strength and ductility of the Mg-10Gd-3Y alloy, we propose a
new processing route: conventional extrusion (EX), followed by an equal channel angular …

Excellent ductility and high strength were achieved in the Mg-10.6 Gd-2Ag (wt.%) alloy via
an industrial-scale equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). The ECAP alloy exhibits an …

In this paper, the research status of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) in the
preparation of ultrafine grained magnesium alloy is introduced. The research results in …

High-strength Mg alloys have historically suffered from a challenge in achieving good
ductility. Here, we report an asymmetric gradient nanostructure design prepared by …
