Magnesium and its alloys offer lightweight advantage and have extensive development
prospects, particularly in aerospace. However, their flammability poses a significant barrier …

Abstract Non-flammable Mg-Zn-Gd alloys were developed by small addition of Be. The Mg
97 Zn 1 Gd 2 (at%) alloy exhibits relatively low ignition temperature of∼ 1020 K due to the …

This study presents the development of two novel wrought nonflammable magnesium alloys
based on the Mg-6Zn-1Mn (ZM61) system, which exhibit an exceptional combination of …

The study investigates ignition and oxidation behavior of Mg-3Nd-3Gd-0.2 Zr-0.2 Zn
(wt.%)(EV33 alloy) in air and varying pressure. EV33 exhibits easy ignition in air but not …

The incorporation of Y significantly improves the fire resistance of the Mg-3Nd-2Gd-0.2 Zr-
0.2 Zn (EV32) alloy. The findings indicate a significant increase in the ignition point of the …

Magnesium and its alloys have the advantages of high specific strength and specific
stiffness, excellent thermal conductivity and vibration damping performance. However, due …

This paper focuses on the effects and mechanisms of rare earth and calcium on the flame
retardancy of magnesium alloys. Rare earth elements form dense composite oxide films on …

Magnesium and its alloys occupy a vital role in the aerospace, automotive and
communications industries due to their low density, high specific strength and …

This work investigates the effect of homogenization and subsequent hard-plate hot forging
induced microstructural variations on the corrosion response of Mg-2Zn-1Nd alloy against …

Convection has a nonnegligible effect on the growth of the magnesium dendrite with six-
primary-branch pattern. Most work, however, investigates the effect of the convection by …
