Magnesium (Mg) alloys, as the lightest metal engineering materials, have broad application
prospects. However, the strength and ductility of traditional Mg alloys are still relativity low …

Low absolute strength becomes one major obstacle for the wider applications of low/no rare-
earth (RE) containing Mg alloys. This review firstly demonstrates the importance of grain …

Superplastic forming, as an advanced manufacturing method, is especially important for
producing complex-shaped components for Mg-alloys. Superplasticity can be achieved …

Grain boundary strengthening is an effective strategy for increasing mechanical properties of
Mg alloys. However, this method offers limited strengthening in bimodal grain-structured Mg …

Due to the insufficient slip systems, Mg and its alloys exhibit poor ductility during plastic
deformation at room temperature. To solve this problem, alloying is considered as a most …

A high-strength binary Mg–15Gd alloy plate, prepared by the conventional extrusion, warm-
rolling and aging, exhibits an excellent mechanical property with 504, 518 MPa and 4.5% for …

Increasing the level of grain boundary (GB) segregation is one of the effective strategies for
the preparation of new high-performance Mg alloys. Here based on careful experimental …

In this work, the effects of hybrid (HA+ Ag) particles and triple-pass friction stir processing on
the microstructure, texture, hardness, and tensile behavior of magnesium matrix bio-nano …

Simultaneously improving the yield strength (YS) and formability at room temperature of
magnesium (Mg) alloys is one of the key issues to broaden the application further. In this …

Here we report in-situ TEM observations on interaction between dislocations and β′
phases in aged Mg–Gd alloys. The slipping dislocations squash into the interface and bow …
