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 …

The micro addition of Ca is demonstrated to noticeably increase the strength and ductility of
Mg–Zn–Ce alloy, which is closely correlated with the enhanced alloying segregation at grain …

The role of alloying element segregation at grain boundary on the microstructure and
mechanical properties is investigated in the case of Ca, Ce, and Nd addition in Mg-1Zn …

Abstract Mg-xAl alloys (x= 3–12 wt%) were prepared by high pressure solidification. The
microstructure of the alloys was studied using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and …

The high performance of as-cast Mg-RE alloys is always related to their high RE additions.
However, RE elements can be readily segregated in Mg alloys and the segregation …

The microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-Sn-Ca-Ce alloys with different Ce
contents (0.0, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0 wt%) were studied at room temperature. Ce additions to ternary …

Abstract Ca single or Ca–Ce double microalloying Mg–Zn alloy was cast and extruded in the
present study. The combined addition of Ca and Ce improved the mechanical properties of …

A new low-alloyed Mg-2Sm-0.8 Mn-0.6 Ca-0.5 Zn (wt.%) alloy is prepared by low-
temperature and low-speed extrusion. The as-extruded alloy has ultra-high yield strength …

Magnesium, the lightest structural metal, has limited industrial application due to its poor
formability at room temperature. However, the mechanism for the effect of alloying elements …

Abstract Effects of samarium (Sm) content (0, 2.0, 3.5, 5.0, 6.5 wt%) on microstructure and
mechanical properties of Mg–0.5 Zn–0.5 Zr alloy under as-cast and as-extruded states were …
