Impression creep tests were performed to study the effects of separate additions of 1 wt%
Gd, Y, and La rare-earth (RE) elements on the microstructure and creep characteristics of a …

The effect of Zn content on grain growth kinetics of the fine-grained extruded Mg–2Gd–xZn
(x= 0, 1, 2, 3 wt%) alloys was investigated by annealing of the as-extruded sheets in the …

In this work, the effects of Ca, Sn, and Zn additions on the creep resistance of Mg–Al-based
alloys were systematically traced at 453 K. The best creep resistance was obtained in Mg …

The creep behaviors of dilute Mgsingle bondY alloys have been deeply explored whereas
very few researches concerned Mgsingle bond Y series with high Y concentration. The …

The microstructure, texture and mechanical behavior of two wrought ZK60 magnesium
alloys were investigated by tensile test and shear punch test (SPT). The samples processed …

Abstract The effect of 0.5, 1 and 1.5 wt% Ag addition on the microstructural evolution,
thermal stability and mechanical properties of an Mg–5 wt% Gd–1 wt% Y (GW51) alloy was …

The coarse solidification microstructure and the existence of brittle intermetallic compounds
(IMCs) are the main reasons for the poor interface properties of Mg/Al bimetal prepared by …

The morphology and thermal stability of the Al-RE phase in Mg-Al-RE alloys are critical to
their mechanical properties, particularly at elevated temperatures. In this study, AZ91, AZ91 …

Microstructural development and mechanical properties of the newly developed Mg–5Ni-xAl
(x= 2.5, 5, and 7.5 wt%) alloys were investigated. The microstructures of all alloys were …

The effects of adding 2 wt% Yttrium (Y) element on the thermal stability, microstructural
evolution, and mechanical properties of an Mg–4Zn alloy were examined. The as-cast …
