High-performance cast magnesium rare-earth (Mg-RE) alloys are one of the most important
materials among all developed Mg alloy families, and have shown great potential in military …

The addition of nanoscale additions to magnesium (Mg) based alloys can boost mechanical
characteristics without noticeably decreasing ductility. Since Mg is the lightest structural …

Over the past few decades, aluminium (Al) has been considered to be beneficial for
castability but detrimental for the creep resistance of magnesium (Mg) alloys. However, an …

In order to reduce oil consumption and avoid fossil fuel-related environmental problems,
scientists are always looking for lightweight structural materials that show high performance …

Owing to its low cost, short process and low energy consumption, semi-solid processing
(SSP) of aluminum (Al) and magnesium (Mg) alloys has been considered as a competitive …

The present work studies the strengthening mechanisms of a creep-resistant Mg-0.5 Gd-1.2
Ca (at.%) alloy at both room and elevated temperatures. Although peak-ageing (T6) at 180° …

Mg-based alloys are promising light materials for structural applications such as spare parts
and assembles in aerospace manufacturing, but most of them are prone to corrode. In this …

The present work reports the creep behavior and microstructural evolution of the sand-cast
Mg–14Gd–0.4 Zr alloy (wt.%) prepared by the differential pressure casting machine. Their …

Various industrial/commercial applications use Al-Mg alloys, yet the Mg added to Al
materials, to improve strength, is susceptible to surface segregation and oxidation, leaving …

In this work, we have investigated the influence of RE content on the tensile property, creep
resistance, and microstructures of a die-cast Mg–9Al-0.3 Ca-0.2 Mn (wt.%). Minor content of …
