Biodegradable magnesium (Mg) alloys are expected to be promising materials for
cardiovascular stents (CVS), which can avoid the long-term clinical problems of current CVS …

As the lightest structural metal material, magnesium alloys possess good casting properties,
high electrical and thermal conductivity, high electromagnetic shielding, and excellent …

This work systematically investigates the impact of the dilute Sc addition on microstructures
and mechanical properties in Mg alloys. Electron back scattered diffraction, slip traces …

Proper alloying magnesium with element scandium (Sc) could transform its microstructure
from α phase with hexagonal closed-packed (hcp) structure into β phase with body-cubic …

Mechanical properties of a coarse-grained hexagonal close packed (hcp) single phase Mg-
Sc alloy with two different textures, randomized (through body centered cubic (bcc) to hcp …

This study investigated the transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) effect in Mg–Sc alloys
with β single-phase (body-centered cubic) structure. A Mg-19.8 at% Sc alloy showed fracture …

Enlarging the grain size in Mg–Sc alloys can greatly improve superelasticity. The impact of
heat treatment conditions on abnormal grain growth (AGG) caused by phase transformation …

Mg-Sc alloys are known as novel and promising lightweight shape memory alloys
(LWSMAs), which have outstanding performance. Yet, a precise understanding of the …

To realize a superelastic Mg-Sc lightweight alloy at room temperature, we investigated the
stress–strain behavior of Mg-18.7 at.% Sc alloy sheets at room temperature with martensitic …

In this study, extruded deformed billet and extruded rod of Mg–6Al–1Zn–1.1 Sc (wt.%) alloy
were characterized by optical microscopy (OM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) …
