Abstract An extruded Mg− 6Gd− 3Y− 1.5 Ag (wt%) alloy was processed by 6 passes of equal
channel angular pressing (ECAP) at 553 K using route Bc to refine the microstructure …

In this study, a remarkable annealing hardening effect was detected in gradient ultrafine-
grained (UFG) Mg-0.32 Gd-0.11 Zr (at.%) alloy sheet fabricated by sliding friction treatment …

Coating is an effective approach to address the high corrosion rate of biodegradable Mg
alloys, as their main challenge toward their extensive use. In this regard, it was tried to …

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 …

Hot deformation behavior and constitutive analysis of the as-cast and extruded Mg–2.5 Gd–
0.5 Zr alloy were compared, using the shear punch testing (SPT) method in the temperature …

Abstract The influence of 0.5 and 1.0 wt% Mn addition on the microstructure, texture,
mechanical properties and biodegradability of the extruded Mg–4Zn alloy was investigated …

Two magnesium alloys with the nominal compositions of Mg− 6Gd− 3Y (GW63) and Mg−
6Gd− 3Y− 1Ag (GW63− 1Ag) were hot extruded and then processed by 6 passes of the …

Microstructure, mechanical properties and superplastic behavior of Mg–2Gd–xZn (x= 0, 1, 2
and 3 wt%) alloys were investigated after extrusion and equal channel angular pressing …
