Abstract:

High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) observation was performed to clarify the early stage of precipitation in Mg-Gd (-Zr) alloy and Mg-Y(-Zr) alloy aged at 423 K. At the early stage of agigng at 423 K, the intensity of the diffuse spots become higher at the 1/2 distance of 1100 or 2110 corresponding to magnesium matrix spots with aging time. Contrasts of mono layers on {100}Mg planes, and the feature of D019 type structure, precipitates with five layers corresponding the feature of (020)b' plane and b' phase co-existed and b' phase formed predominantly in the peak aged Mg-Gd (-Zr) alloy at 423 K, wheres in the peak aged Mg-Y(-Zr) alloy at 423 K, monolayer and precursor of precipitates with five layers corresponding the feature of (020)b' plane formed predominantly.
