Microstructural Characteristics and Mechanical Properties of Spray-Deposited Mg-Gd-Y-Zr Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, Mg-6.8Gd-4.5Y-0.5Zr alloy was fabricated by the spray atomization and deposition technique. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy were studied using optical microscopy, scanning/transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and tensile tests. The secondary phases in the microstructure of the spray-deposited alloy were examined. The tensile test results indicate that the spray-deposited Mg-6.8Gd-4.5Y-0.5Zr alloy displays superior tensile strength due to grain refinement and the presence of precipitating strengthening phases.
