Characterization of microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-Y-Zn alloy with respect to different content of LPSO phase

Abstract

The Mg-Y-Zn alloys with different contents of alloying elements are extruded at an extrusion ratio of 4:1 at 350oC. The microstructure of the alloys is of an inhomogeneous character showing fine grains produced due to dynamic recrystallization and coarse original grains elongated along the extrusion direction (ED).
