Microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg–3.0Y–2.5Nd–1.0Gd–xZn–0.5Zr alloys produced by metallic and sand mold casting

Mg–3.0Y–2.5Nd–1.0Gd–xZn–0.5Zr (x = 0, 0.2, 0.5, and 1.0) (wt%) alloys were produced by metallic and sand mold casting to study the microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloys. The as-cast Zn-free alloys consist of α-Mg and eutectics, whereas the Zn-containing alloys contain additional lon...
