Effects of Sc Addition and Annealing Treatment on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of the As-rolled Mg-3Li alloy

The microstructures and mechanical properties of the as-rolled Mg-3Li and Mg-3Li-1Sc (wt%) alloys before and after annealing treatment have been investigated. Results show that the grains are refined evidently and the recrystallization temperature is improved for more than 100℃by adding 1 wt% Sc int...

Description
Summary:The microstructures and mechanical properties of the as-rolled Mg-3Li and Mg-3Li-1Sc (wt%) alloys before and after annealing treatment have been investigated. Results show that the grains are refined evidently and the recrystallization temperature is improved for more than 100℃by adding 1 wt% Sc into the Mg-3Li alloy. After complete recrystallization, both the strength and ductility of the Mg-3Li alloy are improved evidently with the addition of minor Sc. The brittle fracture tendency of Mg-3Li-ISc alloy also reduces obviously.
