Homogenization heat treatment of Mg-7.68Gd-4.88Y-1.32Nd-0.63Al-0.05Zr alloy - ScienceDirect
Source: sciencedirect.com
Article summary:
1. The microstructures and mechanical properties of a Mg-7.68Gd-4.88Y-1.32Nd-0.63Al-0.05Zr magnesium alloy were investigated in both the as-cast condition and after homogenization heat treatment from 535 to 555 °C in the time range 0–48 h
2. The optimum homogenization condition was 545 °C/16 h, which resulted in an increase in tensile strength, decrease in yield strength, and improvement in plasticity
3. The article discusses the effects of rare earth elements Gd and Y on solid solution strengthening of Mg alloys
Article analysis:
This article is generally reliable and trustworthy, as it provides detailed information about the microstructures and mechanical properties of a Mg-7.68Gd-4.88Y-1.32Nd-0.63Al-0.05Zr magnesium alloy before and after homogenization heat treatment from 535 to 555 °C in the time range 0–48 h, as well as discussing the effects of rare earth elements Gd and Y on solid solution strengthening of Mg alloys. The article also cites relevant sources for its claims, such as ASM Specialty Handbook: Magnesium and Magnesium Alloys (1999), Metallurgy, Design Data, Application (2006), Development of Highly Creep Resistant Magnesium Alloys (2001), Effects of Ca Addition on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Mg-RE-Zn Casting Alloy (2005), Effects of Rare Earth Elements Gd and Y on Solid Solution Strengthening of Mg Alloys (2009), Cast Magnesium Alloys for Elevated Temperature Applications (1994), Morphology and Crystallography of β Precipitate Phase in Mg-Gd-Y-Nd-Zr Alloy (2012), HRTEM Observation of Age Hardening Precipitates in Mg–8.3%Gd–3.7%Y–0.76%Zr Alloy (2007), Effect Of Amount Of Gd And Y Contents On Precipitation In Mg–Gd–Y Alloys Aged At 473 K (2013).
The only potential bias that could be identified is that some sources cited are from Chinese journals or books written by Chinese authors; however, this does not necessarily mean that they are biased or unreliable sources
