Compressive deformation behavior at room temperature – 773K in Mg–0.2mass%(0.035at.%)Ce alloy

Microstructure, Texture and Mechanical Properties of Mg-Zn-Ce Alloy Extruded at Different Temperatures

“…It also promotes a quick increase in the misorientation by the cross-slip of the screw hai dislocations across the subgrains and accumulation into the subgrain boundaries. 31) Some recent researches [32][33][34] reported activation of non-basal slips by minor RE addition in Mg. Therefore, it is presumed that the promotion of the activation of non-basal slips affects grain rotation process during DRX, resulting in the formation of the RE texture component in the extruded Mg-Zn-Ce alloys.…”

Tensile Properties and Stretch Formability of Mg-1.5 mass%-0.2 mass%Ce Sheet Rolled at 723 K

“…[4][5][6] One approach for texture control is an addition of rare-earth (RE) metal in Mg alloy. [7][8][9][10] According to the previous works, [7][8][9][10] RE metal addition modifies and weakens the strength of texture of hot-deformed Mg alloys, resulting in an enhancement of ductility and formability. Our previous work 10) has revealed that small addition of Ce in Mg promotes activation of prismatic slip, and an increase in stacking fault energy due to the addition of Ce is suggested to play a vital role in the activation of the prismatic slip.…”

Prediction of the True Stress of ZE20 Magnesium Alloy at Different Temperatures and Strain Rates

“…Luo et al [5] also examined the microstructure and mechanical properties of extruded magnesium alloy tubes; the results revealed that the mechanical properties can be improved with the addition of Ce to pure magnesium. Chino et al [6] investigated the compressive properties of Mg alloys from room temperature up to 500 °C to understand the effects of Ce on the deformation process; the results showed that the addition of Ce increased the ductility of Mg alloy at room temperature, but decreased it at 300 °C. El-Morsy et al [7] investigated the microstructural evolution of AZ61.…”
