“…Previous studies have proved that Mg–RE–Zn alloys possess very attractive mechanical properties and high corrosion resistance derived from long period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures or stacking faults (SFs), where RE is short for rare earth, such as Gd (Zhang, Ba, et al, ; Zhang, Wang, et al, ; Zhang, Wang, Ba, Wang, & Xue, ; Zhang, Zhang, Liu, Yang, & Wang, ), Dy (Bi et al, ; Peng et al, ), Ho (Zhang, Zhang, et al, ), and Er (Leng et al, ; Zhang, Xu, et al, ). The LPSO structures and SFs contain high levels of the solute elements RE and Zn, and can inhibit basal slip, activate non‐basal slip, and further refine Mg recrystallized grains during hot working, thus significantly improving the mechanical properties of these Mg alloys (Jiao et al, ; Leng et al, ; Xu, Han, & Xu, ; Zhang, Zhang, et al, ; Zhang, Xu, et al, ; Zhang, Zhang, et al, ; Zou, Chen, & Chen, ). Furthermore, a significant improvement in resistance to corrosion was reported for LPSO‐containing Mg–Gd–Zn‐based alloys (Zhang, Ba, et al, ; Zhang, Ba, Wang, Wu, & Xue, ; Zhang, Wang, et al, ) and SF‐containing Mg–Ho–Zn and Mg–Er–Zn alloys (Leng et al, ; Zhang, Xu, et al, ; Zhang, Zhang, et al, ).…”
