Effects of strontium on microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast Mg–5wt.%Sn alloy

Solid solution strengthening in polycrystals of Mg–Sn binary alloys

“…Recently Mg-Sn based alloys have been given tremendous attention, and were deemed to be new cost-effective heatresistance magnesium alloys [1][2][3][4][5][6]. The Mg-Sn system shows some characteristics in terms of creep resistance due to the formation of Mg 2 Sn phase with a high melting temperature of 1043 K [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9].…”

“…The Mg-Sn system shows some characteristics in terms of creep resistance due to the formation of Mg 2 Sn phase with a high melting temperature of 1043 K [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Moreover, with the aid of thermodynamic modeling for Mg-Sn based ternary system [4][5][6], we can better understand the relationship of the phase constituents and compositions to design new alloys.…”

Effect of heat treatment on the microstructures and damping properties of biomedical Mg–Zr alloy

“…Addition of elemental Sr to Mg-based alloys results in grain refinement and improvement of the mechanical properties of the alloys [6]. Dong et al [7] have reported that upon the addition of 7 wt% Y, the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of the Mg-7Li alloy become 120% and 152% of those of the as-cast Mg-7Li alloy, respectively.…”

Corrosion resistance of Mg–5Al–xSr alloys

“…Cho et al [67] reported that Mg alloyed with 5% Al includes both ␣-Mg and ␤-Mg 17 Al 12 phases. Furthermore, a Mg-5Al alloy containing Sr showed supe- rior creep resistance, excellent high-temperature properties and good castability [68][69][70][71]. In addition, Sr is beneficial in improving the corrosion resistance of Mg alloys [72][73][74][75][76][77].…”
