Thermal Stability, Formability, and Mechanical Properties of a High-Strength Rolled Flame-Resistant Magnesium Alloy

Effect of Antigravity-Suction-Casting Parameters on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Mg–10Al–0.2Mn–1Ca Cast Alloy

“…57) There have been reports on the effects of the addition of Ca or Al and the cooling rate on the mechanical properties of the resulting alloy, 8) where the intermetallic Al 2 Ca compound was present as networks and as coarse agglomerations. 9) In the production of the cast material, an airtight environment is important for ingot combustion to counter contamination in the melt during the melting process. In addition, a solution treatment after casting is necessary owing to the development of an AlCa intermetallic material during gravity casting, in which the casting speed is relatively low.…”
