摘要
The microstructures of as-cast and as-solution Mg–12Gd–2Er–1Zn–0.6Zr alloys were investigated by optical microscopy（OM）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, transmission electron microscopy（TEM）, highresolution transmission electron microscopy（HRTEM）X-ray diffraction（XRD） and selected-area electron diffraction（SAED） in the present investigation. The results show that the primary eutectic phase Mg5（Gd, Er, Zn） and some flocculent features are found in the as-cast alloy; the SAED pattern indicates that these flocculent features are the dense areas of stacking faults. The 14H-LPSO structure precipitates in the temperature range of 673–793 K, and the volume fraction of 14H-LPSO structure increases with the extension of heating time; however, there is no precipitation of 14H-LPSO structure when the temperature reaches up to 803 K. In addition, the Mg5（Gd, Er, Zn） phase dissolves gradually along with the precipitation of 14H-LPSO structure.
