The results show that the increase of Zn content results in the volume fraction of W-phase(Mg3 Zn3 Gd2) increasing while that of Mg3 Gd phase decreasing. The strength of Mg-8 Li-xZn-1 Gd alloys is improved with the increase of Zn content,which is ascribed to the second phase strengthening of fine strip-like W-phase and the solid solution strengthening of Zn element.For Mg-8 Li-4 Zn-yGd alloys,the increase of Gd content leads to the appearance of coarse and discontinuous net-like W-phase, which decreases the strength. The Mg-8 Li-4 Zn-1 Gd alloy exhibits an optimum comprehensive performance with the yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and elongation of 154.7 MPa, 197.0 MPa and 12.4%, respectively. In addition,the aging behavior of the typical alloys was also investigated.展开更多

The experimental results show that the content ofI-phase andW-phase changes by varying Zn/Y mass ratio in the LZ83?xY alloys. The cohesion ofI-phase/α-Mg eutectic pockets can enhance the strength in the as-cast LZ83?0.5Y and LZ83?1.0Y alloys, while theW-phase has no obvious strengthening effect on the LZ83?1.5Y alloy. In the extruded alloys, the I-phase andW-phase were extruded into the particles with nanoscale size in theβ-Li matrix phase. The dispersion strengthening of W-phase was more obvious because of the higher volume fraction. The ultimate tensile strength of extruded LZ83?1.5Y alloy is up to 238 MPa while the elongation is up to 20%.展开更多
