The microstructures before creep and at the secondary creep stage were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that plenty of fine precipitates, especially β′-series precipitates or a combination of β-type and γ′ precipitates, could effectively enhance the creep resistance of Mg alloys. Large amounts of β'+β′F precipitate chains in the regions near grain boundaries of the sand-cast alloy blocked the motion of -type dislocations, while the interaction of basal and prismatic dislocations could be inhibited by synergy of γ′ and β-type precipitates. In contrast, transformation of β′-series precipitates to β1 or β precipitates in the peak-aged alloy reduced their capacity to impede the dislocation movement, seemingly presenting worse microstructures for creep resistance. However, the peak-aged alloy exhibited a uniform distribution of numerous semi-coherent β1 precipitates and dense rectangular networks composed of γ′ and β-type precipitates within the whole grain, which was superior to the uneven distribution of β-type and γ′ precipitates as well as a lack of ample precipitates at the center of grain in the sand-cast alloy. Thus, the peak-aged Mg–14Gd–1Zn–0.4Zr alloy obtained better creep resistance than the sand-cast alloy to some extent.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2023.146065} (DOI).

In this study, the characterisation of electropolished surfaces of AM50 and pure magnesium was performed, focussing on their in vitro degradation behaviour in cell medium. Corrosion rates were evaluated using potentiodynamic polarisation. The surface morphology before and after the onset of corrosion was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The presented electropolishing process led to improved surface performances, observable by significantly lower corrosion rates (0.08 mm·year−1 in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium), lower arithmetical mean height (0.05 µm), lower water contact angle (25–35°) and lower micro hardness (35–50 HV 0.1) compared to mechanically and chemically treated surfaces. MgO/Mg(OH)2 could be detected on electropolished surfaces. The localised corrosion mode could be reduced, but not entirely prevented.

Generally, static precipitation strengthening through thermal stable precipitates would generate satisfactory creep resistance. However, an opposite example is presented in this work and we propose that the size of precipitates plays a crucial role in controlling the operative creep mechanisms. In addition, the precipitate components along with their crystal structures in the crept Mg–4Al–3Sm–0.4Mn samples with/without pre-aging were thoroughly studied using Cs aberration-corrected high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM). Previous aging generates a large density of fine precipitates (< ∼5 nm) homogeneously distributing in Mg matrix and exhibiting satisfactory strengthening effect. However, the number density of precipitate strings consisting of several or even dozens of relatively coarse precipitates (∼10 nm) was significantly decreased at the same time. As revealed in this work, the relatively coarse particles in Mg matrix are much more efficient than the fine precipitates in promoting dislocation climb. Therefore, the rate-controlling mechanisms are transferred from dislocation climb to dislocation slip after previous aging, thus leading to degradation of creep resistance. Moreover, there are mainly five types of precipitates/clusters, namely β″-(Al, Mg)3Sm, Al5Sm3, ordered Al–Sm cluster, ordered Al–Mn cluster and ordered/unordered AlMnSm clusters.

The increasing ductility and toughening mechanism of HBG magnesium matrix composites are carefully discussed. When the extrusion speed increases from 0.75 mm/s to 2.5 mm/s or 3.5 mm/s, the microstructure transforms from uniform to HBG structure. Compared with Uniform-0.75 mm/s composite, Heterogeneous-3.5 mm/s composite achieves a 116.7% increase in ductility in the plastic deformation stage and almost no reduction in ultimate tensile strength. This is mainly because the lower plastic deformation inhomogeneity and higher strain hardening due to hetero-deformation induced (HDI) hardening. Moreover, Heterogeneous-3.5 mm/s composite achieves a 108.3% increase in toughness compared with the Uniform-0.75 mm/s composite. It is mainly because coarse grain (CG) bands can capture and blunt cracks, thereby increasing the energy dissipation for crack propagation and improving toughness. In addition, the CG band of the Heterogeneous-3.5 mm/s composite with larger grain size and lower dislocation density is more conducive to obtaining higher strain hardening and superior blunting crack capability.

Unfortunately, the strategies for increasing their strength, such as alloying, decrease their thermal conductivity. Aging treatment is an effective method to resolve the strength-thermal conductivity trade-off. In this study, the mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of previously designed as-cast Mg–Zn–La/Ce alloys were further improved by aging treatment. Mg–Zn–La/Ce alloys aged at 473 K for 20 h exhibit a good comprehensive property. The thermal conductivity, yield strength, and ultimate tensile strength of aged Mg97.3Zn2.6La0.1 alloy and Mg97.4Zn2.5Ce0.1 alloy reach 148.4 W/(m·K), 172.9 MPa, 218.7 MPa, and 155.3 W/(m·K), 172.1 MPa, 239.1 MPa, respectively. The effects of La/Ce addition and precipitation on thermal conductivity were analyzed from the aspects of intermetallic phases, precipitates, and solid solutions using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations and precipitation kinetic calculations. The addition of La or Ce has a positive effect on the thermal conductivity due to the formation of ternary τ1 phase which reduces the supersaturation of the Mg matrix. The precipitation shows two opposite influences on thermal conductivity. The sharp reduction in supersaturation of the matrix enhances the thermal conductivity, but the dense precipitates hinder the free movement of electrons and phonons.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jallcom.2022.167392} (DOI).

An ensemble based approach using shallow artificial neural networks was chosen to predict the material properties. A hyper parameter optimization process was used to obtain the lowest error. This machine learning approach allows defining objective functions to predict, among other factors, the anisotropic behaviour of Mg-Gd or the strengths. It is demonstrated how accurately the trained network predicts isotropic extruded alloys and process parameters, with the results checked against validation data. Validation data was obtained by uniaxial tensile and compression testing as well as optical microscopy of the extruded Mg-Gd alloys and is included. The ML based model is overall slightly better in predicting the material properties compared to a linear-regression approach.

The obtained results showed that the enhancement of creep resistance can be mainly attributed to the coherent β' and β'F phases with an alternate distribution, effectively impeding the basal dislocations movement. However, with the creep time increasing, the fine β'+β'F precipitate chains coarsened and transformed to semi-coherent β1 phase and even to large incoherent β phase (surrounded by precipitate-free areas) in grain interiors. The precipitate-free zones (PFZs) at grain boundaries (GBs) were formed, and they could expand during creep deformation.

It is revealed that β' and β'F precipitates distribute alternately forming precipitate chains in Mg–Gd–Zr alloys. Furthermore, β'+β'F precipitate chains led to the honeycomb-like structure in the sand-cast alloy during the creep process, improving its creep resistance to some extent. Nevertheless, weakly strengthening β1 precipitates occurred and detrimental β phases coarsened, which weakened the creep performance of the sand-cast alloy. However, the slight improvement of creep resistance in the peak-aged Mg–12Gd–0.4Zr alloy can be mainly attributed to the formation of precipitate-free zones (PFZs) and also the premature coarsening of β'+β'F precipitate chains. During creep, the cross slip of basal and prismatic dislocations become the dominant creep mechanism for the sand-cast alloys. By contrast, the cross-slip of basal dislocations and pyramidal dislocations is the dominant creep mechanism for the peak-aged alloys, which was arrested by precipitates then strengthening the creep resistance of peak-aged alloys.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2023.145422} (DOI).

The edge region of the as-swaged Mg-1Mn-0.5Al-0.5Ca-0.5Zn exhibits excellent comprehensive mechanical properties of the yield strength (YS) of 379 MPa, ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 400 MPa and fracture elongation (FE) of 10%. The high strength is attributed to fine grains (1.42 μm), higher density of nanoscale spheroidal Al-Mn precipitates and dislocations caused by RS. The microstructure is refined and the unrecrystallized (unDRXed) fractions decrease due to the formation of twins and high frequency of low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) during RS. Some initial large Al8Mn5 and (Mg, Al)2Ca phases are crushed and dissolved into the matrix, resulting in the formation of more nanoscale dispersive Al-Mn particles. The texture intensity become stronger after RD which is also contribute to the increasing strength.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matchar.2022.112575} (DOI).

A prerequisite for a comprehensive description is the visualization and analysis of the in vivo processes with high resolution, while avoiding metal artefacts during imaging and taking care of different imaging properties of inorganic and organic matrices. Here, synchrotron radiation-based micro-computed tomography was utilized to determine the degradation rates for two implant materials (Mg-5Gd and Mg-10Gd, wt. %) in vitro and in vivo. The comparison for in vitro and in vivo degradation in terms of degradation rate and pitting factor shows that in vitro experiments predict in vivo results the error. As a second aspect, push-out experiments revealed a better integration into bone for Mg-10Gd and the improvement of implant stability over time.

The creep results revealed that the additions of 0.5 wt% and 1 wt% Al significantly decreased the creep rate of El21 by more than an order of magnitude, whereas 2 wt% Al in El21 led to the reduction of creep properties. Microstructural analyses indicated that the additions of 0.5 wt% and 1 wt% Al led to significant grain coarsening due to the consumption of Zr via the formation of Al2Zr3 and Al2Zr phases. In contrast, the addition of 2 wt% Al caused distinct grain refinement, resulting from the additional formation of lumpy Al2RE in the centre of α-Mg grains. Additionally, the increase of Al content in the El21 gradually led to the disappearance of the Mg3RE phase and left Al2RE as the only dominant phase. The main Al–Zr phase was also changed from Al2Zr3+Al2Zr to Al2Zr phase. Creep data analysis showed that the dominant creep mechanism was dislocation creep for all alloys, which was in agreement with the EBSD and TEM characterizations. The enhanced creep resistance via the addition of 0.5 wt% and 1 wt% Al was ascribed to the high area fraction of intermetallic phases and the additional formation of the thermally stable Al2RE phase. El21 + 0.5Al has better creep resistance than El21+1Al, which was attributed to its stronger dynamic precipitation strengthening from γ precipitates. The deteriorated creep properties caused by adding 2 wt% Al in El21 alloy arose from the bimodal inhomogeneous distribution of grains and the laminar Al2RE phase. Such microstructure might cause significant stress concentrations and could not effectively impede dislocation motion or reinforce the grain/dendritic boundaries during creep, thus deteriorating the creep properties of El21+2Al.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2021.142358} (DOI).

The purpose of this study is to develop a rat femoral fracture model stabilized by external fixation with intra-medullary Mg implant, and to investigate the dynamic bone union process with several imaging techniques offering complementing insights into the process. Pure Mg pins were prepared, followed by in vitro degradation test. Male Sprague-Dawley rats in the experimental group underwent femoral osteotomy stabilized by external fixators with intra-medullary implantation of Mg pins, and the control group underwent external fixation without intra-medullary implants. Post-operative radiograph, micro-CT and B-mode ultrasonography were acquired directly after surgery, and re-examined at week 4, 8 and 12. Bone tissue volume, in vivo implant degradation, histological staining and MRI images were analyzed using ex vivo samples. Both groups achieved fracture union at week 12, and the dynamic healing process was illustrated by in vivo radiograph, micro-CT and ultrasonography. Bilateral whole femur ex vivo analysis further demonstrated increased ratio of bone tissue volume in the surgical femur with Mg implants, and in vivo degradation of Mg pins was slower than in vitro results. Titanium screws rather than intra-medullary Mg pins were the source of artifact in MRI.

At room temperature, compared with the VZ61 alloy, the compressive yield strength of the VZ63 alloy were obviously enhanced due to its increased amount of LPSO phase. Both alloys exhibited a three-stage strain hardening feature. The strain hardening rate first sharply decreases (stage I), then continues to increase at a slower rate (stage II) and finally decreases (stage III). At stage III, a larger number of dislocation accumulation around the kinked LPSO phase resulted in a higher strain hardening rate for VZ63 alloy than that for VZ61 alloy. During high temperature compression, the true stress–strain curves showed that the flow stress gradually reduced with increasing temperature and also the reducing of strain rate, and the VZ63 alloy displayed a higher peak stress than VZ61 alloy. Constitutive equations were constructed based on the true stress–strain to better understand the relation among flow tress (σ), strain rate () and deformation temperature (T) in VZ alloys during hot deformation. The results showed that the VZ63 alloy had a lower deformation activation energy (Q = 255.6 kJ/mol) than VZ61 alloy (Q = 395.5 kJ/mol).

The results reveal that the edge cracks are most likely to originate in the rolling direction and normal direction (RD-ND) plane due to the secondary tensile stress along RD. Edge cracking becomes more severe with an increasing reduction. The edge cracks mainly initiate and propagate in the fine recrystallized grain areas and the junction of recrystallized grains and sub-grains with hard orientation. The in-situ tensile test indicates that micro-cracks mainly initiate at the triple junction of grain boundaries where grains have hard orientation with low basal Schmid factor (SF).

It is found that the addition of Y in Mg can improve both the ambient strength and high temperature strength owing to its effective solid solution strengthening. At room temperature, the yield strength of Mg–Y alloys has a linear relation with the content of Y. When tested at high temperatures, the yield strength reduces. Compared with pure magnesium, Mg–Y alloys exhibit a high thermal stability even above 200 °C. Small amount of Y addition can improve the creep resistance of Mg largely. With further increasing its content, its contribution to the improvement of creep resistance is weakened for Mg.

The effects of precipitates on the room/elevated-temperature mechanical properties, and the related dynamic precipitation behavior were investigated. The elevated-temperature strengthening mechanism of the alloy was revealed. The precipitates transformed from Mg2Sn in Mg-Sn alloy to Sn3Y5 in Mg-Sn-Y alloys. The abundant Sn3Y5 nanoparticles formed in the as-extruded Mg-0.5Sn-3.5Y alloy which exhibited significant higher peak strength as 223 MPa compared to that of Mg-2.5Sn as 53 MPa. The calculation of the critical nucleation energy for dynamic precipitation indicated that the Mg-Sn-Y alloys exhibited a smaller nucleation barrier for dynamic precipitation of dense nanoscale Sn3Y5 particles compared to the Mg-Sn alloy. This barrier was further decreased with increasing Y content, as exemplified by the increased area fraction of nanoparticles in the Mg-0.5Sn-3.5Y alloy. The abundant Sn3Y5 nanoparticles can inhibit the grain boundary crack propagation, and the formed fine grains (~3.8 µm) can effectively hinder the dislocation motion. Therefore, the present work demonstrated that coupling a high area fraction of thermally stable nanoparticles with grain refinement can provide an effective approach to acquire superior elevated-temperature strength for Mg alloys.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jallcom.2022.166644} (DOI).

Pure Mg and two different Mg alloys were used to infiltrate the preforms by means of an advanced liquid infiltration method inspired by spark plasma sintering, using a novel die design to avoid the structural collapse of the preform. Complete infiltration was achieved in 8 min, including the time for the Mg melting. The short processing time enabled to restrict the decomposition of HA due to the reducing capacity of liquid Mg. The pure Mg-base composites showed compressive yield strength above pure Mg in cast state. Mg alloy-based composites did not show higher strength than the bare alloys due to grain coarsening, but showed similar mechanical properties than other Mg/HA composites that have significantly higher fraction of metallic phase. The composites showed faster degradation rate under simulated body conditions than the bare metallic component due to the formation of galvanic pairs at microstructural level.

The flow curves exhibited obvious serrations of periodic fluctuation at high strain rates, which can be considered as the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect. The relationship among flow stress, strain rate, and deformation temperature was analyzed. The deformation activation energy (Q) and some basic material factors (A, n, and α) were calculated based on the Zener–Hollomon equation. An approach of processing map composed of power dissipation and instability domains was established by the dynamic material model to reveal the hot workability. The flow instability domain only occurred at low temperatures and high strain rates. When the Mg–9Li–3Al alloy was deformed at 473 K and the strain rate of 1 s-1, numerous deformation twins were formed in α-Mg phases and, meanwhile, the β-Li phase was deformed and broken. When the temperature was increased to 573 K, the synergetic deformability between α-Mg and β-Li phases was improved due to the activation of more slip systems. However, the proportion of dynamic recrystallization was still low at the strain rate of 0.001 s-1. The needle-shaped α-Mg phase precipitated out in the β-Li matrix when the alloy was deformed at 623 K and the strain rate of 0.001 s-1. Its formation was attributed to the deformation-induced transformation. Moreover, the α-Mg phase can retard the dislocation movement and grain growth during deformation, leading to the precipitation/dispersion hardening.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmrt.2022.06.047} (DOI).

They show very good castability, are easy to machine and can be shaped into profiles or forgings to be used as components for next generation aerial vehicle construction. In the case of a large number of identical components, high-pressure die casting of magnesium alloys is clearly superior to high-pressure die casting of aluminum alloys. This is due to the lower solubility of iron in magnesium and thus tool/casting life is significantly longer. In addition, the die filling times for magnesium high-pressure die casting are approximately 30% shorter. This is due to the lower density: aluminum alloys are approximately 50% heavier than magnesium alloys, which is a significant disadvantage for aluminum alloys especially in the aerospace industry. There are cost-effective novel die casting alloys, besides AZ91 or AM50/60 such as DieMag633 or MRI230D, which show very good specific strength at room and elevated temperatures. In the case of magnesium-based wrought alloys, the choice is smaller, a typical representative of these materials is AZ31, but some new alloys based on Mg-Zn-Ca are currently being developed which show improved formability. However, magnesium alloys are susceptible to environmental influences, which can be eliminated by suitable coatings.

Porous Mg materials are interesting for their simultaneous degradation and drug delivery capabilities. However, an increase in pore surface area is detrimental to both degradation resistance and subsequent mechanical properties. The present work aims at determining the threshold porosity value in Mg–0.6Ca specimens produced by powder metallurgy (PM) below which low degradation rates persist with acceptable mechanical properties. Seven different porous Mg–0.6Ca specimens containing both closed and open pore structures were fabricated with porosities ranging from 3% to 21%. Degradation profiles were obtained via a semi static immersion test over 16 days under physiological conditions using Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium with Glutamax and 10% fetal bovine serum as supplements. The results are related to morphological pore parameters like pore size distribution, pore interconnectivity and pore curvatures that were quantified using an ex situ µCT analysis. In general, with decreasing porosity a decrease in pore interconnectivity is seen followed by rounding of the pores. Low degradation rates (MDR < 0.3 mm/year) are observed in specimens until 10% porosity, however, the upper bound for reproducible degradation is observed to be in specimens until 12% porosity. This porosity level also marks the transition from closed to open pore nature with a simultaneous change in pore interconnectivity from less than 10% to greater than 95%, below and above this porosity level, respectively. The tensile strength and elongation to failure recorded for specimens with 10% porosity were 70 MPa and 2%, respectively displaying positive traits of both homogenous degradation and mechanical properties.

It is found that the presence of intermetallic particles Mg41Nd5 affects the corrosion of Mg-Nd alloys in two conflicting ways. One is their negative role that their existence enhances the micro-galvanic corrosion. Another is their positive role. Their existence favours the formation of a continuous and compact corrosion layer. At the early stage of immersion, their negative role predominated. The degradation rate of Mg-Nd alloys monotonously increases with increasing the amount of intermetallics. Mg-5Nd alloy with maximum amount of intermetallics suffered from the most severe corrosion. With the immersion proceeding (≥7 days), then the positive role of these intermetallic particles Mg41Nd5 could not be neglected. Owing to the interaction between their positive and negative roles, at the later stage of immersion the corrosion rate of Mg-Nd alloys first increases with increasing the content of Nd, then reaches to the maximum at 2 wt. % Nd. With a further increase of Nd content, a decrease in corrosion rate occurs. The main corrosion products on the surfaces of Mg-Nd alloys include carbonates, calcium-phosphate, neodymium oxide and/or neodymium hydroxide. They are amorphous at the early stage of immersion.

However, the challenge lies in the homogeneous distribution of the ceramic nanoparticles in the melt if MMNCs have been processed via melt metallurgical processes. The large surface area of the nanoparticles generates large van der Waals forces, which need to be overcome. Furthermore, the wettability of the particles with molten metal is difficult. Additional forces can be applied by ultrasound, electromagnetic stirring, or even high-shearing. In this paper, properties of MMNCs with a light metal matrix, which have been produced with the High-Shearing Dispersion Technique are discussed. First, the process with its different characteristics and the underlying theory is presented, and then property improvements are discussed by comparing MMNCs to their matrix materials.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.2174/2405461506666210420133620} (DOI).

C-ring compression tests in Ringer solution were used to cause a fracture. Crack initiation and propagation is influenced by twin boundaries and LPSO lamellae. The blocky LPSO phases also clearly hinder crack growth, by increasing the energy to pass either through the phase or along its interface. The microstructural features were characterized by micro- and nanohardness as well as the amount and location of LPSO phases in dependence on the heat treatment condition. By applying nanoindentation, blocky LPSO phases show a higher hardness than the grains with or without lamellar LPSO phases and their hardness decreases with heat treatment time. On the other hand, the matrix increases in hardness by solid solution strengthening. The microstructure consisting of a good balance of grain size, matrix and blocky LPSO phases and twins shows the highest fracture energy.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.3390/ma14133686} (DOI).

The wires were studied in two states, recrystallized and solution annealed to assess the influence of Ag content and precipitates on the degradation. Imaging was employed after degradation in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium and 10% fetal bovine serum after 1 to 7 days. At 3 days of immersion the degradation rates of both alloys in both states were similar, but at 7 days higher silver content and solution annealing lead to decreased degradation rates. The opposite was observed for the pitting factor. Overall, the standard deviation of the determined parameters was high, owing to the relatively small field of view during imaging and high degradation inhomogeneity of the samples.

In this work, El21 and its nanocomposite with and without T6 treatment (520 °C for 8 h and 200 °C for 16 h) were prepared to reveal the influence of heat treatment on their microstructural evolutions and creep properties. Different intermetallic particles and precipitates that formed in El21 and El21 + 1% AlN/Al with different states were characterized using optical microscopy (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Creep tests were performed over a stress range of 80–140 MPa at 240 °C. Creep results showed that the application of T6 treatment could improve the creep resistance of El21, but deteriorate that of El21 + 1% AlN/Al. This is attributed to the reduced amount of γ'' and β′ precipitates in El21 + 1% AlN/Al (T6) after ageing, resulting from the formation of plate-like Al2(Nd, Gd) (Al2RE) precipitates. It is also found that after T6 heat treatment, El21 (T6) had a lower minimum creep rate with a shorter duration of secondary creep stage than El21 + 1% AlN/Al (T6) at high creep temperatures due to the overageing of precipitates and the thermal stability of the Al2RE particles. El21 + 1% AlN/Al nanocomposites, either in the as-cast or T6 condition, show a much longer duration of secondary creep than NP-free El21. The responsible mechanism was attributed to the addition of AlN NPs and the formation of particulate/plate Al2RE phase.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2020.139669} (DOI).

Nevertheless, when Al and AlN were simultaneously added into El21 alloy the formation of these blocky phases Al2Zr/Al2Zr3 was suppressed, and a larger amount of Al2RE phase was observed.

Refined non-dendritic microstructure was observed in the rheo-formed alloy, whose grain size and shape factor were ca. 25.2 μm and ca. 1.56 respectively. Neither post-interventional inflammation nor pathological changes were observed in the urinary system during the implantation period of 14 weeks, and the degradation profile (14 weeks) meets the common requirement for the indwelling time of ureteral stents (8 to 16 weeks). Furthermore, histopathological observation and urinalysis results confirmed that the alloy had significantly higher antibacterial activity than the medical-grade stainless steel control. To our knowledge, this is the first in vivo study of biodegradable magnesium alloy as urinary implants in large animal models.

Microstructural analysis indicated that the ageing treatment before extrusion led to the formation of dense prismatic β′ and basal γ′ precipitates in heat treated alloys. The presence of these precipitates and their solution obstructed the dynamic recrystallization process during hot extrusion. The lamellar long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) phases restrained the recrystallization through forming the kink band and releasing the stress concentration, and the fine β-Mg5(Gd, Y) particles suppressed the recrystallization by the particle pinning effect. The block-shaped LPSO phases and coarse β-Mg5(Gd, Y) particles promoted the recrystallization following the particle stimulated nucleation (PSN) mechanism. The combined effects led to the formation of the bimodal microstructure, which shows fine recrystallized grains with random grain orientation and deformed grains with strong fiber texture. The bimodal microstructure with lower recrystallization fraction provides the alloy higher strength and lower ductility.

In order to better understand how the biaxial compressive stress state influences the evolution of the microstructure and the deformation compatibility, the uniaxial and biaxial compression tests of AZ31 rolled sheets were performed at room temperature. The new self-developed biaxial compression devices offered a possibility to obtain the evolution of the microstructures by in situ measurements via electron backscatter diffraction. The analysis of geometrically necessary dislocation and the simulation based on the visco-plastic self-consistent method were used to examine the microscopic behaviors in the sheets during the uniaxial and biaxial compression tests. The results indicated that the reorientation of the texture during the biaxial compression was different from that during the uniaxial compression. The simulated results based on the visco-plastic self-consistent model suggested that the equivalent yield strength under a biaxial compressive stress state was lower than that under a uniaxial stress state. This was due to the higher relative activity of extension twins under biaxial compressive stress state. This also led to a lower geometrically necessary dislocation density in the biaxial compressed sample. The geometrically necessary dislocations were also more homogeneously distributed with a biaxial compressive stress state. The analysis of the activation of all the deformation mechanisms proved that the appearance of extension twinning variants limited the activation of prismatic slip during the uniaxial compression while promoting prismatic slip during the biaxial compression.

Compressive creep tests of unreinforced and reinforced Elektron21 alloys were performed at 240 °C with an applied stress of between 70-140 MPa. The results show that HSDT is an effective way to incorporate the nanoparticles and therefore to improve the creep resistance of El21 alloy by about one order of magnitude with 0.5% AlN/Al nanoparticles (NPs) compared with unreinforced alloy. The calculation of true creep stress exponent indicates that the viscous glide of dislocation and dislocation climbing are the rate controlling mechanisms during creep deformation. The microstructural observations show that the grains changed from equiaxed to dendritic grains with the addition of NPs by HSDT. Grain refiner Zr in Elektron21 alloy was partly consumed by Al atoms from the nano-powder mixture to form stable compound leading to grain coarsening. After high shearing, AlN NPs are effectively dispersed without any discernible clusters. The eutectic phases of El21 + 0.5AlN/Al composite become less continuous, much thinner, and are more homogeneously distributed in the alloy, which helps to pin the grain boundary sliding and hinder the dislocation movement inside the grain. The existence of AlN NPs is helpful for modifying the morphologies of α-Mg dendrites during solidification and thus resulting in obtaining thinner and hyper-branched eutectic phases in the nanocomposite. As a result, the creep resistance of reinforced alloy is additionally improved.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2019.03.131} (DOI).

This work investigates a suitable etching method to remove surface contamination and to understand the influence of etching on surface morphology. Acetic acid (HAc) etching as chemical surface treatment has been used to remove contamination from the surface. Extruded Mg-xGd (x = 2, 5 and 10) discs were etched with 250 g/L HAc solution in a volume of 5 mL or 10 mL for different times. The microstructure in the near surface region was characterized. Surface characterization was done by SEM, EDS, interferometry, and ToF-SIMS (time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry) analysis. Different etching kinetics were observed due to microstructure and the volume of etching solution.

Strain concentrations happened in some regions even at early stage of deformation. Short distorted bands also appeared in these regions and extended to connect each other with increasing macroscopic strain. The appearance of distorted bands play an important role in strain compatibility since the materials lack easy deformation modes at room temperature. Besides slips and twins, the grain distortion should also be an indispensable mechanism in accommodating plastic deformation in some parts in distorted bands. According to the analysis from the Schmid factor, the geometric compatibility factors and slip trace identification, the comprehensive effect of strong basal texture and biaxial tensile stress state not only led to the quite low SFs for prismatic, pyramidal slips and tensile twinning, but limited the compatibility between slip systems and tensile twins. This mechanism was the main reason for the lack of easy deformation modes and the appearance of distorted bands, which further led to the inhomogeneous strain distribution at room temperature.

The present study deals with the characterization and modeling of the evolution of the microstructure of an aluminum wrought alloy at large plastic deformations. Hot torsion tests of the AA6082 aluminum alloy are carried out using the thermomechanical simulator Gleeble®3800 in a wide range of temperatures and strain rates. The use of water quenching immediately after deformation avoids any static restoration during cooling. Microstructural investigations are carried out by means of electron back scattered diffraction using a scanning electron microscope to determine the grain and subgrain structures, as well as the misorientation distributions. In-situ synchrotron radiation tests during hot torsion are used to confirm the continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) by the evidence of the conversion of low angle boundaries (LAGBs) into high-angle boundaries (HAGBs) and the formation of new texture. Experimental investigations show that CDRX starts with the formation of LAGBs at low strains (center of the sample). By subsequent straining (close to the surface of the sample), the accumulation of dislocations at the LAGBs causes an increase in their misorientation until a critical value is reached and LAGBs transforms into HAGBs. The developed model consists of a microstructural model, equation rates and constitutive equations. The microstructure is described by three internal variables. Their rates are evaluated using the Kocks-Mecking model. The modelled and experimental flow stresses show softening due to the consumption of dislocations and the continuous formation of new HAGBs.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/1270/1/012049} (DOI).

Although peak-ageing (T6) at 180 °C for 32 h led to a significant increase in room temperature strength due to the precipitation strengthening by three types of precipitates (Mg2Ca, Mg5Gd on prismatic planes and a new type of Mg–Gd–Ca intermetallic compound on the basal plane), the as-solid solution treated (T4) alloy exhibited better resistance to temperature softening during compression and to stress relaxation at 180 °C and better creep resistance at 210 °C/100 MPa. The Gd–Ca co-clusters with short-range order in the Mg solid solution, which was verified, at the first time, by atom probe tomography (APT) analysis and atomic-resolution high angle annular dark field-scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM), were responsible for the solid solution hardening, offering a more effective strengthening effect through local order-strengthening. Such solid solution strengthening increased the thermal stability of the alloy structure at elevated temperatures, at least at early stage of the creep. Subsequently, dynamic precipitation started contributing to the creep resistance due to the formation of higher density of precipitates. However, in the T6 alloy, creep testing at elevated temperatures, particularly at 210 °C that was higher than the ageing temperature, led to coarsening of the precipitates, which acted as over ageing. As a result of such over ageing, the resistance of the T6 alloy to heat-induced softening was weakened, leading to lower creep resistance than the T4 alloy.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actamat.2019.09.058} (DOI).

The tension and compression properties along the extruded direction were tested to evaluate the hardening effect. The results showed that torsional deformation can largely enhance the subsequent age-hardening effect. A detailed microstructural characterization revealed that torsional deformation produced a high density of dislocations and {10-12} twins, which can promote continuous precipitation and increase the number density of the Mg17Al12 phase. In addition, part of dislocations and the {10-12} twins were retained after aging treatment. The combination of the increased precipitation hardening by Mg17Al12, dislocation strengthening and refinement strengthening contributed to the high hardening effect. Moreover, the hardening effect can be further increased by tailoring the torsion route. The torsion route exhibited little influence on the age-hardening effect, while it remarkably affected the texture of the twisted AZ91 rods. Reciprocating torsion had little influence on the texture. In contrast, unidirectional torsion caused the c-axis of the texture to rotate toward the extrusion direction, resulting in a texture softening effect.

For biomedical purposes, the choice of the alloying elements is a critical parameter and rare earth elements have been proven to be mechanically suitable and biologically tolerable. In this comprehensive study, tailoring the mechanical properties of binary Mg-Gd alloys by indirect extrusion is shown to obtain a property profile that is applicable to different biomedical applications. Mg-2Gd, Mg-5Gd, and Mg-10Gd were solid solution treated before extrusion. For each alloy various combinations of extrusion temperature and speed were applied. Resulting effects of alloy composition and processing on microstructure development, texture evolution, mechanical properties, and degradation behavior were investigated. Grain sizes and corresponding textures were adjusted by the extrusion parameters. Despite changes in the texture, grain boundary strengthening effects were confirmed for all alloys in accordance with the Hall-Petch relationship. The alloy composition contributed to the mechanical properties by solid solution strengthening and a combination of texture changes and slip activities. Consequently, mechanical properties can be tailored within a wide range resulting in tensile yield strengths of 90 to 200 MPa (ultimate tensile strengths 180–280 MPa) and compressive yield strengths of 80 to 220 MPa (ultimate compressive strengths 300–450 MPa) with elongations of 10–45%. Low degradation rates in the range of 0.2 mm/year were determined for all alloys. Degradation was only slightly influenced by the alloy composition but not affected by processing.

Not only the size of particles, but also their chemical composition and the composition of the alloy are important for the beneficial effect of nanoparticles. The mechanical properties can be tailored with much fewer nanoparticles compared to microparticles, because the interparticle spacing is much smaller. However, with large surface areas compared to their weight and low wettability, any deagglomeration of the nanoparticles in a magnesium melt is difficult to achieve and so requires additional processing, such as by electromagnetic or ultrasound-assisted stirring.

While their influence on the texture is unquestionable, it is not yet clear why certain texture components, such as ⟨112 ¯ 1⟩||extrusiondirection, ⟨112¯1⟩||extrusiondirection, are favored over other components typically observed in traditional magnesium alloys. The objective of this research is to identify the mechanisms accountable for these RE textures during early stages of recrystallization. Electron backscattered diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analyses reveal that REEs in zinc-containing magnesium alloys corroborate discontinuous dynamic recrystallization. REEs promote isotropic growth for all nuclei generated through the bulging mechanism. During nucleation, the effect of REEs on orientation selection was explained by the diversified activity of both ⟨101 ¯ 0⟩ ⟨101¯0⟩ and [0001] Taylor axes in the same grain with a marked preference for [0001] rotations to occur first. During nuclei growth, no growth preference was observed when sufficient REEs are added in the zinc-containing magnesium alloys, instead isotropic nuclei growth across all grain orientations occurs. This phenomenon is attributed to REEs segregating to grain boundaries (GBs), in agreement with prior computational and theoretical results (Barrett et al., Scripta Mater 146:46–50, 2018) that show a more isotropic GB energy and mobility after segregation.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1007/s11661-018-4520-8} (DOI).

The compressive strength is significantly improved by DMD processing, which is attributed to the grain refinement. The processing maps for AC and CH conditions are similar, exhibiting only a single workability domain, while the DMD processed alloy exhibited three domains that enhanced workability.

In this paper, the research covering the influence of Ca additions to several magnesium alloy systems on their strength, microstructure, and hot workability is reviewed. During mechanical processing, the formation of basal texture is considerably weakened by Ca addition. Ca‐containing alloys have limited workability and can be processed only by choosing the right combination of temperature and strain rate that corresponds to the occurrence of dynamic recrystallization (DRX). This can be done without trial‐and‐error through the use of processing maps. The processing maps for hot working of low‐Ca containing alloys typically exhibit three DRX domains while the maps for high‐Ca alloys typically exhibit only two DRX domains. In particular, the high‐Ca alloys have to be processed at lower strain rates and higher temperatures since the high volume content of intermetallic particles prevents DRX at high strain rates. Flow instabilities occur rampantly in Ca‐containing alloys, particularly in high‐Ca alloys, at lower temperatures and higher strain rates that have to be avoided during their thermo‐mechanical processing.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1002/adem.201701102} (DOI).

Alloys with different grain size were prepared by adding Zr and hot extrusion. Hardness and tensile/compression yield strength were tested on the alloys after solid solution treatment and extrusion. Hall-Petch constants were calculated with hardness and tensile/compressive data. The results showed that the hardness of Mg–Gd alloys with similar Gd content and different grain size were almost the same, which indicates that grain size had little effect on hardness. The hardness linearly increased with rising Gd content (dHv/dc ≈ 25 kg mm−2/at%Gd). The tensile and compressive yield strengths enhanced with the increase of Gd content for all alloys in different conditions. In addition, the tensile/compressive (t/c) yield asymmetry of extruded alloys decreased with increasing Gd content. Large t/c yield asymmetry ratio (1.77) was observed for pure Mg, and with increasing Gd content this value decreased to 1. With the increasing of tensile strength, the stress intensity factor, ky, decreased from 0.27 MPa m1/2 for Mg–2 wt% Gd alloy to 0.19 MPa m1/2 for Mg–5 wt% Gd alloy, then increased to 0.29 MPa m1/2 for Mg–15 wt% Gd alloy.

With the addition of the TiBor grain refiner, the grain size of the AZ91D alloy reduced by ∼70%, and the force and force-rate evolution significantly reduced as well, suggesting a homogenization of the internal stresses experienced by the solidifying alloy's microstructure, leading to a nearly complete elimination of hot tearing.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jallcom.2018.05.129} (DOI).

However, this antibacterial effect may not be sufficient in a dynamic environment, for example, the human body. The aim of this study was to increase the antibacterial properties under harsh and dynamic conditions by alloying silver metal with pure Mg as much as possible. Meanwhile, the Mg-Ag alloys should not show obvious cytotoxicity to human primary osteoblasts. Therefore, we studied the influence of the microstructure and the silver content on the degradation behavior, cytocompatibility, and antibacterial properties of Mg-Ag alloys in vitro. The results indicated that a higher silver content can increase the degradation rate of Mg-Ag alloys. However, the degradation rate could be reduced by eliminating the precipitates in the Mg-Ag alloys via T4 treatment.

Silver was shown to have an antibacterial effect and can also enhance the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys. Measurements of microhardness and electrical resistivity were used to study the response of Mg–4Y and Mg–4Y–1Ag alloys to isochronal or isothermal heat treatments. Hardening response and electrical resistivity annealing curves in these alloys were compared in order to investigate the effect of silver addition. Procedures for solid solution annealing and artificial aging of the Mg–4Y–1Ag alloy were developed. The corrosion rate of the as-cast and heat-treated Mg–4Y–1Ag alloy was measured by the mass loss method.

The bimodal microstructure can be removed by subsequent annealing. This alloy contains several long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) and Mg5RE phases (RE: rare earth). The extrusion ratio and annealing process have negligible effects on the volume fraction of the LPSO phase but have significant effects on the Mg5RE phase. The volume fraction of the Mg5RE phase decreases as the extrusion ratio and annealing time increase. Cuboid precipitates form in the alloy extruded at low extrusion ratios after annealing. The alloy exhibits a bimodal texture with <0001> and <101 ¯ ¯ ¯ 0 101¯0> components. The presence of the <0001> component is determined by a critical grain size. The texture evolution (such as the degree of grain growth) is not influenced by the extrusion ratio, but it is affected by the annealing time, which is related to the Mg5RE phase rather than the LPSO phase. The grain refinement, the Mg5RE and LPSO phases, and the texture contribute to the alloy strengthening.

Hence, the use of such alloys may result in a feasible and cost effective alternative for enhancing Mg alloy use in high temperature applications. Nevertheless, studies on the castability of Mg-Nd-Zn alloys are lacking. As such, the aim of this research was to investigate the hot tearing susceptibility of Mg-5Nd-xZn (x = 0, 3, 5, 7 wt%) alloys during permanent mold casting. Specifically, a constrained-rod casting mold equipped with a load cell was used to characterize hot tearing severity and determine the onset temperature of hot tearing. The onset solid fraction of hot tearing was subsequently determined via thermodynamic software. The results suggest that hot tearing severity increased initially with addition of Zn (up to 5 wt%), but then decreased with further addition to 7 wt%. This was likely attributed to both the low onset solid fraction of hot tearing (i.e. 0.5) recorded for this alloy, which enabled enhanced feeding and opportunity to heal developing hot tears, as well as the divorced eutectic structure observed which may have facilitated late stage feeding of eutectic liquid and hence limit the alloy's susceptibility to hot tearing.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1002/9781119274803.ch26} (DOI).

Since implant removal can become technically very challenging with the potential to cause further tissue damage, biodegradable materials are emerging as alternative options. Magnesium (Mg)-based biodegradable implants have a controllable degradation rate and good tissue compatibility, which makes them attractive for musculoskeletal research. Here we report for the first time the implantation of intramedullary nails made of an Mg alloy containing 2% silver (Mg2Ag) into intact and fractured femora of mice. Prior in vitro analyses revealed an inhibitory effect of Mg2Ag degradation products on osteoclast differentiation and function with no impair of osteoblast function. In vivo, Mg2Ag implants degraded under non-fracture and fracture conditions within 210 days and 133 days, respectively. During fracture repair, osteoblast function and subsequent bone formation were enhanced, while osteoclast activity and bone resorption were decreased, leading to an augmented callus formation. We observed a widening of the femoral shaft under steady state and regenerating conditions, which was at least in part due to an uncoupled bone remodeling. However, Mg2Ag implants did not cause any systemic adverse effects. These data suggest that Mg2Ag implants might be promising for intramedullary fixation of long bone fractures, a novel concept that has to be further investigated in future studies.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actbio.2016.03.041} (DOI).

In situ synchrotron radiation diffraction is a tool to unequivocally follow the phase formation and grain growth during cooling, thus determining the solidification sequence. In the present study Mg alloys containing Dy and Zr were investigated to characterize the solidification phenomenon during cooling from 660°C to 200°C.

The cast-homogenized alloy samples were hot compressed in the temperature and strain rate ranges of 300–500 °C and 0.0003–10 s−1, respectively, and a processing map has been developed by using the flow stress data. The map revealed two dynamic recrystallization (DRX) domains with a peak efficiency of 44% at 360 °C/0.0003 s−1 (Domain 1) and 43% at 485 °C/0.1 s−1 (Domain 2). When compared with the map for as-cast condition, it is observed that both the domains moved towards higher temperatures although the shift of Domain 1 is more noticeable.

It is found that the distribution of deformation-induced precipitates is inhomogeneous. These precipitates are first formed at grain boundaries and then at deformation bands which are kinetically and thermodynamically favourable. The dynamic precipitation accompanies the volume change of phases, which influences the subsequent formation and growth of voids.

These globular Mg5RE particles contributed to continuous dynamic recrystallization by promoting the evolution of low misorientation sub-grain boundaries to high misorientation grain boundaries and caused grain refinement through grain boundary pinning. The improved mechanical properties were ascribed to the grain refinement, globular Mg5RE and LPSO precipitates. The ratio of compressive to tensile yield strength is 1.2.

Recent studies show that Mg-based alloys can be biocompatible and there is a high demand to design Mg alloys with adjustable corrosion rates and suitable mechanical properties. An approach to solving this challenge might be the use of Mg metal matrix composites (Mg-MMC). In this study, a Mg-MMC composed of ZK60 was investigated as the base material and hydroxyapatite (HA) particles were added for tailoring its properties. The composite was produced by high-energy ball milling followed by hot extrusion. This processing route was chosen, as HA in contact with molten Mg releases a toxic gas (phosphine – PH3). The HA particles were homogeneously distributed in the ZK60 matrix after ball milling and the composite was consolidated by hot extrusion. This work presents the influence of different amounts of HA on corrosion behavior and mechanical properties of the composite. Corrosion properties were evaluated by immersion and electrochemical measurements in physiological media at 37 °C. A slight improvement in the corrosion resistance was observed for Mg-MMC due to the presence of more stable corrosion products. Compression tests were used to measure the mechanical properties. Under compression, samples showed a slight increase in the compressive yield strength with the addition of HA, while the ultimate strength did not change significantly.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/MSF.828-829.165} (DOI).

Also medical applications, like bone screws and nails, benefit from their moderate corrosion rate and biocompatibility. All applications need materials which show a high strength, ductility and fracture toughness in case a crack has formed during service to keep safety against rupture. In this study four extruded Mg10Gd based alloys modified with Nd and La have been 3-point-bend tested at low a deformation speed to evaluate the influence of the microstructure on crack growth. A comparison to the cast material (subjected to T4 to increase ductility and to reduce the dendritic microstructure) shows an increase in strength and ductility due to the fine grained microstructure as a result of recrystallization during extrusion. The maximum bending strength and outer strain to crack initiation is also strongly influenced by the alloying system itself. The influence of Nd and La to the binary alloy Mg10Gd is discussed in using tensile, compression and bending tests. The increase in strength results in reduced elongation to fracture in tension loading as well as the outer strain for the crack initiation during bending tests. Tensile tests are often discussed to be not a reliable method for determining the Young’s modulus of magnesium. Therefore resonance frequency damping analysis has been applied to determine the dynamic modulus of elasticity, which is compared with the flexural (bending) modulus. Crack growth is discussed using light microscopy and correlated with bending stress-strain curves. The crack growth rate of the extruded, fine grained material is many times higher than of the cast, coarse grained material. Crack propagation is mostly transgranular and assisted by twinning.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/MSF.828-829.311} (DOI).

It has been extensively studied on steel and aluminum alloys in the past decades. For magnesium alloys, the investigations on hot tearing have been focused on binary Mg-Zn, Mg-Ca, Mg-Al, Mg-Y and Mg-Gd alloys and ternary Mg-Al-Zn, Mg-Al-Ca, Mg-Al-Sr, Mg-Zn-Gd, and Mg-Zn-Y alloys. The cast Mg–Zn–Ca alloys exhibit a high hardness and good creep resistance, owing to the formation of fine precipitates in the matrix. In addition, Mg-4Zn-xCa alloys were reported to have a satisfied combination of mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Therefore, investigation on hot tearing behaviour of Mg-4Zn-xCa is of great interest. In the present work, the influence of Ca content (0, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 wt. %) on the hot tearing of Mg-4 wt. % Zn alloy was investigated using a constrained rod casting (CRC) apparatus equipped with a load cell and data acquisition system. The effect of different mould temperatures (250 ⁰C and 450 ⁰C) on hot tearing susceptibility was also studied. The initiation as well as propagation of hot tearing was monitored during CRC experiments. Hot tears were observed and evaluated by a digital camera and 3D X-ray tomography. Microstructures and fracture surfaces were characterized by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Results show that Mg-4Zn-0.5Ca alloy exhibit the highest hot tearing susceptibility. Mould temperature improves the hot tearing resistance of Mg-4Zn-xCa alloys. Liquid film is observed on the fracture surface, indicating that the hot tearing may proceed by liquid film rupturing.}, note = {Song, J.; Wang, Z.; Huang, Y.; Kainer, K.; Hort, N.: Influences of Ca Addition on the Hot Tearing Behaviour of Mg-4Zn-xCa Alloys.

A constrained-rod casting mold attached to a load cell was used to monitor the contraction force during solidification and subsequently determine the onset temperature of hot tearing in B206. The corresponding onset solid fraction of hot tearing was estimated from the solid phase evolution of α-Al in B206 using in situ neutron diffraction solidification analysis. Hot tears were found to occur at solid fractions ranging from 0.81 to 0.87. Higher mold temperatures significantly reduced hot tearing severity in B206 but did not alter the onset solid fraction. In contrast, additions of titanium to B206 were effective at eliminating hot tears by transforming the grain structure from coarse dendrites to finer and more globular grains. Finally, in situ neutron diffraction solidification analysis also successfully determined the solid phase evolution of intermetallic Al2Cu during solidification, which in turn, provided a better understanding of the role of Al2Cu in the development of hot tears in B206.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matdes.2014.07.024} (DOI).

While 0.4 wt% Al addition to TX32 did not result in any significant change in the processing map, the map for the alloy with 1 wt% Al (TX32-1Al) exhibited four domains in the ranges: (1) 300–325 °C and 0.0003–0.001 s−1, (2) 325–430 °C and 0.001–0.04 s−1, (3) 430–500 °C and 0.01–0.5 s−1, and (4) 430–500 °C and 0.0003–0.002 s−1. In the first three domains, DRX has occurred, whereas in the fourth domain, grain boundary sliding takes place causing intercrystalline cracking in tension. In Domain 1 for all the alloys, DRX has occurred predominantly by basal slip and recovery by climb as confirmed by the resulting basal texture and tilt type sub-boundary structure. In Domain 2 of the base alloy and Domain 3 of the alloy with 1 wt% Al, second-order pyramidal slip dominates associated with cross-slip which randomizes the texture, and forms tangled dislocations and twist type sub-boundaries in the microstructure. The addition of 1 wt% Al causes solid solution strengthening and results in Domain 2 of the map of TX32-1Al alloy and in this domain basal+prismatic slip dominate.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1007/s10853-014-8300-6} (DOI).

Most experimental measurements have been performed with rotational and oscillatory viscometers, which offer advantages at low viscosities in particular. Besides these two traditional methods for measuring viscosities, a couple of studies also introduced the technique of isothermal compression for alloys in the semi-solid state, and even an optical basicity method for the viscosity of slags. As to numerical models, most published results show that the viscosity of liquid and semi-solid state metals can be described by the Arrhenius, Andrade, Kaptay or Budai–Bemkő–Kaptay equations.

The results indicated that the intermetallic phases in the Mg–2Gd–2Zn alloy consisted mainly of (Mg, Zn)3Gd phase whereas the Mg–2Gd–6Zn alloy consisted of both I (Mg3Zn6Gd) and (Mg, Zn)3Gd phases. In addition, few Mg–Gd and Mg–Zn binary phases were also present in both the alloys.

A small fraction of X phase (Mg12ZnGd) was also present in Mg–10Gd–2Zn alloy. Mg–10Gd–xZn alloys (x=2,6) exhibited higher yield strength due to the higher solute contents and the presence of LPSO phase in the matrix, but showed poor elongation due to the coarse continuous second phase at the boundary. Low Gd-containing alloys showed better elongation to failure and moderate strength due to the lower volume fraction of fine scale second phases. Corrosion resistances of the alloys decreased with increase in the total amount of alloying elements. Increase in Zn content from 2% to 6% in Mg–2Gd–xZn alloys did not alter the corrosion properties much; however, this increase in the high Gd-containing alloys had significant detrimental effects on the corrosion properties due to the significant increase in the volume of the second phases. In all the alloys, galvanic corrosion due to the second phase and filiform corrosion dominated the earlier stages of corrosion, and after long immersion times, the second phase, (Mg,Zn)3Gd, was found to become unstable and dissolved, leading to intergranular corrosion.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2013.12.016} (DOI).

This work investigates the fatigue strength and cyclic deformation behavior of an extruded Mg10Gd1Nd in comparison to Mg10Gd and possible benchmark alloys WE43 and AZ31. The influence of the alloying element Nd is remarkable. The finite life fatigue strengths of Mg10Gd1Nd in the SN-diagram (Wöhler curve) are strongly improved compared to Mg10Gd and almost reach the strength values of WE43. Fracture surface morphology and crack propagation are discussed with attention given to low and high cycle fatigue. The very fine grain size, as the result of dynamic recrystallization during extrusion, offers high elongation at fracture. Therefore the residual fracture surface, where rapid failure occurs, is rather small in the high cycle fatigue samples. The size of the slow crack growth area has been determined by the appearance of benchmark ridges and fatigue striations and is discussed in correlation to stress and number of cycles. Scatter behavior of fatigue life was investigated by optical microcopy. The microstructure consists of second phase alignments in the extrusion direction, which differs in length, precipitate size and distance. Crack branching appears depending on microstructure and the load applied.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/MSF.783-786.419} (DOI).

Our results show that application of 5% pre-deformation increases the precipitation hardening response of the material and decreases the annealing time by 50%. The dislocations introduced during the pre-deformation process act as predominant nucleation sites and result in a higher number of precipitates of smaller size. During the thermomechanical treatments, the work hardening behavior is altered by the state of the precipitates, namely, under-aged, peak-aged and over-aged. After the elastic–plastic transition, under-aged and peak-aged materials show a continuously decreasing work-hardening rate, while the over-aged material has an initial constant work-hardening rate. The absolute values of the work hardening rate are far less sensitive to the precipitation stage compared to aluminum alloys; a fact that explains the low work hardening capacity of magnesium compared to aluminum.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2014.04.095} (DOI).

The processing map for the base TX32–0.4Al alloy exhibited two dynamic recrystallization (DRX) domains in the ranges (1) 300–360 °C and 0.0003–0.001 s−1 and (2) 400–500 °C and 0.003–0.7 s−1. While 0.2% Si addition did not result in any significant change in the processing map of the base TX32–0.4Al alloy, 0.4% Si addition has enhanced hot workability by widening the processing window(s) and by reducing flow instability. The rate controlling mechanism in Domain 1 is identified as climb, whereas it is cross-slip in Domain 2. When the Si content is increased to 0.6 and 0.8%, the volume fraction of hard intermetallic particles has increased nearly two fold. The processing map for the alloy with 0.6% Si addition exhibited an additional Domain 3 at higher temperatures and high strain rates (475–500 °C and 0.01–10 s−1). However, cracking has occurred in Domain 1 due to void formation at hard particles. In Domains 2 and 3, DRX occurred predominantly by basal slip with climb as a recovery process, as confirmed by the resulting basal texture and tilt type sub-boundary structure. This is attributed to the large back stress generated by the increased volume fraction of intermetallic particles due to which the extensive activation of basal slip required considerably high temperatures. Increase in the volume fraction of hard particles due to higher Si content reduces the flow instability by generating a high rate of entropy production through increasing the nucleation sites for power dissipation and enhances the occurrence of void formation and/or ductile fracture.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2014.03.087} (DOI).

These stable intermetallic phases were considered to be effective to suppress the deformation by grain boundary sliding, leading to the improvement of creep properties. Based on this point, adding the alloying elements to form the stable intermetallics with high melting point became a popular way to develop the new creep resistant magnesium alloys. The present investigation, however, shows that the creep properties of binary Mg–Sn alloy are still poor even though the addition of Sn possibly results in the precipitation of thermal stable Mg2Sn at grain boundaries. That means other possible mechanisms function to affect the creep response. It is finally found that the poor creep resistance is attributed to the segregation of Sn at dendritic and grain boundaries. Based on this observation, new approaches to improve the creep resistance are suggested for magnesium alloys because most currently magnesium alloys have the commonality with the Mg–Sn alloys.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jma.2014.03.003} (DOI).

The onset temperature of the hot tearing was identified from the force drop in the force–temperature–time curve, and the corresponding onset solid fraction was obtained from the fraction solid–temperature curve derived using Scheil non-equilibrium solidification model. The results indicate that the onset solid fraction for the hot tear decreased as the Gd content increased. The susceptibility defined by the total tear volume measurements by the X-ray micro-tomography technique indicates that the susceptibility increased with increase in Gd content to reach a maximum at 2 pct and then reduced with further increase in Gd to reach a minimum with 10 pct Gd. The high susceptibility observed in Mg-2 pct Gd was attributed to its cellular or columnar grain structure, which facilitated easy tear propagation, high strain at the onset with little amount of remaining liquid. In contrast, the lowest susceptibility of Mg-10 pct Gd was related to its equiaxed grain structure, which effectively accommodated the strain during solidification by reorienting themselves and the ability of the Gd-rich liquid to partially or completely refill the tear at the end of solidification. The results also indicate that the increase in mold temperature [723 K (450 °C)] significantly reduced the total crack volume and hence reduced the susceptibility, which was attributed to the increase in the hot spot size and lesser total stain at the hot spot region.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1007/s11661-012-1593-7} (DOI).

The experimental results indicate that, the hot tearing susceptibility defined by the total crack volume, which was measured by the wax penetration method, decreases with increasing the content of Y at a mould temperature of 250 °C. The reduced susceptibility is attributed to the effect of Y on the solidification behaviour: it shortens the freezing range and reduces the grain size. The highest susceptibility is observed for Mg-1.5Zn-0.2Y alloy. It is caused by its coarse microstructure and relatively larger solidification range. In contrast, the lowest susceptibility is observed for Mg-1.5Zn-4Y alloy with a small equiaxed grain microstructure.

In the present paper, the creep behaviours of Mg-Sn and Mg-Sn-Ca alloys were examined at the constant temperature and different stresses. The measurements of stress exponents indicate that the dislocation climbing is the dominant mechanism during the creep of Mg-3Sn or Mg-3Sn-2Ca alloys. The poor creep resistance of the binary Mg-3Sn alloy is caused by the easy movement of dislocation and the segregation of Sn at the boundaries. Both T4 and T6 heat treatments improve the creep resistance of Mg-3Sn alloy due to the alleviation of Sn segregation at grain boundaries and the precipitation of Mg2Sn particles, respectively. Ca is an effective alloying element to increase the creep resistance of Mg-Sn alloys. The Ca addition leads to the formation of thermal stable phases Mg2Ca and CaMgSn in Mg-3Sn-Ca alloys. These two phases effectively hinder the movement of dislocations and the sliding of grain boundaries. On the other hand, the addition of Ca alleviates the segregation of Sn by the interaction of Ca with Mg and Sn to form the phase CaMgSn.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1111/ffe.12000} (DOI).

However, formation of gas cavities after implantation of magnesium alloys is widely reported in literature. The gas composition and the concentration of in these bubbles are not clearly known as only a few studies using techniques not specific for were done about 60 years ago. Currently, many researchers assume that these cavities contain primarily hydrogen because it is a product of magnesium dissolution in aqueous media. In order to clearly answer this question, we implanted rare earth containing magnesium alloy disks in mice and determined the concentration of hydrogen gas for up to ten days using an amperometric hydrogen sensor and mass spectrometric measurements. We were able to directly monitor the hydrogen concentration over a period of ten days and to show that the gas cavities only contained a low concentration of hydrogen gas, even shortly after the formation of the cavities. This means that hydrogen must be exchanged very quickly after implantation. To confirm these results, hydrogen gas was directly injected subcutaneously and most of the hydrogen gas was found to exchange within the first hour after injection. Overall, our results disprove the common misbelief that these cavities mainly contain hydrogen and show how quickly this gas is exchanged with the surrounding tissue.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actbio.2012.10.008} (DOI).

The calculated results are compared with experimental results determined using a constrained rod casting (CRC) apparatus with a load cell and data acquisition system. Both thermodynamic calculations and experimental measurements indicate that the hot tearing susceptibility as a function of Y content follows the “λ” shape. The experimental results show that HTS first increases with increase in Y content, reaches the maximum at about 0.9 wt.%Y and then decreases with further increase the Y content. The maximum susceptibility observed in Mg–0.9 wt.%Y alloy is attributed to its coarsened columnar microstructure, large solidification range and small amount of eutectic at the time of hot tearing. The initiation of hot cracks is monitored during CRC experiments. It corresponds to a drop in load increment on the force curves. The critical solid fractions at which the hot cracks are initiated are in the range from 0.9 to 0.99. It is also found that it decreases with increasing the content of Y. The hot cracks propagate along the dendritic or grain boundaries through the interdendritic separation or tearing of interconnected dendrites.

Mg10GdxNd alloys with an average coarse grain size of 500 µm were cast by permanent mold direct chill casting. Hardness values vary due to the inhomogeneous microstructure formed during the solidification process consisting of dendrite arms with preferred orientation direction. The effect of dissolving particles during solution heat treatment (T4) and isothermal ageing (T6) was observed to a different extent depending on Nd content. Isothermal ageing promotes a duplex microstructure of coarse β1 phase precipitates and regions containing much finer precipitates. Post processing by direct extrusion changes the microstructure dramatically to an average grain size of 15 µm. The microstructure after hot extrusion shows segregation of precipitates in the extrusion direction. Near this alignment of second phases hardness and plastic deformation differ from precipitates enriched in RE elements due to depleted regions of solid solution around them. This phenomenon is known from alloying element segregation to grain boundaries. Depending on the amount and location of second phases in the as-cast microstructure and degree of cold work, recrystallization leads to an inhomogeneous microstructure, consisting of fine grains (15 µm) and very fine grains, where second phases act as nuclei during the recrystallization process. Furthermore, mechanical testing (fatigue) causes an increase in dislocation density by work hardening and extensive twinning near the fractured surface. Here the hardening effect interferes with grain size strengthening.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/MSF.765.491} (DOI).

In addition, determination of the magnesium release of the electrolytes was performed using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry and zone coulometry. Six specimens were prepared from each alloy. Anodic polarization measurements ranging from –150 mV ~E corr to –1200 mV were performed with both of the electrolytes. From each measurement, corrosion current density, the breakdown or pitting potential and its corresponding current density, zero potential, the polarization resistance, the corrosion rate were calculated. The magnesium release of the electrolytes was compared with the calculated values using Faraday’s law. For zone coulometry, five different trials were completed, and the electrical charge was calculated for each potential range of all magnesium alloys tested and for both electrolytes. Lower corrosion values were found in AP than in PBS− for all measurements. However, the rankings of the alloys are similar in both the electrolytes. Zone coulometry using small potential ranges and determination of ion release can be additional evaluation tools for magnesium alloys.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1680/emr.13.00023} (DOI).

While the compressive strength decreases with the increase in temperature, for Sn/Ca up to 2.5, a plateau occurs in 100–175 °C, which is attributed to the strengthening by Mg2Ca.

The correlation between in vitro and in vivo results is poor. Standard cytotoxicity tests mimic the clinical situation to only a limited extent, since in vivo proteins and macromolecules in the blood and interstitial liquid will influence the corrosion behaviour and, hence, biocompatibility of Mg alloys to a significant extent. We therefore developed a modified cytotoxicity test simulating the in vivo conditions by use of bovine serum as the extraction vehicle instead of the cell culture medium routinely used in standard cytotoxicity testing according to ISO 10993-5. The modified extraction test was applied to eight experimental Mg alloys. Cytotoxicity was assayed by inhibition of cell metabolic activity (XTT test). When extraction of the alloy samples was performed in serum instead of cell culture medium the metabolic activity was significantly less inhibited for six of the eight alloys. The reduction in apparent cytotoxicity under serum extraction conditions was most pronounced for MgZn1 (109% relative metabolic activity with serum extracts vs. 26% in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM)), for MgY4 (103% in serum vs. 32% in DMEM) and for MgAl3Zn1 (84% vs. 17%), resulting in a completely different cytotoxicity ranking of the tested materials when serum extraction was used.

Tomograms with (1.4 μm)3/voxel have been recorded every minute while cooling the melt from 600 °C at a cooling rate of 5 K min−1 to 540 °C in the solid state. The solidification process starts with the three-dimensional evolution of the α-Al dendritic structure at 590 °C. The growth of the α-Al dendrites is described by curvature parameters that represent the coarsening quantitatively, and ends in droplet-like shapes of the secondary dendrite arms at 577 °C. There, the eutectic valley of α-Al/Mg2Si is reached, forming initially octahedral Mg2Si particles preferentially at the bases of the secondary dendrite arms. The eutectic grows with seaweed-like Mg2Si structures, with increasing connectivity. During this solidification stage Fe-aluminides form and expand as thin objects within the interdendritic liquid. Finally, the remaining liquid freezes as ternary α-Al/Mg2Si/Si eutectic at 558 °C, increasing further the connectivity of the intermetallic phases. The frozen alloy consists of four phases exhibiting morphologies characteristic of their mode of solidification: α-Al dendrites, eutectic α-Al/Mg2Si “Chinese script” with Fe-aluminides, and interpenetrating α-Al/Mg2Si/Si ternary eutectic.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actamat.2012.01.024} (DOI).

In the standard electrolytes the coatings are crystalline while they are amorphous if particles are present though the energy input (process parameters) was more or less the same. Only the presence and incorporation of the particles into the coating has obviously induced a low temperature reactive liquid phase formation process, reaching a coating composition with glass forming ability which is likely due to the fast cooling by the electrolyte. In contrast, the coating formation in standard electrolytes has to be considered more like a solid phase sintering. However the results clearly indicate that the sintering of reaction/conversion products by the high energy discharges is a very important step in the coating formation and that the sintering by the discharges in PEO processing can be influenced by the use of additives similar to traditional sintering processes.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.surfcoat.2012.10.013} (DOI).

Several attempts have been made in the past to model Bolt Load Retention (BLR) behaviour of Mg-alloys using different approaches. It must be mentioned that whereas these models attempt to predict BLR of the alloys investigated, the results of the models differ in most cases with the experiments by great margin. The BLR behaviour of Mg-alloy is geometry and material dependent. This means that, the configuration of the test sample, the compliance of the bolt/joint and creep response of the material under investigation play important role in determining the joint response under load and temperature. In this work, BLR and creep behaviour of Ca modified AS41 is investigated and compared to that of Mg4Al and AS41. A compliance-creep approach is used to model the response of these Mg-Al alloys at bolted joints. The model prediction of the BLR response and experimental results as obtained in this work are in good agreement. AS41+0.15 % Ca shows improved creep and BLR properties up to 175 °C. A correlation between the microstructures, creep and BLR results reveal that the formation of a ternary CaMgSi phase is responsible for the improved elevated temperature behaviour.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/MSF.690.278} (DOI).

In order to compare with the calculated results, the susceptibility of hot tearing was measured using previously developed quantitative experimental method. It is found that the simulation results are in agreement with the experimental results. Both of them show that the curves of the susceptibility of hot tearing versus the content of Zn has a typical ‘Λ’ shape. With increasing content of Zn, the susceptibility of hot tearing first increases, reaches the maximum at 2‐4%Zn and then decreases again.

Newly developed alloys are based on the binary system Mg-Sn. Sn as major alloying element was chosen due to its high solid solubility over a wide temperature range and due to the possible formation of Mg2Sn intermetallic precipitates with a high melting temperature of about 770 °C. These characteristics suggest that a fairly large volume fraction of thermally stable Mg2Sn particles can be formed during solidification. This makes it possible that the Mg-Sn alloys can be developed as creep resistant magnesium alloys and/or wrought magnesium alloys. Previous investigations indicate that the Mg-Sn alloys have a comparable or even better creep property than AE42 alloy. This paper presents an overview about recent works on the developments of Mg-Sn alloys performed in MagIC, Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht Centre, which includes: microstructural characterization, creep deformation and hot deformation, and corrosion behaviour.

When SBF are used for corrosion measurement, the open question is, how well they match the conditions in the human body. The aim of the study was to compare the corrosion behaviour of different experimental magnesium alloys in human whole blood and PBSminus (phosphate buffered saline w/o Ca and Mg) as a simulated body fluid by gravimetric weight measurements and microscopic evaluation. Eight different experimental magnesium alloys, containing neither Mn nor other additives, were manufactured. With these alloys, a static immersion test in PBSminus and a dynamic test using the Chandler-loop model with human whole blood over 6 h were performed. During the static immersion test, the samples were weighed every hour. During the dynamic test, the specimens were weighed before and after the 6 h incubation period in the Chandler-loop. From both tests, the total mass change was calculated for each alloy and the values were compared. Additionally, microscopic pictures from the samples were taken at the end of the test period. All alloys showed different corrosion behaviour in both tests, especially the alloys with high aluminium content, MgAl9 and MgAl9Zn1. Generally, alloys in PBS showed a weight gain due to generation of a microscopically visible corrosion layer, while in the blood test system a more or less distinct weight loss was observed. When alloys are ranked according to corrosion susceptibility, the results differ also between the test systems. The MgAl9 alloy, showing the most pronounced corrosion in PBS, was one of the least corroding alloys under simulated in vivo conditions in blood. Thus, the ranking concerning clinical suitability of the magnesium alloys tested in this study is different, depending on the used electrolyte and the kind of method. For a possible clinical use, the alloy MgAl9Zn1 might be preferable for further investigations.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mseb.2011.04.007} (DOI).

In this paper, the influence of additions of 0.4 wt.%Al and 0.4 wt.%Si on the compressive strength and hot working characteristics of TX32 is reported. Although the room temperature compressive strength improved marginally with the alloying additions, the drop in higher-temperature strength is significant. By comparing with the alloy having only 0.4% Al, it is inferred that the Si addition is responsible for this deterioration. The hot working behavior is characterized by processing maps which revealed that TX32 exhibits two domains of dynamic recrystallization occurring in the temperature and strain rate ranges: (1) 300–350 °C and 0.0003–0.001 s−1 and (2) 390–500 °C and 0.005–0.6 s−1. In Al and Si containing TX32, both the domains moved to higher temperatures and the flow instability is reduced thereby improving the hot workability. In both the domains, the apparent activation energy is 177 kJ/mol, which is higher than that for self-diffusion in magnesium implying that there is a significant contribution from the back stress generated by the hard particles present in the matrix.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2011.05.088} (DOI).

Voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy were applied to study on the one hand the effect of microstructure of the working electrode and on the other hand the effect of proteins in the electrolyte. Two types of alloy samples were produced (i) by permanent mould casting and (ii) by gas atomization followed by extrusion. The results showed that the microstructure was strongly influenced by the production process. The extruded samples showed an improved homogeneity of phase distribution compared with cast samples as it was aimed for. Due to increased homogeneity it was expected to find higher corrosion resistance. However, the electrochemical results are contradictory and suggest an additional phase in the extruded microstructure. Using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) the secondary magnesium rare earths (RE) phase of extruded samples showed differing composition than of cast samples as well as additional oxide phases. After the samples were electrochemically investigated in cell medium with and without fetal calf serum (FCS), an impact of FCS was detected in voltammetry due to the length of the polarisation curve. As the tip of the mini cell in contact with the working electrode is small, developing gases tend to spread on the working electrode and break the contact of liquid to the counter electrode; which results in disrupting the current flow. This effect was more pronounced when rising the voltage and was found reduced when using electrolytes with FCS. Impedance spectra were slightly deformed by FCS, seen as a kinetic effect but not as a basic differing corrosion reaction. The insight into the effects of FCS was provided by the mini cell system as this system enables to collect entire series of measurements. In contrast of two single measurements, those series reflected the slight difference caused by FCS.

These reveal that the homogenization treatment has only a marginal effect on the hot workability, the result attributable to the high thermal stability of CaMgSn particles in the microstructure. High temperature extrusion, however, lowers the hot working temperature significantly (by about 150°C) and this has been attributed to grain refinement during primary processing.

The Al content in the selected alloys was 0.4 wt% and the Si content was varied from 0–0.8 wt% in steps of 0.2 wt.%. The alloys were cast in pre-heated permanent molds. Cylindrical specimens machined from the cast billets were tested in compression in the temperature range 25–250 °C at a strain rate of 0.0001 s–1. The alloy with 0.4 wt% Al shows an increased strength at all test temperatures compared with the TX32 base alloy. This is attributed to a solid solution strengthening of Al in Mg. The alloy with 0.4 wt% Al and 0.2 wt% Si has compressive strength that is closer to that of the TX32 alloy.

In each grain one or more “hillocks” exist, enriched with carbon, manganese and aluminium. This is possibly related to the inhomogeneous nucleation of alpha-magnesium.

Processing maps, developed on the basis of the temperature and strain rate dependence of flow stress, exhibited two domains in which dynamic recrystallization occurs. Both these are in the temperature range 325–500 °C, with one in the lower strain rate range (0.0003–0.003 s−1) and the other in the higher strain rate range (1–10 s−1), the optimum temperature being 400 °C. Kinetic analysis in the above two domains yielded apparent activation energy values of 196 and 168 kJ/mole, respectively, which are higher than that for self-diffusion in pure magnesium suggesting that the large volume fraction of CaMgSn intermetallic particles in the matrix causes significant back stress. In the change-over strain rate range (0.003–0.3 s−1), unusual grain size changes have occurred which may render microstructural control difficult.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2008.10.041} (DOI).

It could be seen that the minimum creep rates of compressive creep tests were smaller compared to tensile creep tests, and the difference increased with increasing applied stress. Stress exponents, n, were determined according to the Norton-equation and it was found that a threshold stress σ had to be introduced into the analysis.

The change in hardness is discussed based on the microstructural observations. Some suggestions are given concerning future design of alloy compositions in order to improve high temperature creep properties even further. It is shown that the microstructure of the squeeze-cast AE42 alloy is stable at high temperature 450 °C. The subsequent solution and ageing treatments have a limited effect on the hardness. The weak age-hardening is attributed to the precipitation of small amount of Mg17Al12-phase with the use of about 0.7 wt.% aluminum.

An approach to this challenge might be the application of metal matrix composite (MMC) based on magnesium alloys. In this study, a MMC made of magnesium alloy AZ91D as a matrix and hydroxyapatite (HA) particles as reinforcements have been investigated in vitro for mechanical, corrosive and cytocompatible properties. The mechanical properties of the MMC-HA were adjustable by the choice of HA particle size and distribution. Corrosion tests revealed that HA particles stabilised the corrosion rate and exhibited more uniform corrosion attack in artificial sea water and cell solutions. The phase identification showed that all samples contained hcp-Mg, Mg17Al12, and HA before and after immersion. After immersion in artificial sea water CaCO3 was found on MMC-HA surfaces, while no formation of CaCO3 was found after immersion in cell solutions with and without proteins. Co-cultivation of MMC-HA with human bone derived cells (HBDC), cells of an osteoblasts lineage (MG-63) and cells of a macrophage lineage (RAW264.7) revealed that RAW264.7, MG-63 and HBDC adhere, proliferate and survive on the corroding surfaces of MMC-HA. In summary, biodegradable MMC-HA are cytocompatible biomaterials with adjustable mechanical and corrosive properties.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biomaterials.2006.12.027} (DOI).

Reaction products could change the matrix composition and alter the matrix in a physical metallurgical manner, such as the microstructure and ageing behavior. The present work investigated the microstructure in the interfacial regions and in the matrix, as well as the ageing behavior in Saffil®- and Kaowool®-fiber reinforced composites using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, differential thermal analysis and microhardness tests. The effects of reinforcements on the distribution of the alloying elements and on the interfacial reactions were investigated and discussed. The interfacial reaction mechanisms were analyzed based on thermodynamics and kinetics. Finally, the relationship between the interfacial reaction and ageing behavior was discussed. It was shown that the distribution of the alloying elements is affected by the addition of fibers. The degree of interfacial reaction depends on the reinforcement composition. The growth of the reaction products is controlled by the cation diffusion along the new interface between reaction product and fiber. The ageing hardening is weakened due to the depletion of the alloying element magnesium; caused by the interfacial reaction.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actamat.2005.04.039} (DOI).

In these engine components, the dimensional stability is of great concern. Thermal cycling experiments can approximately simulate the real working conditions of the materials and give an evaluation of the dimensional changes during their service in the changing temperature environments. Due to the fact that in metal matrix composites the thermal strain is dependent on the phase transformation, the matrix plastic yielding and the physical damage of reinforcement, analysis of thermal strain curves could allow not only insight into their thermal expansion behavior but also into the phase transformation and possible matrix plastic deformation behavior caused by large internal thermal stresses. Compared with the thermal strain curve, the instantaneous CTE curve can clearly supply more information because it is the differential of thermal strain over temperature. It is useful to differentiate whether the appearance of a knee on the thermal strain curve is caused by the phase transformation and/or by the matrix plastic deformation, especially in metal matrix composites with age hardenable matrix. In the present paper, the aging behaviors in both the unreinforced and ceramic reinforced AlSi12CuMgNi piston alloys are investigated and discussed by analyzing the instantaneous CTE curve, DTA curve and hardness tests. The matrix plastic deformation caused by thermal stresses is discussed based on the observation of CTE divergence in the longitudinal and transverse directions. The effects of both the SiO2 content and subsequent heat treatment on the critical temperature, above which the CTE divergence occurs, are discussed. Finally, the effects of precipitation and matrix plastic deformation on the residual strain after thermal cycling are also preliminary evaluated.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compscitech.2004.07.002} (DOI).
