Effect of Ca addition on the microstructure and the mechanical properties of asymmetric double-sided friction stir welded AZ61 magnesium alloy

The effects of 2% Ca addition on the microstructure and the mechanical properties of the asymmetric double-sided friction stir welded magnesium alloy AZ61 were investigated. Compared to the Ca-free AZ61magnesium alloy, the addition of 2% Ca significantly refines the grains in the stir zone after wel...
