Characterization of a Mg95.5Zn1.5Y3 alloy both containing W phase and LPSO phase with or without heat treatment

The influence of solid solution treatment on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of as-cast Mg95.5Zn1.5Y3 alloy is characterized. The microstructure of the as-cast Mg95.5Zn1.5Y3 alloy mainly consisted of α-Mg, W (Mg3Zn3Y2) phase, and the long period stacking ordered (LPSO) (Mg12ZnY) phase. A...
