Abstract:Fine-grain and weak-texture magnesium alloys are the long-term development targets of lightweight structural materials. In this study, a new composite asymmetric extrusion (CAE) is developed, which, coupling with an asymmetric die and an asymmetric billet, is proposed to improve the strength–ductility of the Mg-3.8Al-1.1Sn-0.4Ca alloy. The influence of the asymmetric billet on the microstructure and mechanical properties was investigated. The findings revealed that the asymmetric billet can induce greater plas… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
