Abstract:Abstract. In the present work, T6 heat treatment (solution treatment and subsequent aging) of the sand-cast Mg–10Gd–3Y–0.5Zr (wt.%) alloy was optimized by measuring both hardness vs aging time process curves and tensile properties of the differently T6 treated alloys at room temperature. Then the high temperature tensile properties of the studied alloys at the optimum T6 heat treatment were investigated systematically. The temperature range of the tensile tests was 25 °C to 300 °C. The results show that the op… 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.
