Abstract

The microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg3.5Zn0.6Gd and Mg3.5Zn0.6Gd1.5Cu alloys were investigated under different solidification conditions. The microstructure and phase constitutions of alloys were characterized using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis. The results indicate that the cooling rate plays an important role in grain refinement and phase constitutions of Mg – Zn – Gd alloys. In the cooling rate range from 4.8 K s− 1 to 18.5 K s− 1 for the Mg – Zn – Gd system, higher content of the icosahedral phase (I-phase) was obtained under the condition of higher cooling rate which accelerated the nucleation and growth of the I-phase. Under the cooling rate of 18.5 K s− 1, the mechanical properties of the Mg3.5Zn0.6Gd alloy were further improved by the high I-phase content due to its unique icosahedral structure, in addition to the contribution of grain refinement.

Keywords: Mg – Zn – Gd alloy; Quasicrystal; Laves phase; Mechanical properties; Cooling rate
