| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have investigated the effect of Al and Zn contents on mechanical properties and microstructures of Mg-8Gd-4Y(wt.%) based alloy. The addition of 0.5wt.% of Al dramatically decreases the grain size of cast material; the alloy containig Al shows fine grain size of about 50μm in the as-cast state. Addition of Zn prevents dynamic recrystallization during the extrusion, so the Zn containing extruded alloy forms bimodal grain structure, which consists of fine recrystallized grains and unrecrystallized grains. The presence of unrecrystallized grains effectively improve strengths of the extruded material; therefore, we find that simultaneous addition of Al and Zn to Mg-8Gd-4Y(wt.%) alloy is important to achieve high strength and ductility.
