Kinetic study on the surface oxidation of the molten Mg-9Al-0.5Zn-0.3Be alloy
Be addition make the oxide film formed on the molten magnesium alloy denser and tougher, thus the burning of the Mg during melting was suppressed. AES was employed to study the composition of the oxide film gr...

Formation of a lamellar 14H-type long period stacking ordered structure in an as-cast Mg–Gd–Zn–Zr alloy
A novel as-cast Mg96.82Gd2Zn1Zr0.18 alloy was produced by conventional ingot metallurgy. By scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope observations, its as-cast microstructure is mainly com...

Hydrogen responses of ultrathin Pd films and nanowire networks with a Ti buffer layer
We report on hydrogen responses of ultrathin films and nanowire networks of palladium on titanium buffered silicon substrates and filtration membranes, respectively. We found that in both systems signatures su...

Cyclic Deformation Behavior of a Rare-Earth Containing Extruded Magnesium Alloy: Effect of Heat Treatment
The present study was aimed at evaluating strain-controlled cyclic deformation behavior of a rare-earth (RE) element containing Mg-10Gd-3Y-0.5Zr (GW103K) alloy in different states (as-extruded, peak-aged (T5),...

Monotonic and Cyclic Deformation Behavior of a Silafont®-36 Cast Aluminum Alloy in an Overaged Condition
The aim of this study is to explore and understand the deformation mechanism in an overaged Al-Si high-pressure die cast alloy. Uniaxial tensile and strain-controlled low-cycle fatigue properties were correlat...
