High strength and ductility in a rare-earth free magnesium alloy processed by rotary swaging and flash annealing

Abstract Magnesium (Mg) is the lightest structural metal. It is promising for aerospace applications if its mechanical properties can be improved at a reasonable cost, without using expensive alloying elements or time-consuming processing routes. Here, we develop a rare-earth free Mg-Al-Ca alloy, pr...
