Significantly Enhancing the Ignition/Compression/Damping Response of Monolithic Magnesium by Addition of Sm2O3 Nanoparticles

The present study reports the development of Mg–Sm2O3 nanocomposites as light-weight materials for weight critical applications targeted to reduce CO2 emissions, particularly in the transportation sector. Mg-0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 vol % Sm2O3 nanocomposites are synthesized using a powder metallurgy metho...
