Microstructure and Mechanical Strength of Attritor-Milled and Spark Plasma Sintered Mg-4Y-3Nd Alloy

Gas-atomized powder of an Mg-4Y-3Nd magnesium alloy was attritor-milled at room temperature in an argon atmosphere for two time periods—1.5 and 5 h. Subsequently, the gas-atomized powder as well as both of the milled powders were spark plasma sintered at four temperatures, 400, 450, 500, and 550 °C,...
