The Tensile Properties and Fracture Toughness of a Cast Mg-9Gd-4Y-0.5Zr Alloy

The Tensile Properties and Fracture Toughness of a Cast Mg-9Gd-4Y-0.5Zr Alloy

Low fracture toughness has been a major barrier for the structural applications of cast Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloys. In this work, the tensile properties and fracture toughness of a direct-chill-cast Mg-9Gd-4Y-0.5Zr (VW94K) alloy were investigated in different conditions, including its as-cast and as-homogeni...
