The role of Ca, Al and Zn on room temperature ductility and grain boundary cohesion of magnesium

It is know from literature that small additions (<1 wt%) of Ca, Al and Zn significantly improve the intrinsic ductility of Mg. The exact role of each element, both qualitatively and quantitatively, and their combined effects, however, are poorly understood. Here we achieved a much clearer view on...
