Investigation of Micromechanical Properties and Tribological Behavior of WE43 Magnesium Alloy after Deep Cryogenic Treatment Combined with Precipitation Hardening

This study investigated the micromechanical and tribological properties of WE43 alloy (Mg-Y-Nd-Zr) alloy subjected to cryogenic treatment and precipitation hardening. Microindentation tests were carried out in the range of load from 100 to 1000 mN. The introduction of deep cryogenic treatment (DCT)...
