New kink-band formation mechanism discovered in Zn-Al alloy with mille-feuille microstructure

The discovery of kink-band strengthening in some Mg-alloys has focused attention on the development of mille-feuille-structured alloys composed of alternating stacks of plate-like soft and hard phases. In this study, we focused on the Zn-6.0mass%Al alloy that is composed of hcp-Zn and fcc-Al, and is...
