Implication

Randomized trial reveals improved strength and ductility in Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Mn alloy, suggesting effective microstructural strategies for alloy development.

Key Points

This research aims to enhance both strength and ductility in magnesium alloys through microstructural optimization.
Optimized bimodal structure in an extruded Mg-8Gd-4Y-1Zn-0.5Mn alloy
Multi-scale characterization of microstructure
Evaluation of elongation and tensile strength
Achieved 17.3% elongation and ultimate tensile strength of 372 MPa
Refined heterostructure led to improved stress-strain partitioning and GNDs gradient
Excessive coarse grains resulted in strain localization and early failure.
