X-ray diffraction of as-cast and homogenized Experimental Alloy 1
X-ray diffraction pattern of as-cast and homogenized Experimental Alloy 1. Characteristic peaks of only α-Mg were obtained from (10-1 0), (0002), (10-11), and (10-12) planes. No... -
Grain size of as-cast and homogenized Experimental Alloy 1
Optical micrographs were obtained from the as–cast and homogenized Experimental Alloy 1, from each of the three distinct regions of the ingot labeled top, middle and bottom.... -
Energy dispersive spectroscopy of as-cast and homogenized Experimental Alloy 1
Investigations using SEM revealed the presence of a uniform distribution of AlMn-based (Al8Mn5) intermetallic particles in Mg matrix in both the as-cast and the homogenized... -
Compression testing of homogenized Experimental Alloy 1
Compression testing of two homogenized Experimental Alloy 1 samples was performed at room temperature (RT) at 10-3 s-1 on cylindrical samples (10 mm in diameter and 12 mm in... -
Hardness of as-cast and homogenized Experimental Alloy 1
Ten hardness measurements were obtained using a Vickers hardness testing machine with a load of 100 g and a dwell time of 10 s from top, middle and bottom of as-cast and...
