Radial Heterogeneity of Microstructure and Mechanical Properties in a Resin Sand-Cast Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr Alloy

This study examines the radial microstructure, texture, tensile properties, and fracture morphology of a 100 mm diameter as-cast Mg-9.5Gd-0.6Y-0.2Zn-0.35Zr (wt.%) alloy prepared by low-pressure resin sand casting. XRD identifies α-Mg as the main resolved phase, while SEM/EDS reveals Zr-rich and Gd/Y-rich particles. The...
