However, molten Mg and Mg alloys are ignited without the melt protective gases during melting and casting process due to their high reactivity. The purpose of this study is to investigate effects of Ca and CaO on pure Mg through microstructure observation, ignition test and phase analysis. With increasing Ca and CaO contents, the ignition resistance of Ca or CaO added pure Mg is increased and the grains are refined. As results of XRD and EDS, CaO is reduced to Ca in CaO added pure Mg. Mg2Ca phase is formed even in 0.1 wt.%CaO added pure Mg by reduction mechanism, while Mg2Ca phase is formed over 1.35 wt.% Ca added pure Mg.展开更多

CaO adding into pure Mg maintains the damping capacity and increases the ultimate tensile strength compared with those of pure Mg. Mg-CaO alloy can be regarded as cost-effective damping alloy with high damping and mechanical properties as well as with the advantages of improving oxidation and burning resistances.展开更多
