Results show that the Mg100-2xYxZnx alloys are composed of a-Mg, long period stacking ordered （LPSO） phase and eutectic structure phase （W phase）, and the Mg95Y2.5Zn2.5 alloy has the best comprehensive mechanical properties. Subsequently, the microstructure evolution of the optimized alloy Mg95Y2.5Zn2.5 during solidification and heat treatment processes was analyzed and discussed by means of OM, SEM, TEM, XRD and DTA. After heat treatment, the lamellar phase 14H-LPSO precipitated in a-Mg and W phase transforms into particle phase （MgyZn2）. Due to the compound reinforcement effect of the particle phase and LPSO phase （18R＋14H）, the mechanical properties of the alloy are enhanced. The tensile strength and elongation of the Mg95Y2.5Zn2.5 alloy is improved by 9.1% and 31.3% to 215 MPa and 10.5%, respectively, after solid-solution treatment.展开更多
