The results show that the second dendrite arm spacing（SDAS） of Mg–6Zn–1Y and Mg–6Zn–3Y is reduced by 32 and 30% with increasing cooling rates（Rc） from 10.2 to 23 K/s, which can be predicted using a empirical model of SDAS=68 R 0：45：45cand SDAS=73 R 0c, respectively. The compressive strength of both alloys increases with increasing the cooling rate, which is attributed to the increase of volume fraction（Vf） of secondary phases under high cooling rate. The interaction of the cooling rate and component with SDAS has been theoretically analyzed using interdependence theory.展开更多
