Abstract

Mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of a magnesium alloy with composition Mg–8.26Al–0.69Zn (wt.%) were investigated through novel homogenizing annealing, by which the enhancement of ultimate tensile strength by ∼65% and elongation by ∼110% can be achieved with no obvious loss of corrosion performance. The mechanism of property amelioration might be ascribed to microstructural modification by homogenizing annealing.
