Abstract
The relatively low creep resistance of magnesium (Mg) alloys limits their application in high-temperature environments. Mg-Gd-based alloys, however, exhibit exceptional creep resistance, making them promising candidates for such applications. This review comprehensively examines recent advancements in the characterization and optimization of Mg-Gd-based alloys, focusing on key factors influencing their creep resistance. Key strategies for improving creep resistance include precise composition optimization with rare-earth elements such as Y and Nd, combined with Zn, Ca, Mn, and Al elements to alter precipitation behavior and enhance thermal stability. Thermomechanical processing has emerged as a critical tool to further improve creep resistance by tailoring grain structure and precipitation states. Furthermore, the review highlights the integration of machine learning to predict and design creep-resistant alloys, enabling cost-effective and accelerated development pathways. The discussion extends to future perspectives in optimizing Mg-Gd-based alloys for diverse industrial applications. This work serves as a detailed guideline for researchers and engineers aiming to advance the field of high-temperature Mg alloy development.
期刊介绍:
Metals and Materials International publishes original papers and occasional critical reviews on all aspects of research and technology in materials engineering: physical metallurgy, materials science, and processing of metals and other materials. Emphasis is placed on those aspects of the science of materials that are concerned with the relationships among the processing, structure and properties (mechanical, chemical, electrical, electrochemical, magnetic and optical) of materials. Aspects of processing include the melting, casting, and fabrication with the thermodynamics, kinetics and modeling.
