While its anisotropy and tension-compression asymmetry have been thoroughly studied under uniaxial loading, the understanding for shear loading is still lacking. This study employed a rolled AZ31B plate with typical basal texture to investigate the shear behaviors. Positive and negative simple shear experiments were performed at different angles in the transverse plane, whereby the visco-plastic self-consistent model was calibrated to reveal the deformation mechanisms and predict the mechanical responses at various orientations. Positive-negative shear asymmetry is present because extension twinning preferentially operates in one shear direction but is suppressed in the opposite direction. Simple shear induces multiple twin variants, thus impedes twin growth and slows the consumption of matrix, as compared to in-plane compression. For slip dominated simple shear, the interaction between loading-induced rigid body rotation and slip-induced crystal rotation produces distinct hardening behaviors, namely orthogonally asymmetric mechanical responses at complementary loading angles, which is largely absent in uniaxial loading. Finally, simulation results verify that positive-negative shear asymmetry appears only when the deviatoric normal stress on the sheet plane is non-zero. Positive-negative shear asymmetry persists except for the conditions of shear plane parallel to sheet plane, or shear direction parallel or perpendicular to rolling direction.","PeriodicalId":16214,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Magnesium and Alloys","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143083121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How the effect of different metal-reinforcement phases on the PEO discharge and coating growth behavior of Mg-matrix composites remains unclear. In this work, the influence of three metal-reinforcement phases (Nb, Mn, and Cu) on voltage evolution, coating morphology, coating phase composition, and corrosion resistance was investigated. The results indicate that Nb-reinforcement undergoes continuous spark discharges, resulting in the formation of a “volcano-like” localized morphology. In contrast, Mn and Cu-reinforcements do not directly participate in PEO discharges; instead, their oxidation products form “nodule-like” protrusions that limit the voltage rise rate. These behaviors are attributed to differences in the properties of the oxidation products of metal reinforcements and the Mg matrix, such as stability, Pilling–Bedworth ratio (PBR), band gap, dielectric constant, and conductivity. These characteristics influence the electrical structure of the PEO coating, thereby altering the PEO discharge and coating growth behavior of the composites. Finally, two models are proposed to describe the PEO discharge mechanisms in the two types of metal-reinforced AZ91-based composites.","PeriodicalId":16214,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Magnesium and Alloys","volume":"77 2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143083122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, non-uniform microstructures and coarse secondary phases in conventional casting methods hinder the effectiveness of these treatments, leading to reduced ductility, inconsistent properties, and prolonged durations. To overcome these challenges, this study introduces the Strain Integrated Gas-Infusion (SIGI) casting process that integrates strain and gas infusion in the semi-solid state. The impact of the SIGI process on the solution treatment and aging kinetics of AZ91 Mg alloy is explored. The SIGI process refines α-Mg and β-Mg17Al12 phases, significantly enhancing mechanical properties. Experimental and quantitative analyses reveal that the SIGI process accelerates solute atom dissolution, reducing solution treatment times by half, and promotes faster nucleation and growth of precipitates during aging, shortening aging times by one-third. These improvements result in substantial gains in ultimate tensile strength (∼40–50 %) and ductility (∼20–30 %) after age hardening compared to conventional casting. The mechanisms driving these changes, including enhanced nucleation rates, reduced diffusion distances, and microstructural refinement, are discussed. These findings demonstrate the potential of the SIGI casting process to advance magnesium alloy performance for engineering applications.","PeriodicalId":16214,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Magnesium and Alloys","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143077168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their high thermodynamic stabilities and slow kinetics lead to relatively high desorption temperatures, which severely limit the wide application of MgH2. In this study, the inclusion of vanadium induced the formation Ni-Co metal–organic frameworks (MOF) from a NiCo layered double hydroxide (LDH), thereby increasing the number of defects and vacancies, and improving the hydrogen storage properties of MgH2. The synthesized NiCo-MOF/V-O-doped MgH2 system demonstrates excellent hydrogen storage capacity. More specifically, 5 wt.% of H2 was released over 20 min at a relatively low dehydrogenation temperature of 250 °C, and almost complete dehydrogenation was achieved at 300 °C for 5 min. In addition, at 125 °C, the hydrogen storage material absorbed 5.5 wt.% H2 in 10 min. Furthermore, the activation energy of dehydrogenation was determined to be 69.588 ± 6.302 kJ ·mol−1 which is significantly lower than that of the ball-milled MgH2 (i.e., 118.649 ± 2.825 kJ ·mol−1). It was therefore inferred that during dehydrogenation process, a Mg2Ni/Mg2NiH4 hydrogen pump is formed by Ni, while the V-H and Co-H bonds formed by Co and V during the reaction act synergistically to catalyze the absorption and desorption of hydrogen, thereby increasing the hydrogen storage capacity of MgH2. These experiments provide new perspectives on the commercial application of MgH2.","PeriodicalId":16214,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Magnesium and Alloys","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143077169","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results indicate that annealing can significantly lessen the “pseudo-anode” regions, thereby changing the dissolution mode of the matrix and achieving an effective dissolution during discharge. Additionally, p-type semiconductor characteristic of discharge product film could suppress the self-corrosion reaction without reducing the polarization of anode.

The employee of membrane technology for CO2 gas separation has garnered significant interest among researchers. However, this method encounters challenges related to selectivity and permeability. Therefore, modifying and reinforcing the polymer membranes to improve gas separation performance seems essential. Among the various methods for polymer membrane modification, modification with magnesium-based fillers to prepare a mixed matrix membrane (MMM) is considered an efficient method. Owing to magnesium metal's low weight, low density, high strength, and good selectivity, magnesium-based materials (Mg-based materials) have more porosity, higher available surface area, more adsorption sites, lighter weight, and more gas absorption tendency than other fillers, which makes them an attractive choice for the preparation of gas separation MMMs. This research deals with the introduction of Mg-based materials, various methods of synthesis of Mg-based materials, different methods of introducing Mg-based materials into the membrane matrix, and their effect on the performance of MMMs in CO2 gas separation applications. Therefore, this review can provide researchers with light horizons in using the high potential of Mg-based materials as efficient fillers in MMMs to achieve excellent permeability and selectivity and generally improve their performance in CO2 gas separation applications.","PeriodicalId":16214,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Magnesium and Alloys","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143072179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
