Abstract
As-cast Mg-Zn-Mn-Ca alloys are the candidates for medical implants. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the as-cast Mg-Zn-Mn-Ca alloys were investigated by using optical microscope (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results suggested that the addition of Zn significantly refined the grain size of the as-cast magnesium alloys, and hence improved the mechanical properties of the alloys. Meanwhile, the secondary phase mainly distributed in the grain boundaries and the solution treatment made parts of secondary phases dissolved into the matrix, resulting in enhancement of the plasticity of the as-cast Mg-Zn-Mn-Ca alloy.
