Abstract
Abstract Quasicrystalline icosahedral equilibrium phase was found in Mg – Y – Nd (WE43) alloys with the addition of 12 wt.% and 25 wt.% Zn constituting grain boundary eutectic phases. In response to the isochronal annealing, morphologically similar precipitates of phases with the same structure as those developing during heat treatment of binary Mg-8 wt.% Zn alloy at temperatures higher than 150 °C were observed, namely β (b-centered monoclinic crystal structure a = 2.596 nm, b = 1.428 nm, c = 0.524 nm, = 102.5°) and β (hexagonal MgZn2). The evolution of the resistivity and microhardness during isochronal annealing corresponds to the phase transformations and the morphology changes of the phases observed. Dislocations with the c Burgers vector component generated due to the presence of icosahedral phase are responsible for the improved formability as compared to the WE43 alloy.
