Abstract

The spatial distribution of intermetallic particles in magnesium alloys is critical to achieve a favorable combination of mechanical properties. The initial microstructure of Thixomolded alloys, with a fine homogeneous grain structure and intermetallic particle distribution, results in particularly favorable behavior. However, the as-molded microstructure is far from equilibrium. In this manuscript, the Thixomolded structure is characterized before and after heat treatment using electron microscopy.
