Abstract:The relative effect of Zn addition to Mg-2%Ca based alloy on the creep and corrosion characteristics was compared with Al addition. The creep resistance of Mg-2%Ca based alloy at 175 °C was improved by Zn addition more significantly than by Al addition. However, the Al addition showed more effective in enhancing corrosion resistance. Since the solidification range for Zn-added alloy was considerably wide, the cautious casting design may be necessary to produce high-quality castings.
Key words: magnesium; calcium; cast alloy; creep; corrosion
