Abstract
AbstractThe quaternary Mg–9Li–2Al–0.5Sc alloy (in wt%) was prepared from pure components. After homogenization, the alloy was subjected to severe plastic deformation by KoBo extrusion and cyclic forging leading to grain refinement in the range of 0.5–2 µm of hexagonal close-packed (HCP) α phase. Deformed alloys showed high ultimate tensile strength near 200 MPa and good elongation in the range 30–40% at room temperature (RT). Large elongations close to 200% were obtained during the tensile test at a temperature of 200 °C. Deformed samples showed the presence of multiple voids confirming grain boundary sliding mechanism of deformation. Twins on {10$$\overline{1}$$

Intermetallic phases such as cubic MgSc were identified in deformed alloys mostly within HCP α phase, whereas HCP MgSc2 particles were observed within body-centered cubic (BCC) β phase. Intermetallic phases were responsible for RT strengthening of alloys and slightly lower tensile elongation during superplastic deformation. Formation of the HCP α phase was observed within the BCC β phase in tensile deformed alloys. Atomic-level nucleation of HCP phase within the β phase was identified by the use of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy technique.
