Abstract
Phase equilibria in the Mg-rich corner of Mg–Nd–Sc ternary system was studied by using the equilibrated alloys method. The partial isothermal sections at 500 °C, 530 °C, and 550 °C were constructed by analyzing the phase constitution and the chemical compositions of the present phases in 19 alloy samples. The Mg3(Mg, Nd, Sc) phase exhibited noticeable ternary solubility introduced by the solid solution of Mg and Sc in the Mg3Nd lattice. (Mg_hcp) showed a narrow homogeneity range paralleling to Mg–Sc binary boundary, whereas Mg41Nd5 showed negligible ternary solubility at all three temperatures. The three-phase equilibrium region of (Mg_hcp) + Mg41Nd5 + Mg3(Mg, Nd, Sc) dominated the Mg-rich corner and was surrounded by three two-phase equilibrium regions constituted by any two of above three phases. The primary crystals and the solidification pathways of alloys in the Mg-rich corner were analyzed via the as-cast microstructure. The matrix phases of (MgSc_bcc) and/or (Mg_hcp) together with the precipitations of Mg3(Mg, Nd, Sc) and other ordering structures could provide additional space to optimize microstructure and properties of Sc-alloyed Mg–Nd alloys.
