In-situ thermal analysis and macroscopical characterization of mg-xca and mg-0.5Ca-xzn alloy systems

This research described the identification phases by thermal analysis and microscopy inspection of Mg–xCa and Mg–0.5%Ca–xZn alloys that were solidified at slow cooling rate. Analysis of cooling curve after Ca addition shows the evolution of the Mg2Ca intermetallic phase at around 520 °C in addition...
