Investigation on the microstructure evolution and deformation behavior of Mg–2Zn-0.5Mn-0.2Ca-xNd/yLa alloy by in-situ tensile by Jie Mi, Shengquan Liang, Shiyu Luan, Qianlong Ren, Xin Che, Peipeng Jin

“…Compared with alloy B, the tensile load of alloy A is higher and the plasticity is lower. The microstructure evolution and deformation behavior analyzed by in-situ SEM and EBSD show that the basal texture intensity of alloy A is larger, which promotes more prismatic slip during the tensile process, resulting in higher tensile load, while alloy B with higher Nd content produces more pyramidal slip in the later stage of deformation, which contributes to higher plasticity. …”
