Properties of sand-cast magnesium alloys : part 1: binary magnesium-zinc alloys / by B. Lagowski & J. W. Meier.: M38-1/9-1958E-PDF
"The magnesium-zinc alloy system is today the most important base for high-strength magnesium alloys. Unfortunately, published data on properties of binary Mg-Zn casting alloys are both limited and controversial. It was, therefore, necessary to undertake a systematic study of the effect of composition and various melt treatments on the foundry characteristics, amenability to heat treatment, mechanical properties, and metallographic structure of this alloy series. Work on grain refinement of magnesium-zinc alloys included superheating, carbon inoculation, and additions of small amounts of aluminum, iron, manganese, titanium and zirconium. Results of the investigation show the necessity for considerable revision of long accepted data"--Abstract, p. ii.
