Properties of sand-cast magnesium alloys. Part IV, Mg-Ag, Mg-Ag-Zr and Mg-Ag-Zn-Zr alloys / B. Lagowski & J.W. Meier, Physical Metallurgy Division.: M38-1/63-1964E-PDF

"The long-term research program on high-strength magnesium alloys, being conducted since 1945 at the laboratories of the Physical Metallurgy Division, Mines Branch, Department of Mines and Technical Surveys, Ottawa, has included a study of binary and more complex alloys based on the magnesium-silver system. The results of the investigation related to sandcast Mg-Ag, Mg-Ag-Zr and Mg-Ag-Zn-Zr alloys are presented and show that all three of these alloy groups have good ductility and are amenable to solution strengthening. Precipitation-hardening, to any appreciable extent, was found only in certain alloys of the Mg-Ag-Zn-Zr system. Some of these alloys show exceptionally high yield strength"--Abstract, page i.
