Zn-Mg alloys are considered to have potential application in bone implants, since both metals are biocompatible and have biodegradable characteristics. Adding Mg to Zn can boost mechanical and corrosion resistances. However, ...

In the last decade, several studies have been developed on lead-free alloys as potential candidates to replace Sn-Pb alloys in soldering processes. Sn-Mg alloys arise as promising alternatives due to characteristics such ...

This manuscript summarizes recent investigation of the authors into the solidification and shrinkage defect formation of ductile and compacted graphite cast irons. The study makes use of the DAAS (direct austempering after ...
