Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

Results of a study proving formation of long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) phases in the structure of magnesium alloy VMD16 of the Mg – Zn – Zr-system are presented. It is shown that the LPSO-phases have the form of plates from 1.5 to 25 nm thick. After a homogenizing annealing, the content of Zn and Y in the LPSO-phases changes. Special features of the morphology of these phases are considered.
