Abstract

Background: Magnesium (Mg) is regarded as the most accessible element in the Earth crust and possess low structural density with increased specific strength. Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is considered as a more dependable method of creating Mg-based products. In SLM, build orientation affects mechanical properties, causing ductility to increase and tensile strength to decrease. Objectives: To improve the mechanical properties and increase the tensile strength and yield strength China low activation martensitic (CLAM) steels different yttrium (Y) contents are utilized. Methods: A fabrication of reinforced composites namely Al-Zn or Fly Ash or SiC is carried out by Stir Casting Route using Vortex Method. Powder metallurgy route is employed for preparing Al-Zr relied metal matrix composites. Findings: CLAM has good tensile strength and yield strength, when compared to the other alloys in mechanical properties. A comprehensive analysis is carried out about the impacts of different Y additions over the Mg based alloys and the resulting texture, microstructure and tensile properties beneath different processes are analysed in this paper. Novelty: CLAM is utilized to enhance the tensile strength and the analogization amid the alloy proportions which shows that the Y-CLAM possesses better tensile and yield strength of 550 Mpa compared to the existing methods.

Keywords: Magnesium (Mg); Yttrium (Y); Tensile Strength and Yield Strength (YS); CLAM; Mechanical properties
