Abstract

The invention discloses a magnesium alloy and a method for preparing the same. The weight percentage compositions of the magnesium alloy as follows: 7 to11 percent by weight of Gd, 2 to 5 percent by weight of Y, 0.3 to 0.6 percent by weight of Zr, 0 to 1.0 percent by weight of Zn, the balance Mg and incidental impurity elements. The method for preparing the alloy comprises alloy melting, refining, casting, solid solution, extrusion deformation and two artificial aging methods, to produce heat resistant magnesium alloy extruded bar with high strength and high toughness. The tensile properties of the magnesium alloy at room temperature manufactured by adopting direct artificial aging is: tensile strength sigma b is between 450 and 480 MPa, sigma 0.2 is between 390 and 425 MPa, delta 5 is between 3 and 5 percent; when test specimen is heated to 250 DEG C for 10 min, the tensile strength sigma b is more than or equal to 300 MPa. The tensile properties of the magnesium alloy at room temperature manufactured by adopting dual artificial aging is: tensile strength sigma b is between 380 and 395 MPa, sigma 0.2 is between 280 and 290 MPa, delta 5 is between 15 and 21 percent; when test specimen is heated to 250 DEG C for 10 min, the tensile strength sigma b is more than or equal to 260 MPa.
