Notes:
Mg is one of the most promising structural materials for lightweight applications due to itslow density, good castability and damping capacity. In this study, we investigated the effect of silver(Ag) addition on alloy ageing behavior and mechanical properties of Mg-Al-Si-Sn-Sr-Ag alloys withvariation of Ag contents (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0wt%). The ageing kinetics of Ag added alloys wasdetermined and affected by Ag addition. Although the precipitation of platelets of Mg17Al12 withinα-Mg matrix was not significantly affected by the silver, mechanical properties such as hardness andtensile properties were improved with increasing Ag contents
