摘要

Rare earth microalloying effectively enhances magnesium alloy performance. This study designed Mg-2Y-1Al (WA21) and its Ca/Mn-modified variants (0.3Ca-0.7Mn, 0.5Ca-0.5Mn, 0.7Ca-0.3Mn) to investigate their 200 °C compressive behavior. Thermal compression tests (0.001 s−1, ε = 0.3) revealed that trace Ca/Mn additions significantly improved compressive yield strength (CYS) and ultimate compressive strength. EBSD analysis demonstrated remarkable grain refinement, with WAXM210505 achieving a 50% reduction in average grain size (20.32 μm) compared to WA21. In-grain misorientation axis (IGMA) and Schmidt factor analyses indicated that pyramidal <c  + a  > slip dominated deformation across all alloys, accompanied by limited prismatic <a  > slip. Discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) was identified as the primary DRX mechanism, with Ca/Mn additions promoting DRX development and texture weakening. The refined microstructure and optimized slip activity collectively contributed to enhanced high-temperature strength. These findings elucidate the role of Ca/Mn ratio in balancing slip system activation and DRX kinetics, providing critical insights for designing heat-resistant Mg-Y-Al alloys tailored for compressive load applications, providing new insights for the development of low-cost magnesium alloys with excellent service performance.
