Notes:
The characterizations on the microstructural and mechanical properties of the Mg-Al-Znmulti-element intermetallic alloys fabricated by friction stir processing (FSP) are presented. Thecomposites of the alloys vary within Mg35-70Al5-25Zn25-45. The maximum working temperature canreach 550oC. The current process applies the FSP on vertically stacked foils of various portions ofMg, Al and Zn, 99.9% in purity and 0.2 to 1 mm in thickness. In order to homogenize the alloycomposition, three or more FSP passes in opposite directions are applied. Depending on the relativecontents of Mg, Al and Zn, numerous intermetallic compound phases are induced. The resultingintermetallic alloys exhibit high hardness up to 350 Hv
