| Investigation of precipitation effects in solution treated Mg-Tb and Mg-Tb-Nd alloy was performed. Solution treated alloys were compared with samples deformed by high pressure torsion to examine influence of deformation on precipitation effects. Dislocations present in samples processed by high pressure torsion can serve as diffusion channels for atoms and also as nucleation sites for precipitates. Therefore precipitation of some phases in high pressure torsion deformed samples was observed at lower temperatures than in solution treated ones. |
