Abstract
The effects of zirconium on the properties of sand cast Mg-rare earth metal alloys were discussed in detail in an earlier publication.' It was shown that a significant improvement in strength properties at temperatures up to 400°F resulted from the zirconium addition. In general, the properties of cast Mg-Didymium-Zr alloys were superior to the corresponding alloys containing Mischmetal and the optimum rare-earth level was approAmately 3 pet. Jessup, Emley, and Fisher have also shown the advantages of didymium in Mg-rare earth-Zr alloys, 2
