The Mg-Al-Sn system alloy is selected as the object originating from the decreased impact of Al and Sn dopings on the stacking fault energy of Mg. Concerning multi-element alloying based on this system, the key theoretical issues are to be investigated, including changing rules of plasticity microparameters with alloying elements doped, and functioning mechanism of doping elments on plasticity from atomic scale and electronic structure, which are both conducted by first principle calculations; also to be explored are the functioning impact of major alloying elements (Al, Sn) and microelements (Mn, Zn, Sb, RE etc.) on evolution behaviors of casting microstructure and recrystallization microstructure, plastic deformation behavior (yielding, hardening and softening), mechanisms of plastic deformation (slipping and twinning), together with evolution of deformation-induced submicrostructure. The present research is aimed i) to display precipitation sites and evolution mechanisms for precipitation phases (Mg2Sn etc.), as well as the interfaces between precipitation phases and matrix; to elucidate the slipping manner, twinning pattern and interaction between slip and twinning, together with formation and evolution mechanisms of subgrain boundry induced by slipping and twinning in the course of plastic deformation under room temperature; to reveal the influence of alloying elements, grain sizes and texture orientations on plastic deformation and evolution of deformation-induced submicrostructure; to achieve the estimation for mechanical properties and analysis of work harndeing ability, and actualize an optimization in composition design and preparation paramters (heat treatment, rolling etc.) for casting and roll-casting (rolling) magnesium alloys, thereby developing new Mg-Al-Sn alloys with independent intellectual property rights.
