Abstract
The effects of Ag (0, 0.5, 1, and 2 wt%) content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of SLMed AZ61 Mg–Al–Zn
alloy in the as-deposited and heat-treated conditions were investigated. The microstructure of SLMed AZ61 Mg–Al–Zn alloy
is composed of α-Mg matrix and eutectic of α-Mg and M g17Al12 phase at grain boundaries. The addition of Ag inhibited the
growth of β-Mg17Al12 phase and further refined the grain size. After adding 2 wt% Ag, the volume fraction of β-Mg17Al12
phase is decreased from 40.53 to 30.27%, and the average grain diameter is decreased from 2.35 to 1.82 μm. Mg54Ag17 phase
particles were formed after Ag was added and distributed in the grain boundary, which was beneficial to enhance the mechani-
cal properties of Mg–Al alloy. After 8-h solution treatment at 420 °C β-Mg17Al12 phase was basically dissolved in α-Mg
matrix, which was beneficial to the precipitation of discontinuous β phase during aging treatment, and this discontinuous β
phase could effectively enhance the strength of Mg–Al alloy. When the content of Ag is 2 wt%, the mechanical properties and
corrosion resistance of Mg–Al alloy are enhanced. After solution treatment, the mechanical properties of Mg–Al alloy are
decreased, but the corrosion resistance is greatly enhanced. After aging treatment, the mechanical properties are increased,
but the corrosion resistance is decreased.

It can be seen that the discontinuous β phase is formed
by the interweaving and aggregation of the precipitated

3.2.2 3.2.2 Mechanical properties of heat‑treated AZ61 Mg increases. When the content of Ag is 2%, the hardness of
alloys the sample without Ag is increased by 24.7%. This is due
to the aging hardening effect of Ag on Mg–Al alloy [23].
As shown in Fig. 18, the micro-hardness value of SLMed When the solution time is extended to 8 h, as the crystal

range is between 87.4 and 109.0 HV. And with the increase ununiformly distributed block β phase leads to slightly larger
in Ag content, the hardness of the sample after aging fluctuations of micro-hardness. After T6 treatment, age hard-
ening occurs, and the hardness of the two groups of aging is
similar. Although a longer time of solid solution leads to a
decrease in hardness, after 8 h of solid solution + aging treat-
ment, the Al element is basically solid-soluble in the α-Mg
matrix, which is conducive to the precipitation of Mg17Al12
phase during aging, and more formation of discontinuous
β-Mg17Al12 phase within grains improves the hardness of
Mg–Al alloy.
Nano-indentation experiments results are shown in
Fig. 19 and Table 6. The nano-hardness value decreases after
the solid solution experiment and increases after the aging
treatment, which is consistent with the micro-hardness value;
longer solution time leads to more β-Mg17Al12 phase dissolu-
tion, lower hardness, and more sufficient solid solution. It is
beneficial to the growth of discontinuous β-Mg17Al12 phase,
which increases the hardness after aging. After the solu-
tion test, the elastic modulus of the sample is reduced, and
