In present study, the influence of calcium content on the microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of quaternary Mg-6Zn-0.8Mn-xCa alloys, where x = 1, 1.5, 3 or 4.5 wt.% Ca, was examined. The grain structure of this quaternary alloy system became more refined with increasing addi...
