The thermal conductivities of quaternary Mg-Zn-Ca-MM alloys have been investigated by evaluating the effect of MM on Mg-4Zn-0.5Ca alloys, with an emphasis to develop a new Mg alloy without compromising thermal conductivity, process-ability and mechanical property. As a result, the thermal conductivity of 0.5 wt.% MM-added Mg-Zn-Ca alloy was almost same as that of MM-free Mg-Zn-Ca alloy. However, with further increasing MM contents, thermal conductivities of MM-added alloys decreased. The tensile yield strength was improved with increasing MM contents. In addition, the average spiral flow lengths of Mg-Zn-Ca-xMM alloys were almost same levels with Mg-Zn-Ca alloy.

Magnesium alloys are increasingly accepted in automobile industry owing to their greater strength-to-weight ratio. These qualities lead to less vehicle weight and better fuel economy. Therefore, in the present work an effort has been made to develop a new Mg alloy system that exhibits greater ductility together with greater mechanical strength. Misch metal is added in Mg-based alloys to investigate the changes in mechanical properties. The microstructure of alloys Mg–4Al–3Zn–3Sn–3Pb (H1) and Mg–4Al–3Zn–3Sn–3Pb–0.5MM (H2) are dendritic in nature while for Mg–3Zn–3Sn–3Pb–2Si (H3) the “Chinese script” Mg2Si intermetallic structure was obtained. The ultimate tensile strength and elongation of Mg–4Al–3Zn–3Sn–3Pb–0.5MM (H2) alloy are about 40% and 100 % higher than that of H3 alloy. The ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, and percentage elongation of H2 alloy are 170 MPa, 44 MPa, and 3.4%, respectively.
