The creep resistance of Elektron 21 magnesium alloy containing Zn, Nd, Gd and Zr has been investigated. Test has been conducted at 200°C, 225°C and 250°C with constant load amounts to 90, 120 and 150 MPa up to 100 hours. Some specimens cracked during the test. Metallographic and fractographic research has been performed in order to identify the microstructural changes occurring during the creep resistance test. Microstructure has been observed with light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Chemical composition of microstructural components has been investigated with energy dispersion spectroscopy. Research revealed presence of voids, microcracks and inclusions which can significantly influence creep resistance of material.
