A new TEXAS alloy system (Mg-Sn-Nd-Ca-Al-Si) is presented in order to extend the range of applications for magnesium alloys. The alloy has been produced by permanent mould direct chill casting, a process that provides a homogenous distribution of alloying elements throughout the entire casting. This work presents microstructural features and a new Mg-Sn-Ca phase with the morphology of hexagonal platelets. Additionally mechanical properties and the corrosion behaviour of TEXAS alloys are presented in as cast and heat treated conditions.
