Herein, graphene oxide(GO) decorated with SnO_(2) coating is introduced as reinforcement into AZ31 Mg alloy. During the smelting process, the MgO layer is in situ gernerated at interface between GO and the molten Mg alloy matrix by consuming SnO_(2). In the solid state, such kind of interface structure can improve the GO-Mg interface bonding intensity,also significantly generate stacking faults. The AZ31 composite reinfoced by trace modified GO(0.1 wt%) exhibits high ultimate strength and almost the same elongation with AZ31 alloy. Compared with AZ31 alloy, the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of composite are increased by 33.5% and 23.7%, respectively. Meanwhile, the multi-level electromagnetic reflection from the multi-layer structure of GO and the interface polarization caused by the MgO mid-layer can significantly improve EMI shielding performance. The appropriate interface design strategy achieves the effect of “two birds with one stone”.展开更多
