Curves of the viscosity of Mg-Ca alloy melts with different Ca contents at 1000 K.

Caption

Graph showing how the viscosity of molten Mg-Ca alloy changes with calcium content. The overall rising trend and distinct inflection points (e.g., at 1, 6, 8 wt.% Ca) are directly linked to rearrangements of atomic clusters within the melt, as revealed by molecular dynamics simulations.
