Magnesium alloys are promising structural materials with high specific strength. However, their broader use is limited by their low formability at ambient temperatures. It is known that Mg alloys containing small amounts of yttrium or rare-earth (RE) elements exhibit up to 5 times higher room temperature ductility but finding other solutes with the same effect is highly desirable. In order to identify a method allowing for a corresponding rapid alloy and solute assessment, we analyze relations between the I1 stacking fault energies, which were shown to be related to the macroscopic ductility in Mg alloys (Acta Mater. 60 (2012) 3011), and the atomic volume V of pure solutes, their electronegativity ν and bulk modulus B. Comparing the impact of solutes with that of yttrium we propose a single numerical quantity (called yttrium similarity index, YSI) that is based on these interrelations. We evaluate YSI for 2850 Mg-ternaries and identify 133 promising solute pairs not including any RE elements (New J. Phys. 17 (2015) 093009).
