heat-resistant alloys for automobile engine applications. In this study‚ the creep behavior of Mg-5Sn alloy was investigated using impression creep technique. The impression creep tests were carried out under constant punching stress in the range of 80-320 MPa at temperatures between 373-573 K for dwell times up to 5 hours. The results highlight that creep of Mg-5Sn alloy was load and temperature dependent‚ i.e. increasing the load and temperature resulted in larger creep deformation and hence to higher
