  2. Magnesium alloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_alloy

    Magnesium alloys are mixtures of magnesium (the lightest structural metal) with other metals (called an alloy), often aluminium, zinc, manganese, silicon, copper, rare earths and zirconium. Magnesium alloys have a hexagonal lattice structure, which affects the fundamental properties of these alloys.

  3. Centrifugal casting (industrial) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_casting...

    Typical materials that can be centrifugal cast are metals, cements, concretes, glass, and pottery materials. Typical metals cast are iron, steel, stainless steels, and alloys of nickel, aluminum, and copper, magnesium. Two materials can be combined by introducing a second material during the process.

  4. AJ alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJ_alloys

    They contain magnesium, aluminium, and strontium. [1] In the names the 'J' refers to Strontium. Alloy Mg Al% Sr% Mn% AJ62 Balance 6 2 0.34 [2] AJ52 Balance 5 2 0.4 [3] AJ52 has higher creep resistance, and AJ62 has better castability. Both are used in the BMW magnesium–aluminium composite engine block. [4]

  5. Aluminium–magnesium alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium–magnesium_alloys

    Aluminium–magnesium alloys (AlMg) – standardised in the 5000 series – are aluminium alloys that are mainly made of aluminium and contain magnesium as the main alloy element. Most standardised alloys also contain small additives of manganese (AlMg(Mn)). Pure AlMg alloys and the AlMg(Mn) alloys belong to the medium-strength, natural (not ...

  6. Aluminium–magnesium–silicon alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium–magnesium...

    The AlMgSi alloys are therefore understood in the standards as a separate group (6000 series) and not as a subgroup of aluminum-magnesium alloys that cannot be hardenable. AlMgSi is one of the aluminum alloys with medium to high strength, high fracture resistance, good welding suitability, corrosion resistance and formability. They can be ...

  7. Metal casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_casting

    Because of the resin and finer sand, it gives a much finer surface finish. The process is easily automated and more precise than sand casting. Common metals that are cast include cast iron, aluminium, magnesium, and copper alloys. This process is ideal for complex items that are small to medium-sized.

  8. Superhard material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superhard_material

    Aluminium magnesium boride or BAM is a chemical compound of aluminium, magnesium and boron. Whereas its nominal formula is AlMgB 14 , the chemical composition is closer to Al 0.75 Mg 0.75 B 14 . It is a ceramic alloy that is highly resistive to wear and has a low coefficient of sliding friction.

  9. Magnalium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnalium

    Alloys with small amounts of magnesium (about 5%) exhibit greater strength, greater corrosion resistance, and lower density than pure aluminium. Such alloys are also more workable and easier to weld than pure aluminum. [1] Alloys with high amounts of magnesium (around 50%) are brittle and more susceptible to corrosion than aluminum.
