What are the characteristics of magnesium alloy forging?

Light weight, good rigidity, certain corrosion resistance and dimensional stability, impact resistance, wear resistance, good attenuation performance and easy recycling; In addition, it also has the characteristics of high thermal conductivity, high electrical conductivity, non-magnetism, good shielding and non-toxicity.

Uses: Magnesium alloys are widely used in portable equipment and automobile industry to achieve the purpose of lightweight.

Although the specific gravity of magnesium alloy is heavier than that of plastic, the strength and elasticity per unit weight are higher than that of plastic, so the parts of magnesium alloy can be made thinner and lighter than those of plastic under the same strength. In addition, because the specific strength of magnesium alloy is higher than that of aluminum alloy and iron, the weight of aluminum or iron parts can be reduced without reducing the strength of parts.

Magnesium alloy has a high relative specific strength (the ratio of strength to mass). The specific stiffness (the ratio of stiffness to mass) is close to that of aluminum alloy and steel, and much higher than that of engineering plastics.
