1. Composition and characteristics of foundry alloys
The compositions and various characteristics of magnesium alloys used in foundries are described in the articles Properties of magnesium and its alloys and Numerical data on magnesium and its alloys in this treatise.
The user's choice should be guided not only by the cold mechanical properties of the alloys, but also by their hot mechanical properties, fatigue life, corrosion resistance and casting properties.
Table 1 gives the mechanical properties of the main alloys at room temperature.
