Magnesium Alloy

Magnesium Alloys are mixture of magnesium ( the lightest structural metal ) with other metals ( called an alloy ),often aluminium,zinc ,manganese,silicon,copper , rare earths & zirconium.Magnesium alloys have a hexagonal lattice structure which affects the fundamental properties of these alloys.Plastic deformation of the hexagonal lattice is more complicated than in cubic latticed metals like aluminium,copper & steel ,therefore magnesium alloys are typically used as cast alloys but research of wrought alloys has been more extensive since 2003.Cast magnesium alloys are used for many components of modern automobiles & have been used in high-performance vehicles,die-cast magnesium is also used for camera bodies & components in lenses.
