Suggested Research Topics on Magnesium and Magnesium Alloys

Abstract

Future magnesium alloy development is outlined. Emphasis is placed on improving strength, heat resistance, elimination of impurities, forging, cold and hot forming characteristics. Study is made of possible improvement of casting methods. Technological applications are given, e.g., in sandwich construction. Research program is to be divided among academic, industrial, and governmental agencies according to individual scope.
