Abstract Magnesium alloy has extremely excellent properties and is known as “21st Century Green Engineering Material”. This article mainly introduces the influence of the heat resistance and comprehensive performance of the three series of Mg-Al, Mg-Zn and Mg-RE heat-resistant magnesium alloys after adding rare earth elements, alkali metal elements and other elements. Three development directions of improving the heat resistance of magnesium alloys are prospected. These are: 1. Using cheap alloy elements (such as Ca, Si, etc.) to replace rare earth elements of the heat-resistant magnesium alloy, 2. Titanium element is added to improve heat-resistant magnesium alloy’s mechanical properties and its strength, 3. The new casting process and processing technology are used to improve the heat-resistant magnesium alloy’s properties. This article aims to provide technical reference for the development of my country’s magnesium alloy industry.

Magnesium alloys as the emerging commercial metal structure material have excellent specific properties, low density, and stability, which are more and more vital for researchers. This paper reviews the behavior of rare earth in magnesium alloy and the way to enhance the elevated temperature properties of Mg-RE alloys. The current Mg-RE alloys are summarized. The future development direction is pointed.

Abstract Experimental Mg-Al-RE type magnesium alloys for high-pressure die-casting are presented. Alloys based on the commercial AM50 magnesium alloy with 1, 3 and 5 mass % of rare earth elements were fabricated in a foundry and cast in cold chamber die-casting machines. The obtained experimental casts have good quality surfaces and microstructure consisting of an α(Mg)-phase, Al11RE3, Al10RE2Mn7 intermetallic compound and small amount of α+γ eutectic and Al2RE phases.

Rare earth magnesium alloys and Mg-Zn-Cu alloys were prepared by gravity casting and direct squeezing casting respectively, and the corrosion performances of three kinds of Mg-Zn-Cu alloys were compared in this paper. The results indicate that adding rare earth elements and direct squeezing casting process can significantly increase the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys, and aluminum can improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloys.

It is obvious that automotive industry worldwide is predicting significant growth in the use of magnesium alloys for weight reduction to decrease fuel consumption and emission. About a half decade ago, the price of magnesium alloys was more than twice that of aluminum alloys on a weight basis. Currently, magnesium alloys cost about one and a half times that of aluminum alloys on a weight basis, and thus the price of magnesium alloys is the same as or lower than that of aluminum alloys on a per volume basis. However, in considering the performance of magnesium components (not their specific mechanical properties) and recycling aspect of magnesium alloys, it is required to realize niche applications of magnesium alloys, which meet the cost requirement on performance basis and/or offer more than weight reduction. There are many other factors that make magnesium a good choice: component consolidation, improved safety for driver and passengers, and improved noise vibration and harshness (NVH), to name a few. As one of these efforts to adopt magnesium alloys in automotive component, this paper describes the research strategy of cold chamber type 2-cavity die casting of AM50 magnesium alloy for developing the steering column lock housing module with emphasis on cost driving factors and necessities for cost reduction, explaining why AM50 magnesium alloy is chosen with design and die casting process optimization.

We compared the newly developed heat resistant magnesium alloy with conventional ones by Thixomolding® and aluminum alloy by die casting. Tensile properties at elevated temperatures of AXEJ6310 were equal to those of ADC12. In particular, elongation tendency of AXEJ6310 at higher temperature was better than those of the other alloys. Creep resistance of AXEJ6310 was larger than that of AE42 by almost 3 orders and smaller than that of ADC12 by almost 2 orders of magnitude. Fatigue limits at room temperature and 423K of AXEJ6310 was superior among conventional magnesium alloys.
