Introduction

Magnesium Ingot is a metal block made by melting and casting high-purity magnesium (usually ≥ 99.8%), which is silver white in color and has light weight, high strength, good thermal conductivity, and excellent damping and shock absorption properties. Magnesium is the eighth most abundant element in the Earth's crust and the lightest structural metal in industrial applications (with a density of 1.74 g/cm ³, approximately 2/3 of aluminum and 1/4 of steel).

Core advantages of magnesium ingots
Lightweight

It is 33% lighter than aluminum and 75% lighter than steel, making it an ideal material for weight reduction in fields such as automotive and aerospace.

high specific strength

The strength per unit weight is superior to steel and aluminum, making it suitable for load-bearing structural components.

Excellent damping performance

Can absorb vibration and noise, used for shock absorption in precision instruments and electronic devices.

Good processability

Easy to die cast, extrude, and cut, suitable for the production of complex shaped components.

Electromagnetic shielding

It has a shielding effect on electromagnetic waves and is suitable for electronic device casings.

Environmentally friendly and recyclable

100% recyclable, in line with the trend of green manufacturing.

The alloy has great potential for strengthening

Form high-performance alloys with aluminum, zinc, manganese, etc. (such as AZ91, AM60).

Main application areas
Transportation

Automobile: engine bracket, wheel hub, gearbox housing (weight reduction and consumption reduction).

Aerospace: aircraft seats, cabin doors, drone components.

3C Electronics

Laptop shell, phone frame, camera body (lightweight+heat dissipation).

Military Industry and National Defense

Missile shells, armored vehicle components, radar equipment (lightweight+electromagnetic shielding).

Industrial manufacturing

Die castings, tools and equipment, metallurgical reducing agents (such as titanium smelting).

Medical and Sports

Orthopedic implants, sports equipment (such as bicycle racks, golf clubs).

New energy

Hydrogen storage materials (magnesium based hydrogen storage), battery negative electrode materials (research stage).

Supplementary explanation
Challenge: Magnesium ingots are prone to oxidation and require surface treatment (such as anodizing, micro arc oxidation) to enhance corrosion resistance.

Trend: With the increasing demand for new energy vehicles and green manufacturing, the magnesium alloy application market continues to expand.
