Primary Applications
Aluminum Alloy Production
Magnesium is a crucial alloying element in aluminum-magnesium alloys (5xxx series), enhancing strength, corrosion resistance, and weldability without adding significant weight. The typical addition rate ranges from 0.5% to 5% depending on the alloy specification.
Die Casting Industry
Magnesium alloys are increasingly specified for thin-wall die cast components in automotive and electronics applications. Products manufactured from our ingots include:
Automotive steering wheels, instrument panels, and seat frames
Laptop and mobile phone housings
Power tool bodies
Camera and optical equipment frames
Steel Desulfurization
In steelmaking, magnesium granules or powders derived from ingots serve as powerful desulfurizing agents, removing sulfur impurities to produce cleaner, higher-quality steel with improved mechanical properties.
Titanium Production (Kroll Process)
High-purity magnesium metal is essential for the Kroll process, where it reduces titanium tetrachloride to produce titanium sponge-the raw material for all titanium metal products.
Sacrificial Anodes
Magnesium's high electrochemical activity makes it ideal for cathodic protection systems. Magnesium anodes protect pipelines, storage tanks, and marine structures from corrosion.
Nodular Cast Iron Production
When added to molten iron, magnesium promotes the formation of nodular graphite, producing ductile iron with superior strength and ductility compared to gray iron.
