The lightest practical alloy! Why not try using flame-retardant magnesium alloy?
The specific gravity of magnesium is about one-fourth that of iron and about two-thirds that of aluminum, making it the lightest among practical alloys. Additionally, it has the highest specific strength (strength per unit weight), which makes it a key material for weight reduction and energy conservation. On the other hand, magnesium alloys have the drawback of being "flammable." Flame-retardant magnesium has been developed to address this "flammable" issue, which has been a barrier to practical use, resulting in "flame-resistant magnesium alloys." With the advent of flame-retardant magnesium alloys, it is expected that the applications of magnesium will significantly expand in the future. Sakaguchi Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is also trying out welding of flame-retardant magnesium and has confirmed that it can be welded without any issues. If you are considering the practical application or commercialization of flame-retardant magnesium, please feel free to contact us.
