magnesium

The proportion of lightweight magnesium (1.74), about one fifth of the iron, aluminum, 2/5 2/3. It is not easy to the active metal corrosion. It is widely used in various fields, such as photography and computer outside box, vehicle wheel rims accessories. Through alloying corrosion resistance and further improve.
Adopts the advantages of magnesium chassis
(1) can make light of the frame
It is the low density, can manufacture aluminum frame of light. Young modulus slightly lower, but can be bold pipe diameter and directed the methods to solve, etc. Use aluminum alloy are designed to reduce weight, the future may be replaced? Magnesium Titanium and magnesium slightly different research topic, these two kinds of metal still active.
(2) good workability
Magnesium system frame processing not poor. Cut the powder through the burning, alloy elements to evade, cut, the poor may not. Compared with titanium incising.
Magnesium alloy frame shortcomings. Second-ranking
(1) corrosion resistance?
The production of magnesium chassis manufacturers said corrosion resistance. But this information is currently rarely, corrosion resistance, to what extent to judgment. Magnesium is acuteness oxidation of metal, careless mistake easily explosion operations, pure magnesium can use, add other metals (aluminum, zinc, manganese, etc) to use made of alloy, magnesium alloy strength and mechanical properties are improved. Some people used alloys, such as motorcycles made tools of crank, they say: "although use for a long time, but not as well as aluminium, white.
(2) of the elastic modulus of magnesium (decided rigid factors) than aluminum, increase its low many rigid pipe diameter, which may affect the impedance of the air?
