hi,
I found many interesting things about magnesium at www.magnesium.com
7th International Conference on Magnesium Alloys and their Applications November 6-9, 2006 Dresden, Germany
Since the beginning of the 21st century, Magnesium and its alloys are expected to become the most promising metallic light weight materials for a universal use in transportation industry to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. Owing to their intrinsic characteristics of light weight, promising mechanical properties, their high recyclability and the reduced prizes for primary magnesium and alloys, the interest for implementation of magnesium base materials as a substitution for other materials or as a competitive material for new designs has increased. But there will always be competition between the various materials groups such as light metals, steels and polymers for a use in relevant structures depending on economical aspects, materials and component requirements.
