Elektron 21 circle, bar, sleeve, casting

Relevance

Magnesium is a very light (specific weight 1.7 g/cm3), but fragile metal. Therefore, its alloys with manganese, as well as its alloys with aluminum and zinc have practical applications. Due to the minimum density (1.8-1.83 g/cm3) they show high specific strength per weight unit.

Technical characteristics

Electron series alloys were developed by British engineers in the 1920s. This is one of the first industrial magnesium alloys. They have high strength and low density (1.8-1.83 g/cm3). The composition is up to 10% aluminum, 2.5-3.5% zinc and 2-3% manganese.

Mg Al Zn+Mn Si Fe Cu Ni Impurities
base 5-8 1,5-5 ≤0.05 ≤0.004 ≤0.015 ≤0.001 ≤0.02

This composition is resistant to alkaline solutions but easily corrodes under the influence of even weak acid solutions, sea water and ammonium salts. Combustible at 600 °C, it burns with oxygen in the air in a bright white flame and gives off white smoke of magnesium oxide.

Cold work.

The alloy is very workable. It can be easily plastically deformed, turned, milled, ground and drilled.

Storage

The alloy is stored in covered storages or under a roof where it is adequately protected from mechanical and other types of damages.

Application

Transport engineering, aviation, instrument engineering, power engineering. Manufacturing of incendiary air-bombs.
