Description

This paper studied the effects of some elements on the igniting temperature of the magnesium alloys. The main proposals of the study is to increase the igniting temperature by adding some elements to the magnesium alloys and make the magnesium alloys process easily like cast iron and aluminium without flux and gas cover. The results show that oxide film of molten Mg alloys has turned into fine and close structure from porous structure to stop the Mg alloys from oxidating further and the kindling point of magnesium alloys can be increased by about 200 deg. C
