Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0548875A1] A high-strength magnesium-based alloy possessing a microcrystalline composition represented by the general formula: MgaAlbZnc (wherein a, b, and c stand for atomic percents respectively in the ranges of 80 </= a </= 92, 4 </= b </= 12, and 4 < c </= 12). This alloy can be advantageously produced by rapidly solidifying the melt of an alloy of the composition shown above by the liquid quenching method. It is useful as high-strength materials and highly refractory materials owing to its high hardness, strength, and heat-resistance. It is also useful as materials with high specific strength because of light weight and high strength. <IMAGE>
