Abstract (en)

A heat-resistant zinc alloy exhibiting good creep resistance even at a temperature of not less than 100 DEG C comprises at least one of nickel and manganese in a total amount of not more than 3.5% by weight based on the total weight of the alloy, titanium and/or zirconium by not more than 2%wt, optionally alluminium by not more than 0.5%wt, copper by not more than 2%wt as well as one or more of Cr, Sc, Be, Li, Y and lanthanoids by not more than 0.5%wt in total and the balance of zinc and inevitable impurities. A molded article comprises the heat-resistant zinc alloy defined above. The heat-resistant zinc alloy is excellent in the creep resistance even at a high temperature and thus the heat-resistant zinc alloy can considerably expand the fields of application of the molded articles produced from the alloy.
