Thermophysical and thermomechanical properties of selected alloys based on magnesium

Abstract

The paper is focused on very perspective magnesium alloys. It deals with observation of thermophysical and thermomechanical properties of two magnesium alloys (AMZ40 and AJ62). This article describes preparation of cast specimens and methods of assessment of their thermophysical properties. Infl uence of metallurgical processing (inoculant) upon the parameters observed was studied as well. Microstructures of the obtained materials are documented.
