Magnesium Metal
Magnesium is the fourth most common element in the Earth behind iron, oxygen, and silicon, making up 13% of the planet’s mass and a large fraction of the planet’s mantle.
Magnesium Metal
Magnesium is the fourth most common element in the Earth behind iron, oxygen, and silicon, making up 13% of the planet’s mass and a large fraction of the planet’s mantle. Magnesium ion’s high solubility in water makes it the third-most-abundant element dissolved in seawater.
Magnesium is generally obtained mainly by electrolysis of magnesium salts obtained from brine. In commerce, this metal is primarily used as an alloying agent to make aluminium-magnesium alloys, generally known as magnesium. Since this element is less dense than aluminum, these alloys are prized for their relative lightness and durability.
Application
Magnesium, in its purest form, can serve as a substitute for aluminum due to its strong and lightweight properties. It is used in manufacturing several high-volume parts, including automotive and truck components such as “mag wheels”. Being a component of aluminum alloys, in die-casting (alloyed with zinc), it is used to remove sulfur during the production of iron, steel, and titanium.
Products
Firestarters, shavings, sharpeners, and magnesium ribbons are common products made using magnesium. This metal also plays a major role in electronic device manufacturing, due to its low weight, and good mechanical and electrical properties. Magnesium is widely used for manufacturing mobile phones, laptops, cameras, and other electronic components.
