Problems solved by technology

Among them, multi-element alloying is the most commonly used method to improve the mechanical properties of cast magnesium-lithium alloys. There are three main types of elements usually added to Mg-Li alloys: one is elements with large solid solubility, such as Ag, Cd, Hg, Zn, Al elements, etc., have a better strengthening effect, but the structure and performance stability of the alloy is poor; the second is elements with low solid solubility, such as Ni, Co, Cu, Ca, Sr elements, etc., the strengthening effect is small, but the structure and Good performance stability; third, elements with very small solid solubility, such as K, Be, B, Cr, Mo elements, etc.
