About this document

Mg Alloys Casting Techniques and Challenges by Rahul Srivastava is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Mg alloys have a high oxidation potential when molten and require a protective environment during melting and casting. They freeze faster than aluminum alloys due to lower specific heat and have a freezing range exceeding 50K. Horizontal twin roll casting is more suitable for producing wide sheets or commercialization due to allowing for uniform melt distribution, though casting speed is low around 2-2.8 m/min. Vertical twin roll casting is suitable for ferrous alloys and has a higher casting speed. Melt co
