Features: This book is divided into two parts. The first part systematically introduces the applications of magnesium and magnesium alloys in fields such as automobiles, aerospace, electronic appliances, military, and chemical industries. It covers the production processes, basic principles, equipment, and practical operations of silicothermic and electrolytic methods for refining magnesium, as well as the refining of crude magnesium. The second part provides a detailed introduction to the basic principles of magnesium alloy melting, the equipment and safety technologies and operations used in magnesium alloy production, the production process flow of magnesium alloys, methods for preventing oxidation and combustion during the magnesium alloy production process, the purification and modification treatment of magnesium alloy melts, the casting methods and processes of magnesium alloys, quality control of magnesium alloys, common defects and prevention methods, and the recycling and reuse of magnesium alloy waste. This book is closely linked to the actual production of magnesium and magnesium alloys, very specifically summarizing the technical content of each stage from primary magnesium to commercial magnesium alloy production. It can serve as a guidebook for researchers and producers of magnesium and magnesium alloys, and is particularly suitable as a training manual for technical personnel in factories. The book systematically introduces the applications of magnesium and magnesium alloys in fields such as automobiles, aerospace, electronic appliances, military, and chemical industries, as well as the production processes, basic principles, equipment, and practical operations of silicothermic and electrolytic methods for refining magnesium, and the refining of crude magnesium.
