From All Metals & Forge
 

 
Magnesium is the lightest of the commonly used metals. Its versatility and abundance make it one of the most popular metals, and variations of magnesium alloys are used in almost every major industry because it is strong, easily machined, and stable. Magnesium alloys are also impact and dent resistant, and they have the capacity for damping and low inertia, which makes them effective in high-speed applications.
Products & Services
Magnesium and magnesium alloys are nonferrous metals with low density, good ductility, moderate strength and good corrosion resistance.
Welding alloys are used to melt and fuse pieces of metal together.
Master alloys and alloying additives are alloy element concentrates, grain refiners, hardeners, deoxidants and other agents added into a melt or metal powder blend to produce a particular alloy, modify a melt or alter processing characteristics.
Ceramic powders and precursors contain oxides, carbides, nitrides, carbon, and other non-metals. They are usually micron or mesh-size in distribution. Ceramic powders, sol-gel solutions and precursors are fabricated through atomization, crushing, milling, precipitation, and other chemical processes.
Metals anodes are consumables used in a variety of electrochemical processes such as corrosion protection (sacrificial anodes) and electroplating (plating anodes).
