Martin, in Materials for Engineering (Third Edition), 2006. Cast magnesium alloys. Up to 90% of magnesium alloys are produced as castings, widely used in the aerospace industries. Magnesium–aluminium alloys contain 8–9% Al with up to 2% of zinc to increase the strength and % Mn, which improves the corrosion resistance. From the Mg–Al phase diagram, Fig., it will be .
