ZE41A
UNS M16410
Description
Magnesium alloy ZE41A is a magnesium-base casting alloy containing zinc, zirconium and rare earths. The composition of this alloy differs from the others as the amount of zinc present is quite significant. It stands out among other alloys on the criteria of electric conductivity with 39% IACS (International Annealed Copper Standard). The alloy proves useful in high integrity casting operations that function at an ambient temperature with an upper limit of almost 150 ℃. It's coefficient of thermal expansion is the most among all the other alloys, indicating that it would expand linearly the most in comparison.
