re Magnesium.

As we have a set of magnesium castings going through experimentally we are interested in the corrosion problem.

Two recent papers which give some light on the subject are:

Light Alloys for Aeronautical purposes, with special reference to magnesium. - by Dr.L.Aitchison, December 14th.

The Corrosion and protection of magnesium and its/alloys - by Dr.G.D.Bengough December 8th
The Institution of Chemical Engineers.
