"A bimetal magnesium/aluminum (Mg/Al) macrocomposite containing millimeter-scale Al core reinforcement was fabricated via casting and hot-extrusion. Characterization revealed that the Al volume fraction was not uniform along the extruded rod length," scientists in Singapore, Singapore report.
"Major defects were absent, minimal porosity was present and Mg-Al interfacial integrity was good. The thermal stability of macrocomposite sections was marginally improved when compared to pure Mg. Results revealed that the presence of Al core leads to an improvement in average hardness and stiffness of Mg, and an overall improvement in tensile behavior (beyond 7% Al) ...
