Start the atmospheric exposure test on AZ61 Magnesium alloy sheet


For a new proof as one of merits in the AZ61 sheet mechanical property, we have started the atmospheric exposure test. This test on magnesium sheet and others at the MIYAKOJIMA EXPOSURE LABORATORY of Japan Weathering Test Center is continuously being performed by the Surface Treatment subcommittee of Japan Magnesium Association. Our AZ61 Magnesium alloy sheet also made the test add at the October investigation this time.
The test has been performed under the conditions of open air and under eaves.
The condition under eaves means to hang specimens at the wall under the roof or to hang from the roof. This makes the environment of specimens severer than that of open air because corrosion is accelerated due to the location of specimens where raindrops on specimens are not dry.

We expect this test will bring the good result that AZ61 is also superior in the corrosion resistance to AZ31.
