Abstract
The present invention relates to a magnesium-based alloy, and to a method for producing same. The method comprises the steps of: melting a magnesium alloy into a liquid state; adding a silicon compound to said molten magnesium alloy; exhausting the silicon compound through a full reaction between said molten magnesium alloy and said added silicon compound such that the silicon compound does not substantially remain in the magnesium alloy; and exhausting the silicon produced as a result of said exhaustion in the precious step such that the silicon may not substantially remain in said magnesium alloy.
Claims21
A method for producing a magnesium-based alloy, the method comprising:
- melting a magnesium or magnesium alloy into a liquid phase;
- adding a silicon compound to the molten magnesium or magnesium alloy;
- evenly spreading the added silicon compound on the molten magnesium or magnesium alloy such that the added silicon compound is not mixed into the molten magnesium or magnesium alloy;
- exhausting at least some of the silicon compound in the molten magnesium or magnesium alloy through a full reaction between the molten magnesium or magnesium alloy and the added silicon compound such that the silicon compound does not substantially remain in the magnesium alloy;
- and
- reacting at least some of the silicon produced as a result of the exhausting in the molten magnesium or magnesium alloy.
