On December 11 in Beijing, Raw Material Industry Department of the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) and the magnesium branch of China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association (CNIA) jointly held a workshop on expanding magnesium application. Eight major enterprises such as Wanfeng Auto Wheels, Shanxi-based Yinguang Huasheng Magnesium Co., Ltd., Henan Dowell Technology Co., Ltd., FAW, CRRC Qinghao Sifang Co., Ltd., representative of upstream and downstream interests along the magnesium industrial chain, took part in the meeting.
Participating enterprises gave an introduction on Mg-alloy application status and potentials in automobile and railway train industries, analyzed main factors which hindered extensive application of Mg-alloy materials, and recommended key work and implementation measures on expanding Mg-alloy application.
Participants were of the opinion that magnesium alloy has great application potentials, but there are obstacles such as high application costs, unsmooth communication between suppliers and consumers, incomplete magnesium industry standards. To solve these issues, a number of measures are suggested, including: set up a mechanism to dock upstream and downstream parties along the Mg-alloy application chain, advance innovations on key technologies such as low-cost surface treatment technology, large-sized and complicated thin-wall die-casting technology, complete and improve product and design standards on magnesium hub and other products, and cultivate Mg-alloy application demonstration projects.
