metal· JVASP-140239· Mg16Al12Si
Mg16Al12Si is a magnesium-aluminum-silicon intermetallic compound that belongs to the family of lightweight metal alloys combining magnesium's low density with aluminum and silicon for improved strength and thermal stability. This material is primarily of research interest for aerospace and automotive applications where weight reduction is critical, as the magnesium base enables significant mass savings compared to aluminum or steel alternatives while the intermetallic structure provides elevated-temperature strength.
