· Mg4 Th2

Mg4Th2 is an intermetallic compound combining magnesium and thorium, representing a research-phase material in the magnesium alloy family. This compound is primarily investigated for structural applications requiring elevated-temperature strength and creep resistance, with potential use in aerospace and automotive sectors where lightweight magnesium alloys are needed but conventional formulations lack sufficient high-temperature stability. The thorium addition provides significant strengthening through precipitation hardening and grain refinement, though the radioactive nature of thorium and material processing complexity limit widespread commercial adoption compared to rare-earth-containing Mg alloys.
