This document specifies a method for the determination of resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of magnesium alloys intended for use in structural applications (such as magnesium front end, gearbox and clutch housing units, steering column parts, shift actuators, valve covers and housings, brackets and intake manifold blades, electronic devices...

This document specifies the methods for the determination of mercury in magnesium and magnesium alloys by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) atomic mass spectrometric analysis and by atomic absorption spectrometric analysis.

This document specifies a method for the determination of lithium contents in magnesium lithium alloys by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) optical emission spectrometry.The method is applicable to the determination of lithium content between 3,0 % and 16,0 % (mass fraction) in magnesium lithium alloys.

This International Standard specifies requirements for the classification of solid wire electrodes, solid wires and rods for fusion welding of magnesium and magnesium alloys. The classification is based on their chemical composition.The compositions of solid wire electrodes for metal inert gas (MIG) welding are the same as solid wire electrodes, solid wires ...

This document describes a method to evaluate the cleanliness and the quality of magnesium and magnesium alloys ingots.The method includes naked eye inspection, the composition analysis and a brightness evaluation procedure based on an ISO standard.
