Magnesium-thermal zirconium sponge as basis for advanced alloys development
The paper presents the results of the influence produced by the chemical composition of zirconium sponge on the properties of ingots. The distribution of impurities at the surface of a sponge block is illustrated. The influence is established that is produced by impurities on the sponge strength. The charge composition of an alloy in established that ensures the production of ingots meeting the specified requirements.
