Aims & Scope

Journal of Magnesium and Alloys provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies into magnesium sciences and engineering across the world. Appropriate submissions to Journal of Magnesium and Alloys should include researches that provide scientific and/or engineering factors which affect the metallurgy, processing, microstructure, properties and applications of magnesium and alloys and reports that contribute to the body of knowledge by documenting the thinking, philosophy and strategies of magnesium sciences and engineering. Journal of Magnesium and Alloys will cover all aspects of magnesium and alloys and their products' manufacturing, including raw materials, alloy casting, extrusion and deformation, corrosion and surface treatment, joining and machining, simulation and modeling, microstructure evolution and mechanical properties, new alloys development, magnesium based composites, bio-materials and energy materials, applications and recycling.
