Abstract

Magnesium alloys have a high potential for reducing mass in automotive and aerospace applications due to their extraordinary low density. However, their utilization is often restricted since magnesium suffers from several material inherent deficiencies like low stiffness, poor high temperature strength, low wear and creep resistance as well as a high thermal expansion coefficient. Certain remedies have been developed in the past, e.g., extremely high in-axis strength and stiffness values can be reached by the reinforcement of magnesium with carbon long fibers. This paper reviews the investigations at the University of Erlangen on carbon long-fibers introduced into magnesium by a gas pressure melt infiltration technique.
