What is BS EN 1754 - Magnesium anodes, ingots, and castings about?
BS EN 1754 is a European standard on magnesium and magnesium alloys that discusses the process of designation system for magnesium and magnesium alloys.
BS EN 1754 specifies a material designation system for magnesium and magnesium alloys either by numbers or by symbols for castings including anodes and ingots intended for remelting.
The designation system by numbers is only applicable to standardized magnesium and magnesium alloys.
The designation system by symbols is applicable to
- Standardized magnesium and magnesium alloys
- Non-standardized magnesium and magnesium alloys
NOTE: The standardized designation by symbols does not necessarily imply that the material is standardized.
Who is BS EN 1754 - Magnesium anodes, ingots, and castings for?
BS EN 1754 on magnesium and magnesium alloys is relevant to:
- Manufacturer of magnesium and magnesium alloys anodes, ingots, and castings
Why should you use BS EN 1754 - Magnesium anodes, ingots, and castings?
Material symbols and material numbers are used to represent the type of material and property of a material that gives a brief idea to users.
BS EN 1754 provides guidance on designation by numbers, the structure of the designation, designation by symbols.
As a user of BS EN 1754, you can be ensured of a designation system for anodes, ingots, and castings. With obedience and compliance to BS EN 1754, you can efficiently identify the type of material required for manufacturing. BS EN 1754 helps you to understand the properties of the elements and their compounds.
