OSTI ID:4264644

The hardness of magnesium-thorium alloye and triple alloys of thorium- magnesium with cerium, manganese, aluminum, calcium, and zinc were measured and results tabulated. The microstructure and thermal analyses showed that magnesium with thorium forms a eutectic type diagram. The eutectic consists of alpha solution crystals and Mg/sub 2/Th(Mg/sub 5/Th) compounds with 40 to 42% Th concentration, melting at 580 . (R.V.J.)
