Magnesium alloys are prized in aerospace, automotive, and electronics for their lightness and strength, but they are limited by poor corrosion resistance. To overcome this, researchers have developed Al/Mg/Al laminates, cladding magnesium with aluminum to combine their strengths: lightness and better corrosion resistance. Various methods such as co-extrusion, casting, and welding have been explored, with rolling emerging as a preferred technique for its flexibility and efficiency.
