Pan Fusheng, Doctor of Engineering, Professor of Materials Science of Chongqing University, Doctoral Supervisor, Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering. He is currently the chairman of Chongqing Science and Technology Association and the dean of Chongqing Science and Technology Research Institute. Director of National Engineering Technology Research Center for Magnesium Alloy Materials. Visiting scientist at the University of Stuttgart in Germany and Chiba University in Japan. Won more than 130 national invention patents.

Why develop magnesium alloys? "Because magnesium resources are inexhaustible." Pan Fusheng elaborated on the current status and future of the magnesium alloy industry. He said that the reason for studying magnesium alloys is that magnesium alloys have obvious performance characteristics and huge application potential. For example, magnesium alloys have good shock absorption performance, which is more than 25 times that of aluminum alloys; thermal conductivity and shielding performance are better than aluminum alloys; Bone materials are similar and biodegradable, so their biological properties are also good; in addition, magnesium alloys have excellent energy properties and can be 100% recycled.

In the case of effectively reducing energy consumption and emissions, magnesium alloys also have very good functional characteristics, so there is a huge market demand in the fields of national defense, transportation, 3C products, energy products, and medical treatment. Magnesium alloy has been included in the national plan as a strategic new material.

In today's society, the application of magnesium alloys has exceeded 300,000 tons. Among them, the automobile industry is the largest consumer of magnesium alloys. Magnesium alloy steering wheel skeletons have been widely used in more than 80% of automobiles. Large-scale magnesium alloy components such as instrument panel brackets, central control brackets, display brackets, and air-conditioning brackets have been widely used in high-end brand cars. In addition, There are also applications in rail transit, motorcycles, power supplies, high thermal conductivity products and high damping products, and biological materials.

The participation of more and more mega-enterprises will provide more scientific management guarantees for the future development of the magnesium industry. The increased pressure on energy conservation and emission reduction, the improvement of national defense security levels and the improvement of life quality requirements will provide rapid development of the magnesium industry in the future. Increased market demand.
