TMg0.2 Magnesium Copper || QMg0.2 Magnesium Bronze

Comprehensive Analysis of TMg0.2 Magnesium Copper / QMg0.2 Magnesium Bronze

I. Basic Parameters and Composition

Chemical Composition

TMg0.2 Magnesium Copper: Copper-based (balance), magnesium content approximately 0.2%, total impurities ≤0.3% (such as iron, zinc, etc.).

QMg0.2 Magnesium Bronze: Naming convention similar to domestic QMg0.8 (magnesium content 0.7-0.85%), it is inferred that QMg0.2 has a magnesium content of about 0.2%, with trace amounts of magnesium added to the copper matrix to optimize performance.

Physical and Mechanical Properties

Conductivity: TMg0.2 electrical conductivity ≥95% IACS (superior to ordinary copper alloys), suitable for high-frequency conductive applications; QMg0.2 magnesium bronze has slightly lower conductivity but better heat resistance.

Strength: TMg0.2 can achieve a tensile strength of over 390 MPa after cold working hardening, with a hardness of 140-180 HV (sheet); QMg0.2 tensile strength is not specified, but similar QMg0.8 can reach 400-500 MPa.

Corrosion Resistance: Both exhibit good resistance to seawater, acid, and alkaline environments.
