Due to the wide application of magnesium alloys in metals manufacturing, it is very important to employ a reliable method of joining these reactive metals together and to other alloys. 

Due to the wide application of magnesium alloys in metals manufacturing, it is very important to employ a reliable method of joining these reactive metals together and to other alloys. "Welding and joining of magnesium alloys" provides a detailed review of both established and new techniques for magnesium alloy welding and their characteristics, limitations and applications. Part one covers general issues in magnesium welding and joining, such as welding materials, metallurgy and the joining of magnesium alloys to other metals such as aluminium and steel. Part one also includes a discussion on the corrosion and protection of magnesium alloy welds.  Part two reviews particular welding and joining techniques, including inert gas welding, metal inert gas welding and laser welding.   as well as soldering, mechanical joining and adhesive bonding.  Further chapters go over the application of newer techniques to magnesium alloys, such as hybrid laser-arc welding, activating flux tungsten inert gas welding and friction stir.
