Abstract
Alloys of the Al - Mg system are characterized by an elevated corrosio n resistance and ductility and good casting properties. The strength o f these alloys depends considerably on the concentration of the main a lloying element, namely, magnesium. Alloying with small amounts of tra nsition metals, for example, Ti, Zr, Cr, Sc, affects markedly the stru cture and properties of Al - Mg alloys. The present work is devoted to the structure and properties of Al - Mg alloys alloyed with scandium.
