Abstract
In recent years, magnesium alloy is frequently used for car components, computer parts and camera parts. However, a lot of magnesium dust made by the manufacturing process is dumped as industrial waste, because the surface area per unit volume is wide and the dust is easy oxidized during the fusion process. The magnesium dust might be able to be recycled by compaction forming for reducing the oxidation. In this paper, the compaction forming of the magnesium dust is attempted. For the compact obtained, strength test and check of the defect were performed. Furthermore, the melting experiment of the compact into fused aluminum was examined to apply the compact to the aluminum alloy additive.
