Effect of Cold Rolling on Magnesium-Based Metal Hydrides

Abstract

In this paper we review the use of cold rolling for the enhancement of magnesium-based alloys. After a short description of the technique, we discuss the main systems that have been investigated in the recent years. Namely pure magnesium and it’s hydride, Mg–Pd, Mg–Al, Mg–Cu, Mg–Fe, and Mg–Ni.
