What are VTOL's ? Vertical takeover and landing ( ev air vehicles )
The preferred super light alloy ? Magnesium.
Aluminum + Magnesium alloys.
Driftwood has a 43% grade magnesium deposite.
With a potential greater footprint if, one factors older reports.
And... a Rubidium value that needs to be further scoped.
Where do i think magnesium markets are slated ? Everything Aviation / Robotic / Drones ( Domestic + Commercial + Military )
Aluminum + Magnesium ( super light alloys )
Magnesium alloys, on the other hand, can provide the light metal with additional strength and hardness, even extreme cases of both in some recent examples. There are also surface coating methods that can protect the metal from corrosion such as anodising, but can still lack the tensile strength required for demanding VTOL components.
Keronite - material science that pushes the boundaries
Magnesium has the potential to help launch commercial VTOLs via its unique lightweight properties, and in turn help push sustainability into the transport industry. That said, the light metal needs help from modern materials science, and advanced surface coating in particular.
Keronite’s unique Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) coating process provides light metals with the key resistances they need to be introduced to harsh and demanding environments. Magnesium components are placed into a controlled electrolyte bath where plasma discharges create a porous ceramic coating. This coating not only provides impressive strength, hardness and resistance, but offers duplex capabilities via introducing specific regents into the porous layer.
