In an effort to reduce fuel consumption there is a growing interest in replacing steel with lighter materials.  Magnesium alloys are a class of very light weight materials that are being explored to replace steel in certain applications.  In this video, concerns about the mechanical properties, flammability and corrosion resistance are being addressed in order to provide a larger number of applications for these exciting alloys.

This video is a content resource for the Impact of Materials on Society (IMOS) course, an introductory level undergraduate course about Materials Science and Engineering. But it can be used independent of the IMOS course in K-12 education, informal science education and outreach as well.
 
The IMOS course was developed through a partnership with faculty at the University of Florida, the Materials Research Society and the Department of Defense. The IMOS course leads the way in building broader bridges between research in engineering, the humanities and social sciences. This approach creates successful technologies that address critical social issues in ways that respect human values and belief systems.
