Thixomolding® provides better mechanical, thermal and EMI shielding properties than any plastic (filled or unfilled). Additionally, the stiffness of magnesium is over 20 times that of most plastics. The increased stiffness allows for thinner sections and reduced material usage that provides a lower cost solution with improved performance. The flow properties of magnesium are better than many filled plastics, allowing for more complex designs. Contact Parkway Products for more details on the enhanced design possibilities of magnesium.
