This is believed to be the first independent comparative test ever
made to determine the relative value
of the different products designed to
prevent corrosion of the metal.
Magnesium, which is’ one third
lighter in weight than aluminum is
extremely valuable in structural
work where. strength and _— light
weight are essential. At the present
time it is much used in the manu-!

many other types of machinery with .

But, even more than aluminum,
magnesium becomes corroded quick.
