MAGNESIUM ALLOY MEMBER

摘要

The invention offers a magnesium alloy structural member having a high metallic texture. The magnesium alloy structural member is provided with a base material made of magnesium alloy and a covering layer formed on the base material. The base material is provided, in at least one part of its surface, with a surface-processed portion that is subjected to a fine asperity-forming processing so as to obtain a metallic texture. The covering layer is transparent. The structural member can effectively increase the metallic texture by having the surface-processed portion. Because the structural member is provided with the covering layer, it has excellent corrosion resistance. Because the covering layer is transparent, the metallic texture in the surface-processed portion is readily sensed. The asperity-forming processing is performed through hairline finish, diamond cut finish, and the like.
