Abstract
The transfer properties of a congruently melting Mg-Li alloy with a lithium content of 30 at. %, considered as a promising ultralight structural material for the aerospace industry, have been studied experimentally. New experimental data on thermal diffusivity ( a ) and thermal conductivity ( l ) have been obtained in the temperature range of 293-777 K with estimated errors of 2 - 4 % and 3 - 5 %, respectively. The results have been compared with the known literature data on thermal conductivity of alloys from the Mg-Li system. A table of recommended temperature dependences for a and l of the studied composition has been developed.
