Special reports were given and academic discussions were conducted on topics such as the mechanism of action, rare earth magnesium alloys for automobiles and surface protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The application of rare earths in metal materials is of great significance. It can not only significantly improve the strength, toughness, corrosion resistance and other properties of the material, but also optimize the microstructure of the material, thereby enhancing the overall performance and service life of the material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can also save precious metal resources and expand the metal industry. The application fields of materials promote technological progress and industrial upgrading and provide strong support for the development of modern industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the \"chain master\" enterprise of the rare earth industry chain, China Northern Rare Earth has always adhered to the market orientation in recent years and increased the research and development and production of rare earth metals and alloy materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clearly the industry in China is on heightened alert as to looming disruption potentially coming from the West, although this was not explicitly called out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After years of rapid development, its affiliated <a href=\"https:\/\/en.ruixin-eht.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" class=\"external-link\">Ruixin Company<span class=\"sr-only\"> (opens in a new tab)<\/span><\/a> has grown into the largest in the country.
