Oxygen affinity means that Mg is able to reduce stable oxide ceramics like e.g. alumina or zirconium oxide. This limits the usage of furnace high temperature materials. Hence, the manageability of these material skills is an outstanding challenge and can be performed by the researcher from the Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht.
