The International Magnesium Association (IMA) has extended the submission deadline for abstracts of papers proposed for presentation at its 82nd Annual World Magnesium Conference to January 20, 2025.

The IMA’s World Magnesium Conference, scheduled for May 11-13, 2025, in Salzburg, Austria, is the premier international magnesium industry conference. The event will highlight technological advances, innovative applications, and emerging developments in the global marketplace. Further, this valuable conference will provide magnesium industry professionals with the latest information and advances on magnesium processes, applications, technology, and environmental concerns.

The IMA invites professionals to share your expertise and knowledge by presenting a paper at the 2025 IMA World Magnesium Conference. This is an opportunity to be a part of advancing the industry and have an unparalleled opportunity to address magnesium professionals, industry leaders, and decision-makers, who seek cutting-edge information and problem-solving resources.

The IMA Program Committee is pleased to invite abstracts of no more than 150 words for a proposed presentation. Abstracts are invited from around the world to address all topics related to metal magnesium.

Presentation Categories

Presentations are being sought on the latest developments in the magnesium industry, including new or improved materials, processes, applications, markets, recycling, fundamental research, emerging technologies, and all other topics related to magnesium metal. Presentation slides will be made available to conference attendees. Presenters may submit papers for review and possible publication in the Journal of Magnesium and Alloys. Presentations at the event will be 25-30 minutes each, with five minutes allotted for questions and answers.
