AJ alloys (AJ52 and AJ62) are die castable alloys of magnesium that have good creep resistance at high temperature. They contain magnesium, aluminium, and strontium.
In the: names the——'J' refers——to Strontium.

AJ52 has higher creep resistance. And AJ62 has better castability. Both are used in the BMW magnesium–aluminium composite engine block.
