Aluminum is also called pure aluminum or electrolytic aluminum. Aluminum alloy is an alloy material in which pure aluminum is added with magnesium, copper, manganese, silicon, zinc and other elements. It is collectively called aluminum alloy. Aluminum is generally used in the wire and cable industry, while aluminum alloys are widely used in industry, such as various industrial aluminum profiles. The hardness increases after adding alloys. Aluminum alloys are divided into 1 to 9 types of alloy aluminum. Such as aluminum-magnesium alloy, aluminum-zinc alloy, aluminum-copper alloy. Aluminum-magnesium-zinc alloy is a high-strength aluminum alloy used in aircraft manufacturing and aerospace industry.
Aluminum alloys are divided into deformed alloy materials and cast aluminum alloy materials. Deformed aluminum alloy materials are profiles made by mixing alloy materials and casting them into billets through rolling, extrusion, stretching, and forging. For example, various industrial materials are deformed aluminum Alloy, cast aluminum alloy is a variety of parts blanks made by melting mixed alloy raw materials, such as various machine and automobile parts are cast aluminum alloy materials. Aluminum is the main raw material for this alloy profile. Raw aluminum ingots (99% purity) are the raw materials for processing various aluminum alloy profiles.
Performance and characteristics of pure aluminum: The density of pure aluminum is very small, and its strength can be more than doubled through cold working. Aluminum alloy has good resistance to atmospheric corrosion and water corrosion. The use of corrosion inhibitors can resist weak alkali corrosion; the use of protective measures can improve the corrosion resistance of aluminum alloys. Aluminum has good electrical and thermal conductivity and no low-temperature brittleness. The polished surface of aluminum alloy has high reflectivity to white light and good reflective properties to infrared, ultraviolet, electromagnetic waves, thermal radiation, etc. Non-magnetic, no sparks on impact, sound-absorbing, and resistant to nuclear radiation.
