Aluminum sheet, as a widely used metal material, is made of a wide variety of materials, each with its own characteristics. The following will detail several common aluminum plate materials.
First, pure aluminum plate
Pure aluminum plate is made of pure aluminum after processing the plate, its main component is aluminum, the impurity content is very low. Pure aluminum plate has good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and plasticity, while light weight, corrosion resistance. However, the strength of pure aluminum plate is low and the hardness is not high, making it limited in some applications.
Second, aluminum alloy plate
Aluminum alloy plate is based on pure aluminum with a certain proportion of alloying elements, such as copper, magnesium, silicon, zinc, etc., to improve its mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. According to the different alloying elements, aluminum alloy plate can be divided into various types, such as 2024 aluminum alloy plate, 5052 aluminum alloy plate, 6061 aluminum alloy plate and so on. These aluminum alloy plates have excellent strength, hardness, corrosion resistance and processing performance, and are widely used in aviation, automotive, shipping, construction and other fields.
Aluminum-manganese alloy plate
Aluminum-manganese alloy plate is a kind of commonly used rust-proof aluminum plate, which improves the corrosion resistance of aluminum plate by adding appropriate amount of manganese element. Aluminum-manganese alloy plate has good forming and processing performance, corrosion resistance, weldability and medium strength, and is suitable for the manufacture of parts and components requiring low strength but good corrosion resistance, such as oil tanks, oil tubes, liquid containers and so on.
Fourth, aluminum-magnesium alloy plate
Aluminum-magnesium alloy plate is by adding magnesium in aluminum to improve its mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the alloy plate. Aluminum-magnesium alloy plate has a small density, high strength, good thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and other characteristics, suitable for the manufacture of aircraft fuel tanks, fuel lines, and transportation vehicles, ships, sheet metal parts, instrumentation, street lamps brackets and rivets, hardware, electrical shells and so on.
Aluminum-zinc alloy plate
Aluminum-zinc alloy plate is by adding zinc to aluminum to improve its strength and corrosion resistance of the alloy sheet. Aluminum-zinc alloy plate has good forming and processing performance, welding performance and corrosion resistance, and at the same time has high strength and hardness, suitable for the manufacture of parts and components requiring high strength and corrosion resistance, such as architectural curtain walls, roofs, wall panels and so on.
Six, coated aluminum plate
Coated aluminum plate is coated with one or more layers of coating on the surface of aluminum plate to improve its corrosion resistance, decorative and functional. Common coating materials include polyester, fluorocarbon, acrylic and so on. Coated aluminum panels are rich in color, weather resistance, easy to clean and other characteristics, widely used in construction, home appliances, transportation and other fields.
