industrial ALUMINUM raw materials

ALUMINUM INGOT

Aluminum ingot for remelting is produced by molten salt electrolysis method using alumina and cryolite. Products meet the national standard GB/T1196-2002. The surface of ingot is clean and smooth.

Introduction

Aluminum is a silver-white metal that ranks third in the earth's crust after oxygen and silicon.Aluminum is less dense, only 34.61% of iron and 30.33% of copper, so it is also called light metal.Aluminum is the world's output and usage are second only to steel non-ferrous metals.The density of aluminium is only 2.7103g/cm3, about a third of that of steel, copper or brass.Because of its light weight, aluminum is often used in the manufacture of vehicles, trains, subways, ships, airplanes, rockets, airships and other land, sea and air vehicles to reduce the dead weight and increase the loading capacity.

In our daily industrial raw materials called aluminum ingots, according to the national standard (GB/T 1196-2008) should be called "remelting with aluminum ingots", but we are used to "aluminum ingots".It is produced by electrolysis with alumina - cryolite.There are two kinds of aluminum ingots after they enter into industrial application: cast aluminum alloy and deformed aluminum alloy.Casting aluminum and aluminum alloys are castings of aluminum produced by casting method;Deformable aluminium and aluminium alloys are manufactured by means of pressure processing: plates, belts, foils, tubes, rods, moulds, wires and forgings.According to the national standard, "aluminum ingots for remelting are divided into 8 grades according to chemical composition, namely Al99.90, Al99.85, Al99.70, Al99.60, Al99.50, Al99.00, al99.7e, al99.6e" (note: the number after Al is the aluminum content).

Use

Because the industrial ALUMINUM raw materials of aluminum is relatively light, aluminum ingots are widely used in construction, electricity, packaging, transportation and consumer goods and other occupations.Can be used to produce aluminum plate with foil, aluminum alloy, anti-corrosion packaging materials, also can be used for the chemical industry aluminum alloy, utensils, cables, conductive body, central alloy, decoration materials, daily provisions.

In addition, ALUMINUM INGOT supplier can also be used with other metals such as silicon, copper, magnesium, and iron to improve the unalloyed alloys of pure aluminum in forging, chemical, and physical properties.

For example, forging aluminum - silicon (al-si) alloys.Meanwhile, the ZL101(A) alloy has been used to accept intermediate loads of miscellaneous parts, such as aircraft parts, instruments, instrument housings, engine parts, car and ship parts, cylinder bodies, pump bodies, brake drums and electrical parts.

Forging aluminum zinc (al-zn) alloy.Meanwhile, ZL401 alloy is mainly used as various pressure forging parts, working temperature is no more than 200 degrees Celsius, and the construction of shapeless car and aircraft parts.

Forging aluminum magnesium (al-mg) alloy.The ZL301 alloy is mainly used for medium load parts under corrosion or in the cold atmosphere and for parts whose working temperature does not exceed 200 degrees Celsius, such as sea wheel parts and machine shells.
