The purity can reach more than 99.00%. Because it does not contain other technical elements, the production process is relatively simple and the price is relatively cheap. It is the most commonly used series in conventional industries at present. Most of the current circulation in the market are 1050 तथा 1060 श्रृंखला. The minimum aluminum content of the 1000 series aluminum plate is determined according to the last two Arabic numerals. उदाहरण के लिए, the last two Arabic numerals of the 1050 श्रृंखला हैं 50. According to the international brand naming principle, the aluminum content must reach 99.5% or more to qualify as a product. my country’s aluminum alloy technical standard (gB/T3880-2006) also clearly stipulates that the aluminum content of 1050 should reach 99.5%. In the same way, की एल्यूमीनियम सामग्री 1060 series aluminum plates must reach more than 99.6%.

The 2000 series aluminum plate belongs to aviation aluminum, which is not commonly used in conventional industries at present. At present, there are fewer manufacturers producing 2000 series aluminum sheets in our country. The quality can not be compared with foreign countries. Currently imported aluminum sheets are mainly provided by South Korean and German manufacturers. With the development of my country’s aerospace industry, the production technology of 2000 series aluminum plates will be further improved.

Three. 3000 series aluminum plate represents 3003 3003 3A21 mainly. It can also be called anti-rust aluminum plate.

It can also be called aluminum-magnesium alloy. The main features are low density, उच्च तन्यता ताकत और उच्च बढ़ाव. In the same area, the weight of aluminum-magnesium alloy is lower than other series. इसलिए, it is often used in aviation, such as aircraft fuel tanks. It is also widely used in conventional industries. The processing technology is continuous casting and rolling, which belongs to the series of hot-rolled aluminum plates, so it can be used for oxidation deep processing. In my country, the 5000 series aluminum plate belongs to one of the more mature aluminum plate series.

6.

Aluminum and its alloys

1. शुद्ध एल्यूमीनियम
अल्युमीनियम (अल्युमीनियम, अल्युमीनियम) is characterized by a low density of 2.72g/cm3, which is only about 1/3 of the density of iron or copper. Good electrical and thermal conductivity, second only to silver and copper. The chemical properties of aluminum are very active. In the air, the surface of aluminum can combine with oxygen to form a dense Al2O3 protective film to prevent further oxidation of aluminum. इसलिए, aluminum has good corrosion resistance in air and water, but aluminum is not resistant to acid, alkali, and salt corrosion.

Aluminum has a face-centered cubic lattice, good plasticity (δ=50%, ψ=80%), and can be processed into wires, plates, strips, pipes and other profiles through cold or hot pressure processing, but the strength is not high, σb=80MPa , After cold working, σb = (150 ~ 250) एमपीए. इसलिए, pure aluminum is mainly used to make wires, केबल, RADIATORS, and daily necessities or alloys that require stainless steel, जंग प्रतिरोध, and low strength requirements.
Industrial pure aluminum (commercial purity aluminum) is not as pure as chemically pure aluminum, it has more or less impurities (जैसे Fe, और, आदि।). The more impurities contained in aluminum, the lower its electrical conductivity, ऊष्मीय चालकता, atmospheric corrosion resistance and plasticity.
The grades of China’s industrial pure aluminum are compiled based on the limits of impurities, such as L1, L2, L3… L is the Chinese pinyin prefix of the word “अल्युमीनियम”, and the larger the sequence number attached thereto, the lower the purity.

2. एल्यूमीनियम मिश्र धातु
The strength of pure aluminum is very low, so it is not suitable for structural materials. In order to improve its strength, the most effective way is to add alloying elements, such as Si, घन, मिलीग्राम, एम.एन., आदि।, to make aluminum alloy (aerolite). These aluminum alloys have high strength and low density, especially high specific strength (वह है, the ratio of strength limit to density) and good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance.

(1) Classification of aluminum alloys
According to the composition and production process characteristics of aluminum alloys, aluminum alloys can be divided into two types: deformed aluminum alloys and cast aluminum alloys.
It can be seen from the figure that when the alloy with a composition less than D/point can form a single-phase solid solution structure when heated, it has good plasticity and is suitable for pressure processing, so it is called a deformed aluminum alloy. If the composition of the deformed aluminum alloy is less than the F point, the composition of its solid solution does not change with the change of temperature, because it cannot be strengthened by heat treatment, it is called an aluminum alloy that cannot be strengthened by heat treatment; the composition of the alloy between F and D/, its solid solution composition It changes with the change of temperature, so it can be strengthened by heat treatment, so it is called aluminum alloy that can be strengthened by heat treatment. Alloys with a composition greater than D/point have a low melting point eutectic structure, good fluidity, and are suitable for casting. They are called cast aluminum alloys, but they are not suitable for pressure processing.
Deformable aluminum alloys can also be divided into antirust aluminum, duralumin, super duralumin and wrought aluminum according to their main performance characteristics.
Cast aluminum alloys can also be divided into: Al-Si, Al-Cu, Al-Mg, Al-Zn, आदि. according to the main alloy elements.

(2) Heat treatment characteristics of aluminum alloy
Aluminum alloy can not only improve its strength by cold deformation work hardening method, but also further improve its strength by heat treatment – “age hardening” method.
The heat treatment mechanism of aluminum alloy is different from that of steel. After quenching, the hardness and strength of the steel increase immediately, while the plasticity decreases. तथापि, the aluminum alloy whose composition is between F and D/ is heated to the α phase region, kept warm, and water-cooled and quenched, and a supersaturated α solid solution can be obtained at room temperature. The strength and hardness cannot be increased immediately, but the plasticity has been significantly improved. This process is called quenching or solution treatment. Since the supersaturated solid solution obtained after quenching is unstable, there is a tendency to precipitate the second phase (strengthening phase). When placed at room temperature for a period of time or heated at low temperature, the atoms have the ability to move in the lattice and gradually transform to a stable state, resulting in a significant increase in strength and hardness and a decrease in plasticity. The phenomenon that the alloy after solution treatment is further strengthened over time is called “age strengthening” या “age hardening”. The aging at room temperature is called natural aging, and the aging under heating is called artificial aging.

(3) Deformed aluminum alloy
1. Anti-rust aluminum alloy
The main alloying elements are Mn and Mg. This kind of alloy is single-phase solid solution after forging and annealing, so it has good corrosion resistance and good plasticity. Such as LF5, LF11, LF21, आदि. This type of alloy is mainly used for rolling, वेल्डिंग, or corrosion-resistant structural parts with small loads, जैसे ईंधन टैंक, conduits, तारों, light-load skeletons, and various living appliances.
All kinds of antirust aluminum alloys are aluminum alloys that cannot be strengthened by heat treatment. To increase the strength of the alloy, it can be processed by cold pressure, which can produce work hardening.
2. Hard aluminum alloy
Duraluminium is basically an Al-Cu-Mg alloy and contains a small amount of Mn. All kinds of duraluminium can be aged strengthened, but their corrosion resistance is poor, especially in seawater, so protective duraluminium parts are needed Its exterior is covered with a layer of high-purity aluminum to make aluminum-clad duralumin.
The hard aluminum grades use the Chinese pinyin prefix “LY” का “aluminum hard” and the sequence number, such as LY1 (rivet hard aluminum), LY11 (standard hard aluminum) and LY12 (high-strength hard aluminum).
Duralumin is a structural material with high specific strength, and has been widely used in the aviation industry and instrument manufacturing.
3. Super hard aluminum alloy (SD alloy)
It is Al-Cu-Mg-Zn alloy, which is made of adding Zn on the basis of duralumin. This type of alloy is currently the strongest aluminum alloy with higher specific strength, so it is called super duralumin. The disadvantage is also that the corrosion resistance is very poor, and the artificial aging temperature can be increased or the aluminum can be clad.
The grade of superhard aluminum alloy is indicated by the Chinese pinyin prefix “LC” का “Al Chao” plus the serial number. Such as LC4, LC6, आदि।, are mostly used to manufacture important components with high stress, such as aircraft girders.
4. Wrought aluminum alloy
It is an Al-Cu-Mg-Si alloy. Although there are many types of alloy elements, the content of each element is small, so it has good thermoplasticity and corrosion resistance, and its strength is comparable to that of duralumin. The strength can be increased after quenching and aging.
The grade of wrought aluminum alloy is indicated by the Chinese pinyin prefix “LD” का “aluminum forging” plus a sequence number, such as LD5, LD7, आदि. Due to its good forging performance, it is mainly used for forgings or die forgings that bear heavy loads on aircraft or diesel locomotives.

(4) cast aluminum alloy (cast aluminum alloy)
There are many types of cast aluminum alloys. उनमें से, aluminum-silicon alloys have good casting properties, पर्याप्त ताकत, और कम घनत्व, and are the most widely used, से अधिक के लिए लेखांकन 50% of the total output of cast aluminum alloys. और (10-13)% Al-Si alloy is the most typical aluminum-silicon alloy, which belongs to the eutectic composition, and is usually called “silicon aluminum alloy”.
The grade of cast aluminum alloy is represented by the Chinese pinyin prefix of “Zhu” + अल + other main element symbols and percentage content. उदाहरण के लिए, ZAlSi12 represents a cast Al-Si alloy containing 12% और. The code name of the alloy is represented by the Chinese pinyin prefix “ZL” का “cast aluminum” plus three digits. The first digit indicates the alloy category, and the second and third digits indicate the serial number of the alloy. Example ZL102 represents No. 2 Al-Si cast aluminum alloy.
Cast aluminum alloys are generally used to make parts with light weight, जंग प्रतिरोध, complex shapes and certain mechanical properties.
