What are their properties? Learn more. 5454 Aluminum Tanker Plate Energy reduction and lightweight structure have become a global trend. Compared with steel, aluminum alloy tank truck is of low density, good corrosion resistance, easy welding, long life and high recycling value. More than 90% of the tankers are made of aluminum alloy in Europe, the United States, Australia and Japan. The production of tank body has high requirements for the aluminum alloy such as good corrosion resistance, high processing performance, strong resistance to pressure. It can be processed with bending, stamping and stretching. These requirements are exactly in line with the 5xxx aluminum. 5xxx aluminum is with Magnesium as the main alloy element, about 3-5%. The

2. difference in the magnesium content determines the performance and use of the different 5 series aluminum sheets. The main grades have 5052, 5083,5005, 5086, 5754 and 5454 aluminum. 5052, 50583 and 5454 aluminum sheets are widely used in passenger cars, semi-trailers, vans and fuel tankers. At present, most aluminum alloy load tanker manufacturers mainly use 5083 aluminum alloy as the material of the tank body. The use of 5182 plate can better reflect its corrosion resistance and welding performance. In the case of the same loading weight, the wall thickness of the tank body can be thinner and its own weight is lighter. 5454 aluminum sheets can be used in high temperature environment or transport high temperature liquids. 5454 aluminum plate belongs to the 5xxx Al-Mg alloy. Its magnesium is about 2.4-3.0%. Other alloy elements are silicon, copper, zinc, manganese, titanium, chromium, iron, etc., to improve the metal hardness. It has excellent rust resistance. Its strength is about 20% higher than that of the 5052 aluminum sheet. 5454 aluminum plate is of low density, high strength, corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity, good rigidity and strong shock resistance. It has many tempers including O and H temper. Haomei Aluminum is one of the big 5454 aluminum plate suppliers in China. 5454 aluminum sheet price is affected by many factors. The first factor is the aluminum ingot price. The quotation for the 5454 aluminum plate of the same specification will also vary with the fluctuations of aluminum ingot price. Another factor is processing cost. The processing cost of different alloys are also different. For the international trade of 5454 aluminum sheet, the shipping cost also has an effect on the final price.

3. 6014 Aluminum in Cars The density of aluminum is lower than that of iron and copper, so in comparison, cars made of aluminum alloys are relatively light. Many aluminum alloys like 6014 aluminum is relatively easy to process and manufacture, and can be formed into various shapes by cutting, compressing, and stretching. In addition, aluminum alloys have relatively high electrical and thermal conductivity, which arewidely used in automotive applications, especially for automotive radiators and various electronic devices in automotive applications. The overall performance of automotive aluminum is very high. After technical treatment, the aluminum alloy material has strong chemical properties and pressure resistance. Compared with steel, aluminum is more active, easy tor process and of low price, which other metal materials can’t reach. In order to get better automobile performance and reduce environmental pollution, aluminum alloys have gradually entered the automotive industry. Nowadays, aluminum alloys have a high influence in the automobile manufacturing industry.

4. There are two ways to reduce the weight of the car: one is to change the frame structure of the car; the other is to choose relatively lighter raw material. Up to now, through the analysis and investigation of the automobile industry, modern automobile manufacturers focus on the application of aluminum alloys. Automotive aluminum sheet also has high environmental protection and energy saving effect. The methods of reducing the fuel consumption of a car is to reduce the weight of the car and improve the efficiency of the car engine. Reducing the weight of the car is the most effective and direct method. The aluminum alloy is relatively light, so it can be used to effectively improve the energy-saving effect of the car. 6082 aluminum plate is a kind of heat-treatable alloy with good formability, weldability, workability and corrosion resistance. At the same time, it has medium strength and can still maintain good operability after annealing. It is mainly used in transportation and structural engineering industries such as bridges, cranes, automobile roof panel, transport aircraft, transport ships, ship parts, electronic parts,etc. It is usually used in the form of thick aluminum plate in T6 temper. Compared with traditional carbon steels, it has many differences in physical properties such as density, melting point, thermal conductivity, yield stress, volume shrinkage during solidification, elongation, and tensile strength. In the process of using aluminum alloy for building ship, we need to consider the structural load and corrosive environment of the ship. Take the design of a 14m aluminum alloy ship for example. Considering that the design volume-length ratio of the ship has a greater impact on damping, therefore,

5. reducing the weight of the ship as much as possible has a greater impact on the seaworthiness of the speedboat. 6082 plate has great advantages in terms of wear resistance and impact resistance. Since 6082 plate is of easy oxidation, low melting point, and large linear expansion coefficient, it increases the welding difficulty during ship construction. At present, the commonly used welding technologies mainly include TIG welding, MIG welding, etc. There are automatic, semi-automatic and manual welding modes. In practical applications, various welding modes are used to complement each other. For example, TIG tungsten welding is usually used in automatic and manual welding, and MIG argon arc welding is often used in semi-automatic welding. At present, the most commonly used welding method in aluminum alloy shipbuilding is MIG welding, which has the advantages of igh deposition efficiency and low cost of argon gas. Aluminium 7068 Properties The main alloy elements of 7xxx aircraft aluminum are zinc, magnesium and copper. It is generally divided into Al-Zn-Mg and Al-Zn-Mg-Cu, which is respectively easily

6. weldable and not easily weldable. Both are heat-treated aluminum alloys. Zinc and magnesium will be combined for strengthening. In addition to the proper ratio of primary and secondary alloy elements, it is particularly strict to maintain low impurity elements Si and Fe content, so that 7xxx aluminum alloy has igh strength, high toughness and good plastic workability. Its tensile strength is 220~610 Mpa, which is mainlly used in aviation, automobile, sports and 3C technology products. Al-Zn-Mg Alloy 7xxx Al-Zn-Mg aluminum alloy has good weldability and are used in products with high appearance requirements, as well as products with high strength and fracture toughness requirements like 3C products, motorcycle/bicycle frame and automobile and motorcycle related parts production, baseball and softball bat production. The 7xxx aluminum properties enable these products have better environmental resistance and pressure resistance. The typical grades are 7003, 7005 and 7046. Al-Zn-Mg-Cu Alloy This alloy is also known as ultra-dura aluminum, whihc has poor weldability and can meet high-strength and high fatigue resistance requirements. The typical grades are 7001, 7050, 7075, 7068 aluminum sheet. They are used for bicycle front Fork, baseball/softball bat, aerospace industry, automobile, motorcycle/bicycle related parts,etc. 7068 alloy is a 7000 series aluminium-zinc alloy registered with the US Aluminium Association and produced to AMS 4331 (chemical composition and mechanical properties) and AMS 2772 (heat treatment). Lets’ have a look of aluminum 7068 properties.

7. Its typical yield strength reaches 700MPa, which is 15%~20% higher than 7075 alloy. Its high temperature performance is better than 7075 and corrosion resistance is equivalent to 7075 alloy. The comprehensive performance of 7068 aluminum is good.
