Application:

Aerospace field:

Manufacture of aircraft fuselage, wings and engine parts, etc. Due to its light weight, high strength and good corrosion resistance, aluminum plates can reduce the weight of aircraft, improve fuel efficiency and flight performance. Structural parts and shells of spacecraft also often use aluminum plates.

Transportation field:

In automobile manufacturing, it is used for body covers, engine covers, trunk covers, etc., which helps to reduce vehicle weight and improve fuel economy. Aluminum plates are used for body and internal structural parts of rail transit vehicles, such as trains and subways.

Construction field:

Panels for building curtain walls, which provide a beautiful appearance and good weather resistance. – Interior decoration, such as ceilings, partitions, etc.

Electronic and electrical field:

Manufacture of enclosures and radiators for electronic products such as computers, mobile phones, televisions, etc. – Busbar, transformer enclosures, etc. in the electric power industry.

Packaging field:

Food and beverage packaging, such as cans. Packaging materials for medicines and cosmetics.

Industrial manufacturing field:

Mechanical parts, such as molds, measuring tools, etc. Manufacturing of chemical equipment. In conclusion, aluminum sheet has important applications in many industries because of its excellent performance.

Physical and Chemical Properties:

Physical Properties:

Appearance:

Usually appears silver-white with a metallic luster. Density: Less dense, about 2.7 g/cm ³, belongs to light metals. Conductivity:

Has good electrical conductivity, second only to silver, copper and gold in metals.

Thermal Conductivity:

Good thermal conductivity, often used in heat sinks. Ductile: Has good ductility, can be calendered into thin plates or drawn into thin wires. Hardness:

Relatively soft, but its alloy can increase hardness.

Chemical Properties:

Corrosion Resistance:

A dense alumina protective film can be formed in the air, making it have good corrosion resistance. But in strong acid and alkali environments, this protective film may be destroyed.

Oxidation: It is easy to react with oxygen to form alumina at high temperatures.

Reactivity: It can react with dilute hydrochloric acid, dilute sulfuric acid, etc. to generate corresponding salts and hydrogen.

Stability:

It is relatively stable chemically at room temperature and pressure. For example, the use of aluminum plates on building exterior walls takes advantage of its good corrosion resistance and appearance; while it is used as a heat sink in electronic equipment, it takes advantage of its excellent thermal and electrical conductivity.
