Product Description

High-strength aluminum-lithium alloy (fifth-generation aluminum alloy)

Aluminum-lithium alloys have excellent mechanical properties and processing properties, which can replace the current 2024, 2A12, 2A14, 7075, 7050, 7055 and other high-strength alloys. Under the premise of ensuring the same mechanical properties, the weight can be reduced by 5% to 20%, which is suitable for military use. The current urgent need for weight reduction in aircraft and civil electronic products has important economic and social benefits.

Aluminum-lithium alloy characteristics
1. The density is low, every time 1% of lithium is added, the density is reduced by 3%
2. High specific modulus, high specific strength, instead of conventional high-strength aluminum alloy, the modulus of elasticity is increased by 6%, and the stiffness is increased by 15%-20%
3. Excellent superplastic forming performance
4. Excellent corrosion resistance
5. Good casting, hot processing (rolling, forging, extrusion), welding
(Laser welding, friction stir welding), machining formability
