Properties and applications of aluminum alloys
Properties and applications of aluminum alloys
Aluminum alloy is made of aluminum and other metallic elements (such as copper, magnesium, silicon, manganese, zinc, etc.) by alloying materials. Aluminum alloy has excellent performance in light weight, strength, corrosion resistance and other aspects, so it is widely used in aviation, automotive, construction, electronics, packaging and other industries.
