Problems solved by technology

In order to increase the strength, hot rolling + annealing treatment + large deformation cold hardening + stabilizing heat treatment process is adopted. As a result, the strength is further improved, but the plasticity of the material is often sacrificed, and the process is complicated and costly. It is only suitable for 2-3mm or less For other complex structural profiles, pipes, bars, forgings and large thickness plates and strips, it is difficult to process large deformation and cold work hardening, and it is difficult to improve the strength of structural materials, which greatly limits the application of high-strength aluminum alloy structural products. Development and Application
[0004] 7XXX series alloys such as 7A04, 7A09 and 7055 are high-strength alloys whose strength can reach 520-680MPa, but the density of such alloys is too large, about 2.78-2.86g / cm 3 , obviously not good for weight reduction design
Obviously, the density of the alloy is high, and the strength is as low as 379MPa, which cannot meet the design requirements for weight reduction.
