Problems solved by technology

However, in addition to the shortcomings of powder metallurgy such as long process, easy oxidation of powder surface to introduce impurities, and difficulty in densification, large size is also a bottleneck that it cannot break through. It is difficult to use powder metallurgy to produce large-sized aluminum-lithium alloy ingots that meet the needs of aerospace.
[0012] In summary, it is almost impossible to produce three-dimensional large-scale aluminum-lithium alloy ingots that require integral components using ingot metallurgy and powder metallurgy.
There is no report on the production of industrial-scale aluminum-lithium alloys by spray forming technology
