Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of alloys, in particular to an aluminum-lithium alloy. Background technique [0002] Adding lithium as an alloying element to aluminum forms an aluminum-lithium alloy. Lithium can both reduce the density of aluminum and increase the modulus of elasticity. Generally, for every 1wt.% lithium added to an aluminum alloy, the density decreases by about 3%, while its modulus of elasticity increases by about 6%. Aluminum-lithium alloys are mainly developed for the weight reduction of aircraft and aerospace equipment, so they are mainly used in the aerospace field, as well as ordnance and nuclear reactor materials, tank armor-piercing bombs, torpedoes and other weapon structural parts. Aluminum-lithium alloys have been used in military aircraft, civil airliners and helicopters, mainly for fuselage frames, hatches, fuel tanks, etc. Using aluminum-lithium alloy to manufacture aircraft can reduce its weight by 14.6w...
