The invention discloses a high-
toughness light-weight automobile body material for a
new energy automobile, and belongs to the technical field of advanced non-
ferrous metal materials, the material comprises, by weight, 1.2%-1.8% of Li, 0.8%-1.5% of Cu, 0.6%-1.2% of Mg, 0.3%-0.8% of Zn, 0.10%-0.18% of Zr, 0.05%-0.15% of Sc, 0.02%-0.08% of Ti, less than or equal to 0.15% of Fe, less than or equal to 0.12% of Si and the balance Al and inevitable impurities, by optimizing the
alloy component proportion and the preparation technology, the
material density is reduced to 2.58 g / cm < 3 >-2.65 g / cm < 3 >, the tensile strength reaches 520 MPa-580 MPa, the elongation at break reaches 12%-16%, and the service life of the material is prolonged. The
alloy has the advantages that the tensile strength is high, the
fracture toughness reaches 28 MPa.m < 0.5 >-35 MPa.m < 0.5 >, the
anisotropy difference is smaller than 15%, the
welding joint coefficient reaches 0.75-0.85, the comprehensive performance is excellent, and the
alloy is suitable for manufacturing
new energy automobile body structural parts.
