Aluminum alloys have been used in the shipbuilding industry for nearly a hundred years. With the rapid development of domestic and foreign shipbuilding industries, more and more attention has been paid to the lightweight of ships. Aluminum alloys have small specific gravity and elastic modulus, corrosion resistance, weldability, and easy processing. , non-magnetic and good low-temperature performance, etc., used in ships, has the following advantages:

Due to its small specific gravity, it can reduce the weight of the ship, reduce the capacity of the single engine, and increase the speed; it can reduce fuel consumption and save fuel; it can improve the aspect ratio of the ship, increase stability, and make the ship easy to maneuver; it can also increase Load up on weight for extra profit.

Due to the good corrosion resistance, maintenance costs such as oiling can be reduced, and the service life can be extended.

Good processing and forming performance, easy to perform various forms of processing such as cutting, stamping, cold bending, forming and cutting, suitable for streamlined hulls; it can extrude large, wide and thin-walled profiles, reduce the number of welds and make the hull structure Rationalization and lightweighting.

Good welding performance, can be easily welded.

The elastic modulus is small, the ability to absorb impact stress is large, and there is greater safety.

Aluminum scrap is easily recovered and can be recycled.

No low temperature brittleness, most suitable for low temperature equipment.

Since it is non-magnetic, the compass will not be affected; the all-aluminum boat can avoid mine attacks and is suitable for minesweeping boats.

No pests and dry deformation; non-combustible, safe in case of fire.

From the perspective of ship designers, ships made of aluminum alloy can achieve higher speed and longer service life. These advantages of aluminum alloy make it develop rapidly in the application of ships. The shipbuilding industry is aluminum Provides a broad application market.
