A high-performance microalloying optimizer for aluminum alloys. This product is a new and efficient additive for improving the comprehensive properties of aluminum alloys. Ytterbium (Yb), as an important rare earth element, can significantly refine the alloy structure, inhibit recrystallization, and optimize the distribution of strengthening phases through the formation of thermally stable nanoscale dispersed phases. This simultaneously enhances the strength, hardness, and corrosion resistance of aluminum alloys.
Application Fields
1.Lightweighting in Transportation (e.g., body structural parts, wheels, new energy vehicle battery pack structural parts).
2.Electronics and Heat Dissipation Systems (e.g., high-power heat sink substrates, structural parts for 3C products).
3.Precision Manufacturing and Industrial Equipment (e.g., industrial robot joint arms, high-end instrument brackets).
4.General Aviation and Drones (e.g., fuselage frames, landing gear).
