Characteristics of aluminum profiles

Feb 01, 2023

1.Corrosion resistance
The density of aluminum profile is only 2.7g/cm3, which is about 1/3 of the density of steel, copper or brass (7.83g/cm3, 8.93g/cm3 respectively). Under most environmental conditions, including air, water (or salt water), petrochemical and many chemical systems, aluminum can show excellent corrosion resistance. Jiangxi Huayu Aluminum Co., Ltd
2.Thermal conductivity
The thermal conductivity of aluminum alloy is about 50-60% of that of copper, which is very beneficial to the manufacture of heat exchangers, evaporators, heating appliances, cooking utensils, as well as the cylinder heads and radiators of automobiles.
3.Nonferromagnetism
Aluminum profiles are non-ferromagnetic, which is an important feature for the electrical and electronic industries. Aluminum profiles cannot be self-ignited, which is important for applications involving handling or contacting flammable and explosive materials.
4.Machinability
The machinability of aluminum profiles is excellent. In various deformed aluminum alloys and cast aluminum alloys, as well as in various states after the production of these alloys, the machining characteristics vary considerably, which requires special machine tools or technologies.
5.Formability
Specific tensile strength, yield strength, ductility and corresponding work hardening rate control the change of allowable deformation.
6.Recyclability
Aluminum is highly recyclable
The characteristics of recycled aluminum are almost the same as that of primary aluminum
