The composition of aluminum bronze

Aluminum bronze is a type of copper alloy. Its main components are copper, aluminum, and a small amount of elements such as nickel. The aluminum content in aluminum bronze usually ranges from 5% to 11%, and the nickel content is generally no more than 1%. In addition, aluminum bronze may also contain elements such as manganese, iron, and zinc, but the content of these elements is very low.

The properties of aluminum bronze

Aluminum bronze is a type of copper alloy with high strength and hardness, featuring excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. It performs particularly well in harsh working environments such as high temperatures and high pressures. The density of aluminum bronze is approximately 7.8g/cm³, and its melting point is around 1015. It also has a relatively low coefficient of linear expansion.

Classification of aluminum bronze

• 1. High-strength aluminum bronze

High-strength aluminum bronze refers to aluminum bronze with an aluminum content of more than 5%. It has excellent wear resistance, high strength, high hardness and corrosion resistance, and is suitable for manufacturing high-load mechanical parts, ship and aircraft components, etc.

• 2. Corrosion-resistant aluminum bronze

Corrosion-resistant aluminum bronze is an aluminum bronze alloy with excellent corrosion resistance. It usually contains elements such as iron, nickel, and manganese, and is used to manufacture components that can withstand corrosion while requiring high strength and hardness.

• 3. Forging with aluminum bronze

Forging-grade aluminum bronze possesses excellent forgeability and high strength. It is commonly used in the manufacture of wheel hubs, engine components, aerospace equipment, and ship fittings, among others.

The application of aluminum bronze

Due to its excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, aluminum bronze is widely used in shipbuilding, marine engineering, chemical equipment, automotive manufacturing, aerospace, and other fields. The superior performance of aluminum bronze also makes it an important material for manufacturing high-end watches, instruments, and precision machinery.
