At present, die cast zinc alloys are mainly used in the clothing, bathroom, and architectural accessories sectors, and will develop towards the military aviation and automotive electronics sectors in the future
The future of the zinc alloy market:
Equipment upgrade: 1. Increased automation level 2. Increased adaptability to zinc alloy production furnaces
Process upgrade: 1. Reduced the re melting of No. 0 zinc 2. Upgraded traditional processes for zinc alloys
Materials to be developed: 1. Upgrading traditional materials again 2. Developing special grades 3. Developing alternative copper materials.
Zinc alloy is an alloy synthesized by melting zinc into other metals. The main added elements of zinc alloy include aluminum, copper, and magnesium. Zinc alloy is mainly processed by die-casting, and is widely used in building hardware, bathroom accessories, door and window hardware, smart locks, electronics, appliances, leather goods, toys, accessories, automotive parts, etc. The characteristics of zinc alloy include low melting point, high specific gravity, good flowability, and good casting and processing performance. It can be cast into complex shapes and precision parts, making the casting surface smooth. It can also be surface treated, electroplated, sprayed, painted, melted, and die cast without absorbing iron, corroding the mold, or sticking to the mold. It has good mechanical properties and wear resistance at room temperature. The melting point begins to melt at 385 degrees Celsius, making it easy to die cast.
