6000 series aluminum alloy plate in the application of automobile manufacturing
Almost all aluminum materials have been widely used in automobile manufacturing, but the one that is used more is casting aluminum alloy, which is used to produce die-casting and casting, and there is no car that does not use aluminum and aluminum alloy casting parts. The amount of cast aluminum alloy accounts for 65% of the total amount of automotive aluminum, the total amount of semi-finished aluminum is less than 35%, of which more than 70% with the plate, and with the plate China used more than the thickness of ≤ 2mm thin plate, accounting for more than 92%.
Focus on the development of automotive aluminum alloy sheet is: 6016-S, 6016-IH, 6016-IBR, 6A16-S, 6A16-IBR, 5182-RSS, 5754, 6022, atbp., typical 6XXX series aluminum alloy plate elongation A50 ≥ 25%, r value ≥ 0.60, 60d after parking yield strength Rp0.2 ≤ 140N/ mm2, baking hardening yield strength increment ≥ 80N/mm2.
Aluminum alloy plates applied in automobiles can be broadly divided into two categories: passenger car, pickup trucks, vans and other coverings with thin plates, namely ABS, all other cars such as buses, tankers with all kinds of plates, with mostly industrial general plates.

6000 series aluminum alloy sheet metal parts for automobiles
6000 series alloys are the most popular aluminum alloys for automotive sheet metal parts in the current automotive industry. They have the forming performance, high strength performance, kaagnaan pagtutol, edge folding, high surface performance, atbp. Kasabay nito, after painting and baking, the strength performance is also improved.
Replacing the steel plate with aluminum alloy plate in the interior and exterior of the car can reduce the body by 40%~50%, which in turn reduces the net mass of the whole car by about 10%.

ABS is also used to make hoods and trunk lids, and many more.
Properties of typical sheet alloys
6016 alloy is widely used in ABS, but the heat treatment process is complex and pre-aging treatment T4P between solution treatment and baking treatment is required to obtain good performance. Because of the good forming properties before stamping and the rapid increase in strength during the baking process after stamping, which results in high dent resistance, 6016 alloy sheet can take into account both requirements after solution-T4P-painting treatment, but the process parameters have a great impact on the final performance, insufficient solution treatment reduces the precipitation power of T4P and artificial aging during the baking process, and long holding time may lead to Low humidity of pre-aging reduces the performance stability of the plate placement process and the hardening effect of the baking process, and the high temperature affects the forming performance of the stamping process. This shows that the solid solution and T4P process parameters should be optimized in order to obtain the ideal overall performance.
The strength of the plate is mainly affected by the solid solution strengthening, pre-aging and natural aging strengthening: the solid solution treatment solidifies the soluble phase into the α(Al) matrix to produce solid solution strengthening, while the subsequent T4P process, the supersaturated solute atoms will form aging precipitation The size, number and morphology of these phases are dependent on the pre-aging temperature. Sa isang banda, aging reduces the degree of matrix supersaturation and weakens the solid solution strengthening effect. Sa kabilang banda, the pre-aging precipitated phases produce strengthening effect and increase the strength of the plate; the strengthening effect of natural aging increases monotonically with time and stabilizes after reaching time.
Zhang Zedong and other experts' research results show that: 6016 alloy plate in 560 °C / 1min solid solution treatment can obtain good results, continue to extend the holding time is not conducive to performance; comprehensive consideration of 6016 automotive plate performance requirements of the industrial production of oil coating process, determine the 6016 alloy ABS solid solution - pre-aging process: 560 °C / 1min + 80 °C / 6h ("Light alloy processing Technology" 2019, no. 2, pp. 28-32.)
Aplikasyon ng 5000 series aluminum alloy sheet in automobile manufacturing
There are two kinds of 5XXX series alloys in aluminum alloy sheet for automobile: 5754 and 5182-RSS, besides these two alloys, there are also 5022, 5023, 5454, 5154, 5083 and other alloys used.
Mg has the second highest solubility in aluminum after zinc, with an ultimate solubility of 17.4% at 450°C and only 1% at room temperature. In theory Al-Mg alloys should have strong age-hardening effect, but due to the limitation of the tendency of precipitation along the crystal and dispersion of β-phase, this effect cannot be utilized, and they are mostly used in annealed O state or cold work-hardened state H.
The precipitation process of supersaturated solid solution α' of Al-Mg alloy.
α' → GP zone → β' → β(Al8Mg5)
Mg atomic diameter (0.320nm) is much larger than that of Al (0.286nm), although the GP zone can be formed within a few seconds after quenching, but the size is small (1.0nm~1.5nm), surrounded by a dense vacancy cloud, and almost no co-grid strain occurs with the parent phase, so the Mg content ≤ (5%~7%) of the alloy has no obvious age-hardening effect. After a few years, the GP zone can grow to 10 nm, and although there is a large strengthening effect, there is a strong fracture characteristic along the crystal, and the plasticity is sharply reduced to only about 1.5%, which has no practical value.
To Al-Mg alloy plus Mn or Cr, mainly to improve corrosion resistance and weldability, but the solid solution that part of the strengthening effect. ti and V are grain refinement agent, also has the effect of improving the strength and weldability. be can prevent the melt casting and welding oxidation tendency, especially the high magnesium alloy is particularly needed. Trace Sb or Bi mainly to prevent the high Mg alloy "sodium brittle" phenomenon. cu, Zn, Paa, Si is impurities, should be strictly limited, but Si can improve the weldability, so 5A03 alloy contains 0.50% Si ~ 0.80% Si.
Because Al-Mg alloy has only slight age-hardening effect and strong tendency to precipitate along the crystal, it can only work in annealed (300℃~380℃) or cold work-hardened condition, but their corrosion resistance can only be shown if the β-phase is uniformly distributed along the grain boundary within the grain, and the distribution pattern is also strongly influenced by the Mg content. The results of a series of studies show that the stability of alloys with Mg content ≤ 3%, either in the annealed or cold work-hardened state, and heated for a long time at room temperature or sensitization treatment temperature (67°C~177°C), do not form along the crystalline β-phase network film and are not sensitive to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and spalling corrosion, but after Mg content > 3.5%, especially after cold work-hardening, with the increase of Mg content (≥ 5% Mg), the susceptibility to SCC also increases strongly, and even after long storage at room temperature (20a~30a), a continuous β-phase mesh film can be formed along the grain boundaries. Because the high Mg content (>6%~7%) alloy even in 315℃~330℃ fully annealed, α solid solution can not be decomposed, still in supersaturated state, so the organization is very unstable.
To solve the high magnesium alloy organization performance stability of two ways: one is annealed for large cold deformation (ε = 30% ~ 50%), increase the dislocation density or β-phase nucleation point, and in 200 ℃ above the precipitation treatment, promote the decomposition of solid solution and β-phase uniform decomposition; another way is to reduce the magnesium content ≤ 3%, and add the appropriate amount can improve the strength and recrystallization temperature of Mn and Cr, can also avoid β-phase along the crystal precipitation, get the strength equivalent to the high magnesium content, Estados Unidos 5454 haluang haluang dulugad (2.7% Mg, 0.7% Mn, 0.12% Cr) can get the same strength as Al-4Mg alloy without SCC and EFC sensitivity, but this method can not make the strength of Al-Mg alloy has greatly improved.

It is desirable to phase out diesel vehicles or increase the rate of aluminization
A study published in the United States on February 26 points out that, according to a study by the U.S. NGO International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) and two universities, 11 percent of the 3.4 million premature deaths each year due to PM2.5 and ground-level ozone are related to the global transportation industry, and the medical burden caused by traffic pollution (often associated with heart and lung disease, stroke and diabetes) reached $1 trillion dollars.
In the United States 22,000 people died from traffic pollution, 43% of which were diesel-related; 74,000 people died prematurely from vehicle exhaust in India, 13,000 in Germany, 7,800 in Italy and 6,400 in France. Gayunpaman, the situation is worse in Germany, bilang 17 out of every 100,000 inhabitants in the country die prematurely due to traffic pollution, a rate three times the global average.
This shows that the impact of vehicle emissions on human health must not be ignored, highlighting the need to actively comply with and enforce class emission standards, and the urgency of increasing the amount of aluminum used to reduce its own mass and expand new energy vehicles.
ABS production lines in China
By 2018, there were seven ABS (Auto-Body-Sheet) lines completed and under construction in China, including six in operation with a production capacity of 523 kt/a and one under construction with a production capacity of 100 kt/a (see Table 2).ABS production is key and equipped in a continuous production line consisting of more than 20 processes such as air cushion furnace treatment with its subsequent pure stretch straightening, pre-aging, and surface treatment. The single-layer arrangement can exceed 600m in length, and the double-layer arrangement is more than 300m.
China's first ABS production line - Nobelis (Tsina) Aluminum Products Co., Ltd. is located in Changzhou National High-Tech Development Zone, Jiangsu Province, covering an area of 4,320km2, with an investment of USD 100 million, which was put into operation on October 21, 2014. on May 22, 2018 the company announced another investment of USD 180 million for a new an air cushion continuous production line to increase ABS production capacity by 100kt/a, which will be put into operation in 2020.
