The 5000 series aluminum alloys are primarily composed of aluminum and magnesium, with magnesium content ranging from 3% to 5%. This series includes popular grades such as 5052, 5005, 5083, and 5A05. Known as aluminum-magnesium alloys, they are among the most widely used in the aluminum industry due to their excellent combination of properties. These alloys offer low density, high tensile strength, and good elongation, making them ideal for applications where weight savings and structural integrity are important.
In comparison to other aluminum series, 5000 series aluminum plates are lighter for the same area, which is why they are frequently used in aerospace applications, such as aircraft fuel tanks. They are also commonly found in general industrial settings. The manufacturing process typically involves continuous casting and rolling, classifying them as hot-rolled aluminum sheets, which allows for deep processing and surface treatments like anodizing. In China, the 5000 series is considered one of the most mature and reliable aluminum plate families.
5005 aluminum sheet is similar to 3003 alloy but offers better corrosion resistance and moderate strength. It is often used in electrical conductors, cookware, instrument panels, and architectural trim. Its anodized finish is brighter than that of 3003 and blends well with the color tone of 6063 alloys.
5052 aluminum sheet is known for its excellent formability, corrosion resistance, and fatigue strength. It is commonly used in the production of aircraft fuel tanks, oil pipes, and components for transportation vehicles and ships. It's also used for instruments, streetlight brackets, rivets, and hardware products. Meanwhile, 5056 aluminum plate is specifically used in applications involving magnesium alloys and cable sheaths, such as rivets, zippers, and nails. It is particularly useful in agricultural equipment where high corrosion resistance is required.
5083 aluminum sheet is designed for environments that demand high corrosion resistance, good weldability, and medium strength. It is frequently used in shipbuilding, automotive, and aerospace industries for welding parts. Other common applications include pressure vessels, refrigeration units, TV towers, drilling equipment, transportation systems, missile components, armor plating, and more.
Lastly, 5A05 aluminum plate is mainly used in welded structures, such as aircraft skins and frames, where strength and durability are crucial. Overall, the 5000 series stands out for its versatility, performance, and wide range of applications across various industries.
CB-2450 Silicone Leveling Agent
CB-2450 leveling and slipping agent is polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane copolymer , a representative silicone slipping agent (organic silicone Leveling Agent), Wear-resistant and leveling additive. It has high compatibility and can be used in UV radiation curing systems, solvent-based systems and water-based systems. The most prominent feature of this product is to reduce the friction coefficient and increase the smoothness of the coating film surface (wetting and leveling agent), which is very helpful in improving scratch resistance and anti-adhesion(Additives To Improve Smoothness). In addition, this product has an express leveling effect, which can improve fluidity and gloss without affecting recoating performance. Suitable for pigmented systems, matte oils, varnishes.
