Abstract:
The world production pattern of highperformance aluminum alloy thick plate is introduced. Manufacturers of aluminum alloy thick plate are mainly from developed countries, especially the United State. Highperformance aluminum alloys can be developed mainly through adjusting alloying component, using new alloying element, and adopting new technologies of machining and manufacturing. There is still a long way to go either to develop the potential of aluminum alloys available through strengthening and toughening technology, or to develop new types of high strength aluminum alloy or even ultra high strength aluminum alloy. Therefore, much basic research work still needs to be done. Highperformance aluminum alloy thick plate is mainly applied in fields like aviation industry, shipping industry and transportation. In China, great progress has been made in the realm of highperformance aluminum alloy thick plate, but there is still a lot of work to be done to catch up with advanced countries.
