Application range of zinc ingots

Zinc ingots are pure zinc, of course, there will be impurities, but as zinc ingots, at least 90% purity. Application of zinc ingots: mainly used in die casting alloy, battery industry, printing and dyeing industry, pharmaceutical industry, rubber industry, chemical industry, etc.

Xingtai aidu metal material sales co., LTD. Introduces the application of zinc ingots:

A, galvanized

Zinc has excellent anti-atmospheric corrosion performance, so it is mainly used in the surface coating of steel and steel structural parts (such as galvanized sheet), widely used in automobile, construction, shipping, light industry and other industries. In recent years western country begins to try to make roofing cover material directly with zinc alloy board, its service life can be as long as 120-140 years, and can recycle reuse, and the service life that makes roofing material with galvanized iron board is 5-10 years commonly.

2. Manufacturing copper alloy materials (such as brass)

Used in automobile manufacturing and machinery industry. Zinc has suitable mechanical properties. The strength and hardness of zinc itself is not high, but after the addition of aluminum, copper and other alloy elements, its strength and hardness are greatly improved, especially the appearance of zinc copper titanium alloy, its comprehensive mechanical properties have approached or reached the level of aluminum alloy, brass, gray cast iron, its creep resistance is also greatly improved. Therefore, zinc-copper-titanium alloy has been widely used in hardware production.

Used for casting zinc alloy

Mainly for die casting, used in automobile, light industry and other industries. Many zinc alloys have good machining performance and the pass rate can reach 60%-80%. Excellent medium pressure performance, deep drawing, self-lubricity, extended die life, can be brazed or resistance welding or arc welding (in helium) welding, surface can be electroplated, painted treatment, cutting performance is good. It has superior superplastic energy under certain conditions.

In addition, zinc has good anti - electromagnetic properties. The conductivity of the zinc is 29% of the standard electrical copper, in the case of radio frequency interference, zinc plate is a very effective shielding material, at the same time because of the zinc is magnetic, suitable materials for instrument parts and instrument shell and coin, in the meantime, zinc itself and collisions with other metals not happen spark, for mine explosion-proof equipment.

4. Zinc oxide, about 11%

Widely used in rubber, paint, enamel, medicine, printing, fiber and other industries.

5. Used for manufacturing dry batteries, in the form of zinc cake and zinc plate, accounting for about 13%.

Zinc has suitable chemical properties. Zinc can interact with NH4CI to give off H+ positive ions. Zinc-manganese dioxide battery is to take advantage of this characteristic of zinc, with zinc alloy as the shell of the battery, which is both the container of the battery electrolyte and the anode formed by the reaction of the battery. Its performance is also widely used in the pharmaceutical industry.
