Characteristic

Lithium is the world's lightest metal element.Aluminum-lithium alloys are formed when lithium is added to metallic aluminum as an alloying element. With the addition of lithium, the specific gravity of the alloy can be reduced and the stiffness increased, while still maintaining high strength, good corrosion and fatigue resistance and suitable ductility.

Application

Aluminum lithium alloy is mainly developed for reducing the weight of aircraft and aerospace equipment, so it is mainly used in the field of aerospace, ordnance and nuclear reactor materials, tank penetrator, torpedoes and other weapon structures, in addition to automobiles, robots and other fields are also fully used.
