5000 Series Automotive Aluminum Alloys
Description:
Automibles are becoming heavier in order to satisfy the requirements of safety and comfort, and the demand for higher fuel efficiency and lower environmental impact is also rising. That has directly influenced the tread toward the weight reduction of automibles and increase in he applications of aluminum alloys in automibles body panels. In the year of 2011, the demand for automible aluminum panels approached to the amount 250kt, and are still rising sharply.
