Zinc ingot refers to pure zinc, but most of the time the purity of less than 100%, generally in more than 95% are considered zinc ingot. Zinc ingot in automobile industry, coating industry, machinery industry can be a large number of applications.
What are the specific uses of zinc ingot? This article will introduce the uses of zinc ingot:
1) Zinc ingots can be used in automobile manufacturing and machinery industry. Although the strength and hardness of zinc itself is not high, but after adding aluminum, copper and other alloying elements, the formed zinc-Cu titanium alloy has high creep resistance, and the hardness has reached a great increase. Therefore, zinc-Cu Ti alloy has been widely used in hardware production.
2) Zinc ingots can be used as batteries. The working principle is that zinc can interact with NH4CI to release positive H+ ions. The shell of the battery is made of zinc alloy, which is not only the container of battery electrolyte, but also the anode which participates in the battery reaction to form the battery.
3) Zinc ingots can be used to make die castings. It is mainly die-cast and also exists in the form of zinc alloy. It has excellent medium pressure performance, can be deep drawn, and has self-lubricity. It can be welded by brazing, resistance welding or arc welding (in helium gas), and the surface can be electroplated and painted.
4) Zinc ingots can be used as coatings for other metal products. Zinc has good atmospheric corrosion resistance. It can be used by hot plating or cold plating, electroplating, acting on the surface coating of steel and steel structural parts (such as galvanized sheet), and hot galvanized steel grid plate
