The Detailed Introduction of 6063 Aluminum Plate

6063 aluminum plate is widely used in the framework of building aluminum doors, windows, and curtain walls. In order to ensure that doors, windows, and curtain walls have high wind pressure resistance, assembly performance, corrosion resistance, and decorative performance, the comprehensive performance requirements for aluminum plate profiles are far higher than industrial profile standards.

Introduce

6063 is a representative extrusion alloy with lower strength than 6061, good extrusion properties, and can be used for complex cross-sectional shapes. It has excellent corrosion resistance and surface treatment properties.

A low alloyed Al Mg Si high plasticity alloy. Has many valuable features:

1. Heat treatment strengthening, high impact toughness, and insensitivity to defects.

2. It has good thermoplastic properties and can be rapidly extruded into various profiles with complex structures, thin-walled and hollow sections, or forged into forgings with complex structures. It has a wide quenching temperature range and low quenching sensitivity. After extrusion and forging demolding, as long as the temperature is higher than the quenching temperature. It can be quenched by spraying water or penetrating water. Thin walled parts (6 less than 3mm) can also be air quenched.

3. Excellent welding performance and corrosion resistance, with no tendency towards stress corrosion cracking. In heat treatable reinforced aluminum plates, Al Mg Si alloy is 6063 alloy that has not experienced stress corrosion cracking. 4. The surface after processing is very smooth and easy to anodize and stain. Its disadvantage is that if it is left at room temperature for a period of time after quenching and aged, it will have an adverse effect on strength (parking effect).

Application scope

Different values of chemical composition will result in different material characteristics. When the range of chemical composition is large, its performance differences will fluctuate within a large range, making the comprehensive performance of the profile uncontrollable. Therefore, optimizing the chemical composition of 6063 aluminum sheet has become the most important step in producing high-quality aluminum sheet building profiles. The role of alloying elements and their impact on performance 6063 aluminum plate is a heat treatable strengthening alloy with moderate strength in the AL Mg Si system. Mg and Si are the main alloying elements, and the main task of optimizing chemical composition is to determine the percentage content of Mg and Si.
