What are the different types of zinc alloys?

Zinc alloys different types mainly include Zn-Mg alloy, Zn-Cu alloy, Zn-Ni alloy, Zn-Al alloy and so on.

Applications and Uses of Zinc Alloys

There are many types of zinc alloys, which can be divided into many types according to different alloy elements and uses. The following are some common types of zinc alloys:

1. Zinc alloys different types: Zn-Mg alloy

This alloy often uses in applications that require higher strength and corrosion resistance. For example, 7075 alloy is an alloy containing 5.6% zinc, 2.5% magnesium, 1.6% copper and 0.25% chromium, which is widely used in the aerospace field.

2. Zinc alloys different types: Zn-Cu alloy

This alloy has good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. And is often uses in the electronics industry and automobile manufacturing. For example, some studies mentioned Zn-Cu alloys containing different proportions of copper and zinc.

3. Zn-Ni alloy

It often uses in electroplating processes to improve the corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of the coating. For example, Zn-Ni alloy coatings are widely used for anti-corrosion treatment of steel surfaces.

4. Zn-Al alloy

This alloy widely uses in the machining industry due to its low density and good mechanical properties. For example, AA7005 and AA7020 are two common aluminum-zinc ternary alloys that excel in welding fatigue performance.

6. Zn-Cu-Al alloy

This alloy combines the advantages of copper and aluminum, has good conductivity and corrosion resistance. And it is suitable for aerospace, vehicle equipment and other fields.

7. Zn-based biodegradable alloy

This alloy mainly uses in medical devices, such as stent materials. Studies have shown that zinc-based alloys have good biocompatibility and strength. Moreover, it has a potential choice for degradable stent materials.

Above all, zinc alloys widely use in industry and medical fields due to their diverse composition and excellent properties. Different types of zinc alloys show their unique performance advantages according to their specific composition and use.
