Interpretation of aluminum alloy fuel tank materials in the European market

Aluminum alloy fuel tank materials are fuel tanks made of aluminum alloy sheets. The aluminum alloy fuel tank process is produced in the same way as the basic layout of iron, and on the basis of it, the fuel tank mechanism is further optimized to make the overall structure more stable, simpler to manufacture and easy to produce.

The aluminum alloy fuel tank is generally made of 5 series aluminum alloy (5005 aluminum sheet, 5754 aluminum sheet). The strength of the 5 series alloy is higher than that of the 1 series and 3 series aluminum alloy. It is a medium and high strength alloy with high strength, high formability and high corrosion resistance. High surface treatment and good welding performance. Therefore, it is widely used in automobile fuel tanks. Henan Mingtai Aluminum Industry Co., Ltd. is the leader in the domestic aluminum processing industry. The 5 series alloy has more than ten years of production experience, very mature and stable production technology, coupled with the almost demanding pursuit of product quality, so Mingtai The 5 series aluminum alloy fuel tanks produced have an unshakable market share and reputation in the market.

With the development of various new materials, the rust prevention problem of iron fuel tanks has become a major problem in the quality of fuel tanks. Especially in today’s environmental protection work. The fuel tank made of Aluminum alloy fuel tank materials is far superior to carbon steel and plastic in corrosion resistance, impact resistance, service life and recovery value.

In 1980, Europe produced the first aluminum alloy fuel tank. By 2004, there were 400,000 aluminum fuel tanks produced in Europe, and the number of pillars reached 1100 liters. The fuel tanks of trucks produced by Mercedes-Benz and MAN have been used. 100% use Aluminum alloy fuel tank materials. The advantage is light weight, only 40% of the same volume steel fuel tank, no paint, environmentally friendly production process, long service life, can achieve 10 years of corrosion, more than twice the same structural steel fuel tank, materials can be recycled After the aluminum alloy fuel tank is scrapped, the material recycling rate is above 85%.

Aluminum alloy fuel tanks are not only able to meet the strength direction but also have a great advantage in corrosion resistance compared to iron and other new materials. It has also become a preferred choice for large passenger cars and heavy trucks with high fuel consumption and high fuel quality requirements. Aluminum alloy fuel tanks have occupied more than 80% of heavy trucks, passenger cars and multi-purpose vehicles, and are now occupying the fuel tank market in a booming development, and are also a leading direction in the development of fuel tank fittings.
