School-enterprise cooperation to develop new rare earth aluminum alloy technology

Recently, in order to make full use of the advantages of scientific research resources in universities and to better achieve product innovation and upgrading, Aba Aluminum Plant and Sichuan University’s School of Materials Science and Engineering signed a research cooperation agreement. The two parties will focus on the major needs of the country and the industry and plan to develop. New types of rare earth-aluminum alloys and related basic applications are being developed.

It is understood that after the breakthrough in the key technologies for the industrialization of high-strength, high-conductivity rare-earth (rare-earth) aluminum alloys in this project, it will produce a number of landmark results that can reflect the social benefits-ecological benefits-economic benefits. Aba Aluminum Plant will realize a complete industrial chain from structural materials to functional materials, greatly enhance the core competitiveness of the company's market, and develop a new type of industry development path with high technological content, low resource consumption, and low environmental pollution, and promote the leapfrogging of enterprises. development of.
