Problems solved by technology

High-strength aluminum-zinc-magnesium-scandium alloys can be welded with aluminum-magnesium welding wires such as ER5356, ER5556, and 5B06, and aluminum-magnesium-scandium welding wires. Although joints of a certain quality can be obtained by welding such welding wires, the crack resistance, stress corrosion resistance, especially joints In terms of comprehensive mechanical properties, the strength advantages of high-strength aluminum-zinc-magnesium-scandium alloys cannot be exerted
[0004] Due to the high comprehensive performance of high-strength aluminum-zinc-magnesium-scandium alloys, the requirements for welding quality are also increased simultaneously, especially for the mechanical properties of joints. Performance advantages, unable to provide good welding matching for the alloy, affecting the engineering application of the alloy, so the development of high-performance matching welding wire is very urgent
