Problems solved by technology

[0003] Although the traditional 6000 series aluminum alloy has excellent extrusion processing performance and oxidation coloring effect, its strength is generally low
The 7000 series aluminum alloy is a high-strength aluminum alloy that can be strengthened by heat treatment, but there are generally problems such as extrusion processing difficulties, complex processing procedures, high cost (such as off-line solid solution), and high quenching sensitivity. When used in electronic product casings, there are still problems. The problem of poor oxidation coloring effect, such as graying and darkening of the oxide film, and defects such as stripes, black lines, mottled spots, and color difference on the surface after electrolytic coloring, cannot meet consumers' requirements for the appearance and decoration of electronic products
Therefore, the existing 7000 series aluminum alloys and their preparation methods still need to be improved and developed.
