Alloy element additives are important materials required for alloy manufacturing and have huge market development potential.

Alloy refers to a solid product with metallic properties obtained by mixing, melting, cooling and solidifying two or more metals or non-metals. The addition of alloy elements other than the base metal is a key link in alloy manufacturing. There are currently three main options for adding alloy elements, namely the direct addition method (suitable for low melting point alloy elements) and the intermediate alloy addition method (suitable for refractory alloy elements). ), alloying element additive addition method (applicable to high melting point alloying elements). The element addition schemes currently used in the aluminum alloy manufacturing process are the master alloy addition method and the alloy element additive addition method.

Alloying element additives are the key materials for the alloying element additive addition method. They refer to making high-melting point alloying elements (such as copper, manganese, titanium, nickel, iron, etc.) into micron-level metal powder through physical and chemical methods, with flux, surface Metal additive products prepared by activating agents through bonding, pressing, sintering and other processes are one of the new metal functional materials. Currently, common alloying element additive products include copper agent, chromium agent, silicon agent, manganese agent, titanium agent, iron agent, iron-silicon composite element additives, etc.

The downstream products of alloy element additives are mainly aluminum alloys and steel. Commonly used alloying element additives in aluminum alloy manufacturing include manganese agents, titanium agents, silicon agents, iron agents, chromium agents, etc.; commonly used alloying element additives in steel manufacturing include ferromanganese composite element additives, ferrochromium composite element additives, ferrosilicon composite Element additives, silicon-manganese composite element additives, etc.

According to the “2023-2028 Alloy Element Additive Industry Market In-depth Research and Investment Prospect Forecast Analysis Report” released by the Industrial Research Center, Aluminum alloy and steel are two common alloy materials on the market, which are widely used in automobiles, electronics, home appliances, aerospace, rail transportation, national defense and military industries and other fields. In recent years, driven by the steady growth of domestic aluminum alloy and steel production and sales, the demand for alloy element additives has continued to increase, and the industry has shown good development prospects.

Alloy element additives belong to a sub-sector of the alloy manufacturing industry. At present, domestic companies in this field mainly include international companies such as Spain’s Bostelan, American Amachi Aluminum, and Germany’s Hershey Metallurgy, as well as Chongqing Runji Far East New Materials, Harbin East Local enterprises such as Shengjin Material Technology Group, Jiangsu Huaqi Aluminum Technology, Jiangxi Jintai Special Materials, Sichuan Lander High-tech, Xuzhou Minghui Aluminum, etc. Since the industry is relatively segmented, the number of domestic companies that specialize in the alloy element additive market is still relatively small, and the market competition is weak.

Industry analysts said that alloy element additives are one of the important materials required for the alloy manufacturing process. At present, my country Many companies have entered the alloy element additive market, and after recent years of development, many leading companies have emerged in this field, such as Dongsheng Group, Jiangsu Jintai, Chongqing Runji, etc. Harbin Dongsheng Group is currently one of the leading companies in the domestic alloy element additive market. The company currently has about 30 kinds of aluminum alloy dressing products in three series with independent intellectual property rights: flux metal additives, aluminum metal additives, and instant silicon. Sold in 51 countries and regions. In the future, against the background of the accelerated growth of leading local companies, the development speed of my country’s alloy element additive market will continue to accelerate.
