Which zinc alloy material is good for die casting?

In every industry, there are a lot of zinc alloy die casting product, and these die-castings are made of a variety of metal alloy materials. Zinc alloy is an alloy composed of zinc and other elements. Alloying elements that are often added include aluminum, copper, magnesium, cadmium, lead, titanium and etc..

Does zinc alloy material affect the quality of zinc alloy die casting parts? Of course the answer is yes. In the die casting industry, due to the excellent thermal conductivity, good vibration damping property and good electromagnetic shielding performance of zinc alloy, the zinc alloy diecast parts are widely used in the electronic industry, electronic cigarette industry, driving recorder industry, communication industry, home appliance industry and etc..

It needs three following requirements in order to die cast high quality zinc diecast parts.

1. The zinc alloy material must have high purity, and low impurity content.

High-class zinc ingot such as #0 zinc ingot is based on high purity zinc raw material.  

2. Zinc alloy material requires low melting point.

Good zinc alloy melting point is controlled between 380 to 390 degrees centigrade, which can be controlled by the crucible under 420 degrees Celsius.

3. Less zinc slag. 

When melting, it produces less zinc slag.

To sum up, it is necessary to have the above mentioned three elements for the casting of high quality zinc alloy die casting parts. The raw material must have high purity, low melting point and low zinc slag, which can be called good zinc alloy material.
