The First Roll of Aluminum-silicon Steel Coil was Successfully Rolled off the Aluminum-silicon Coating Production Line of Zhanjiang Iron and Steel (Baosteel Co., Ltd.)

On September 20, the new aluminum-silicon coating production line of Zhanjiang Iron and Steel (Baosteel Co., Ltd.) was officially put into production, and the first roll of qualified products was successfully rolled off the production line. It marks that Zhanjiang Iron and Steel has made a breakthrough in the research, development, and manufacturing of full-strength series aluminum-silicon coating materials with independent intellectual property rights, and has entered a new stage of mass and stable production of high-performance aluminum-silicon coating materials.

Zhanjiang Iron and Steel has always been committed to driving scientific and technological innovation, laying a green foundation for high-quality development through the research and development and application of new materials and new technologies, continuously releasing green competitiveness, and promoting the lightweight development of automobiles.

Zhanjiang Iron and Steel's aluminum-silicon coating materials are mainly used in automobile safety structures such as automobile longitudinal beams, bumpers, column reinforcement plates, floor mid-channels, and roof reinforcement beams. Aluminum-silicon coating materials are a member of the Baosteel Jipa Steel® family. Its outstanding mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, and welding performance can make vehicles safer, more economical, and more environmentally friendly. As a million-ton ultra-high-strength steel production base, Zhanjiang Iron and Steel launched the aluminum-silicon coating material technology transformation project at the beginning of this year to meet the diversified needs of the automotive industry for ultra-high-strength steel products, relying on Baosteel's independent innovation advantages and technological accumulation. After 4 months of construction, the project products were successfully put into production. Zhanjiang Iron and Steel will inject new impetus into the automotive industry by producing higher-performance aluminum-silicon coating materials.
