AD1 is technical aluminum, hardened only by pressure, with high anti-corrosion properties and high ductility, but its strength is low. A huge number of semi-finished products are produced from technical aluminum of this brand. It deforms well, is difficult to cut and lends itself well to all types of welding. The purity of technical aluminum guarantees its high anti-corrosion properties, due to which it is often used as a cladding material for high-strength aluminum and duralumin alloys that are less resistant to corrosion.
Aluminum sheets AD1M
AD1M aluminum sheet is produced and supplied in rolls or in the form of sheets cut to a certain size.
Sheets are produced by rolling AD1M aluminum. The strength and physicochemical characteristics of AD1M aluminum sheets are determined by the content of impurities in the AD1M source material.
The chemical composition of aluminum sheets meets the requirements of GOST 4784-74, and their dimensions comply with GOST 21631-76.
According to these regulatory documents, AD1M aluminum sheets consist of 95.5 - 99.7% aluminum, and the admixtures of some non-ferrous metals and silicon amount to 0.3 - 0.5%.

Application of AD1M aluminum sheet
A variety of products used in everyday life and industry are made from AD1M alloy. For the electrical and instrument-making industries, the following are manufactured from AD1M aluminum sheets:
Electrical clamps, terminals, contact devices and busbars for DC and AC power circuits.
These products have good electrical conductivity, so when electric current passes through them, they do not heat up to high temperatures.
Cooling radiators for power semiconductor devices: transistors, thyristors, diodes. Good thermal conductivity of AD1M ensures effective heat removal from semiconductor elements and prevents them from overheating;
Housings and fastening clamps for electrolytic capacitors used to smooth out rectified current ripples in power supplies for radio-electronic devices.
Panels, panel covers and control cabinets for various electrical installations, which must be operated in difficult climatic conditions, withstand the aggressive influence of the atmosphere and have minimal weight.
Due to its low weight, ductility, resistance to corrosion and aggressive environments, AD1M aluminum sheets are widely used for the production of various structures, heat-reflecting screens and individual parts in aerospace engineering, river and marine fleets, electric transport and energy.
In the petrochemical industry, AD1M aluminum sheets are used for the production of various containers, tanks, ventilation ducts and pipelines for transporting gaseous and liquid products.
For the needs of the food industry, durable aluminum cookware is made from AD1M aluminum sheets by stamping. Cookware made from AD1M aluminum sheet does not emit harmful substances when heated, is durable and low in cost.
It is also used to make a variety of containers for packaging and transporting meat and dairy products, pipelines for transporting milk, vegetable oil and wine and vodka products of food enterprises.
Aluminum sheets are widely used in the construction and furniture industries to create decorative partitions, roofing, display cases, shelves, and lightweight and weather-resistant building cladding.
Sieve grids are made from perforated aluminum sheets for sifting bulk materials of various fractions, including grain.
They are widely used for the production of equipment for public catering and trade enterprises, medical and pharmaceutical equipment.

In the field of cable and conductor materials, the combination of low density and weight with high electrical conductivity allows aluminum to compete with copper. The cold-worked AD1N sheet conducts electricity worse than grades of annealed alloys, but is used in electrical engineering.
Classification and designations of AD1M aluminum sheet
Sheet aluminum, depending on its properties and manufacturing methods in accordance with the requirements of GOST 21631-76, is divided according to the following characteristics:
1) According to the condition of the material.
The letters AD in the marking mean that AD1M aluminum sheets are made of easily deformable aluminum. The letter M indicates that it is an annealed, soft material.
If the quality and accuracy of the annealed sheets corresponds to regulatory documents, then additional heat treatment may not be necessary. In this case, when marking, the letter M is enclosed in brackets - (M). The absence of the letter M indicates that no heat treatment was carried out.
The technological operation of cold hardening is carried out directly during the production of aluminum sheets. Its essence lies in increasing the hardness of sheet aluminum by treating its surface with increased pressure. Hardening is carried out during cold rolling or in shot blasting chambers. The plasticity of the material after this operation is slightly reduced.
Semi-hardening is a similar process, but with less mechanical impact, and therefore the hardness is lower, but the ductility is higher.
Hardening is designated by the letter N, semi-hardening is designated by H2, and the aluminum sheet is marked as AD1N or AD1N2.
2) Depending on the manufacturing method: clad and unclad.
Plating means covering sheets with an additional thin layer of chemically pure aluminum, which increases anti-corrosion properties. Clad aluminum sheets have the letters B, A or U in their designation, which corresponds to technological, normal or thickened cladding, respectively.
3) To designate aluminum sheets with a high quality of finishing, the letter B is used, with a high quality finish, the letter P is used, with normal finishing, there is no letter marking.

Production of rolled aluminum sheet AD1M
The production of aluminum and rolled products from it has several stages. First, alumina is obtained - the feedstock for electrolysis plants. Alumina is produced by mixing crushed bauxite aluminum ore heated with hot steam and alkali.
From this mixture, after chemical reactions occur, aluminum oxide Al2O3, called alumina, is formed in an alkaline solution. It is then thoroughly mixed and fed into electrolysis baths. In baths, in the melt of cryolite NaAlF4, at a temperature of 950°C under the influence of a current of several hundred amperes, the process of electrolysis occurs to produce molten aluminum.
The resulting melt is treated with fluxes, refined and filtered.
After these technological operations, aluminum contains no more than 1% impurities, and is called technical. Its designation begins with the letter A. After passing through a degassing installation, the metal is poured into special molds, from which, after solidification, aluminum ingots are extracted, intended for further use.
In the second option, to produce hot-rolled aluminum sheets, liquid aluminum is fed through an inclined chute to a continuous casting line.
Depending on the existing technological scheme and equipment at the enterprise, the further process of rolling AD1M aluminum sheet can occur in two ways:
1) First, by hot rolling, strips of aluminum sheet AD1M with a thickness of 4–12 mm are produced, and then the resulting strip is compressed to smaller thicknesses in the stands of a cold rolling mill.
2) Rolling of assortments of any thickness only in the cold way;
In the first method, molten aluminum passes through a distribution nozzle, from which the liquid metal enters the hot rolling cage and enters the space between the rotating mold rollers. As a result of contact with the rollers, it cools and crystallizes. The metal strip obtained at the exit of the stand is fed by pulling rollers to a winding device, where it is wound into rolls of a certain length. In this way, you can obtain a strip with a thickness of 4-12 mm and a width of 1000 to 1600 mm.
The resulting coils serve as the starting material for producing thinner sheets in cold rolling mills. Before rolling, rotating shears cut the rolls into strips of a certain width and length.
Next, the strips enter a single or multi-stand cold rolling mill, where the final stages of producing AD1M aluminum sheets are carried out. Then annealing is carried out, if necessary, the rolls are cut to the required size and transferred to packaging. When producing hard cold-worked aluminum sheets, no annealing operation is performed. To eliminate the influence of the heating of the rolls on the dimensions of the aluminum sheet, rolling is carried out using a cooling lubricant.
Aluminum sheets with a thickness of 0.3 - 10.5 mm are produced from deformable alloy AD1M in cold rolling mills. The elongation factor during cold rolling varies from 40 to 100.
The production of AD1M aluminum sheets using the cold method requires increased pressing forces and the installation of higher-power rolling stand drive motors. The AD1M aluminum sheet obtained by cold and hot rolling meets all the requirements for this grade.
The production of aluminum itself, given the energy intensity of electrolysis, requires a powerful energy source. Therefore, aluminum smelters are usually located near thermal power plants that supply them with electricity and steam.
The AD grade of aluminum sheets is very common in the metalworking industry; in popularity it is second only to black rolled sheet materials.
Aluminum sheets must meet the technical requirements of GOST 21631-76 in terms of chemical composition, manufacturing accuracy, surface cleanliness, mechanical and physical properties. Their surface should not have cracks, cavities, or heterogeneous inclusions. The plating should not have visible scratches or other damage, the edges should be cut at right angles and not have sharp burrs or torn edges.
At AD1M aluminum sheet manufacturing enterprises, strict quality control of manufactured products is observed: samples are taken from each manufactured batch to control the dimensions, flatness of surfaces and chemical composition.
Marking is applied by stamping aluminum sheets or with permanent paint. Special requirements for packaging - it must not be susceptible to corrosion and reliably protect the product from direct exposure to the atmosphere.
Production and composition of AD1N sheets
Aluminum sheet most often arrives to the consumer in a cold-worked state, that is, it has been hardened by cold plastic deformation by rolling. In industry, cold hardening or controlled hardening is carried out in automated devices - shot blasting units. To perform strengthening, the workpiece is exposed to a flow of balls made of cast iron, steel or ceramics with a diameter of 0.4 to 2 mm, which move in the chamber at a speed of up to 70 m/sec.
The operating mode of the installation is programmed and controlled using electronic devices: the feed speed and the amount of shot are regulated. Equipment for cold hardening can be general or special purpose. Special installations are designed for processing bolts, springs, and pipes.
As a result of cold plastic deformation under the influence of load, stress arises in the internal structure of the alloy, the crystal lattice changes, and the spatial arrangement of the crystals is ordered. The crystal axes, which have maximum strength, are oriented parallel to the direction of deformation, and the metal will remain in this state even after processing is stopped. To re-deform the workpiece, you will have to apply even more force.
After such treatment, strength increases, but impact strength and ductility decreases. Cold hardening is especially relevant when it is necessary to increase the resistance to surface cracking and prevent the manifestation of metal hardening processes. If necessary, cold hardening can be removed by heat treatment of products made from AD1N alloy.
Impurities in AD1M alloy sheets, chemical composition, protective coatings
The AD1M material from which aluminum sheets are rolled contains a very high aluminum content - no less than 95.5%.
Along with aluminum, it contains impurities of certain elements in strictly regulated quantities. For example, iron and silicon, which give the metal hardness and strength, should not contain more than 0.3%. An increase in the percentage of these elements leads to a decrease in ductility below normal.
In addition to these elements, AD1M contains zinc with a percentage of up to 0.1%, the permissible content of manganese is 0.05%, and copper and magnesium are 0.03% each.
The titanium content, which increases strength and resistance to corrosion, is allowed no more than 0.15%, other impurities of natural origin - up to 0.03% in total.
To give AD1M products additional strength and corrosion resistance, the application of a protective oxide film to them is widely used. This process is called anodizing. The film is applied by electrochemical electrolysis in solutions of various acids. Film thickness can reach 250 microns, which guarantees high mechanical strength of the coating.
In addition, anodizing is widely used for decorative purposes - the applied films can have a variety of colors, depending on the composition of the electrolyte.
Recently, instead of anodizing, film deposition using plasma installations has been used. Such coatings have much higher hardness and many beautiful shades.

AD1N for the food industry
Cooking requires high temperature, a humid environment - these qualities, as well as hypoallergenicity, the ability to retain nutrients and vitamins without reacting with the ingredients of dishes, are demonstrated by food-grade aluminum.
According to current standards, the following are produced from sheet or rolled AD: pots, stewpans, frying pans, cutlery - how can one not recall Napoleon, at whose dinner parties aluminum cutlery was served to especially important guests. Nowadays, the most famous jewelers work with aluminum, which makes the products especially valuable.
However, the AD1N alloy, due to hardening, is able to withstand heavy loads, and it is irrational to use it for the production of food foil, like the A5 alloy. But for the production of devices operating at temperatures up to 400°C and high pressure, cold-worked aluminum ad1n is indispensable.
It is made from:
- heat exchangers;
- gas tanks (for storing liquefied methane);
- liquid air distillers;
- containers for the production of hydrogen peroxide, nitric and acetic acids;
- internal lining of vessels made of carbon steel;
- in the production of dairy products - tanks.
Especially valuable for the food industry are the alloy’s corrosion resistance to food organic acids, the absence of toxic components in corrosion products, and the color stability of food products when stored in AD1n aluminum containers. Sheets of cold-hardened aluminum are used to cover work surfaces for preparing dishes and shelves for storing food and semi-finished products.
Price for aluminum sheet AD1M
The cost of the order is determined based on its parameters: quantity, weight, brand, type of execution, overall packaged dimensions, etc. Price formation is influenced by logistics: transportation distance, the need and timing of storage at the company’s warehouse or intermediate warehouses, the presence and number of cargo transshipments, packaging (for transportation by road, rail or sea). In addition, the price may depend on the size, seasonality of delivery and the ruble exchange rate established at the time of conclusion of the contract.

Application
- Heat exchangers and household radiators have high thermal conductivity. Among household radiators, devices with an anodized surface are especially popular. They have better heat dissipation than cast iron batteries.
- As an electrical conductor, the electrical conductivity of aluminum is 4 times higher than that of iron, which makes it in demand in this area.
- In the chemical and oil and gas industries - corrosion resistance and stability even in concentrated environments. Equipment, containers, and pipelines are made from AD1n sheet.
- In cryogenic devices - plasticity at ultra-low temperatures.
- For high-quality mirrors, the excellent reflectivity of polished aluminum is important, and the low price makes AD1N sheet an excellent replacement for silver and iridium.
- There is no toxicity in the manufacture of utensils and equipment for medicine and the food industry. The material perfectly takes and holds its shape, can be stamped, and does not emit harmful substances when heated and cooled. Now it is used to make professional and household kitchen appliances, dishes, and cutlery at budget prices.
- In automobile and aircraft construction - low weight, strength and the formation of an oxide film in the air on the metal surface, which prevents corrosion. Alloy car wheels, various engine parts, internal communications, aluminum interior trim are found in both budget and luxury models.
The low strength of aluminum determines its limited use in construction - only as a finishing material and unloaded rolled products.
With additional processing by grinding, polishing, and roughing, the surfaces of the sheets are given varying degrees of roughness and texture, which makes it possible to use ad1n aluminum sheets for the production of construction and finishing materials, furniture, and jewelry.
The main consumers of AD1n sheet are factories in the food and chemical industries. Due to its low weight, transportation of sheet aluminum does not require high costs, flattening provides additional strength, and plasticity - the ability to give any shape using hot and cold working methods. The material is very environmentally friendly - it is 100% recyclable and can be re-manufactured for food grade sheets.
