Spherical Aluminum Bronze Powder Description
Spherical Aluminum Bronze Powder is produced by water-atomizing or air-atomizing. Aluminum bronze is a type of bronze in which aluminum is the main alloying metal added to copper. A variety of aluminum bronzes of differing compositions have found industrial use, with most ranging from 5% to 11% aluminum by weight, the remaining mass being copper.

Spherical Aluminum Bronze Powder Properties
Aluminum bronze powder has high fatigue resistance, making it suitable for components subjected to prolonged cyclic stress. The presence of aluminum (Al) significantly improves the alloy's strength and hardness while enhancing its wear resistance. The addition of tin (Sn) further boosts its corrosion resistance, providing greater stability in harsh environments.
Spherical Aluminum Bronze Powder Applications
Aluminum Bronzes are most commonly used in applications where their resistance to corrosion makes them preferable to other engineering materials. Such as:
- bushings and landing gear components on aircraft
- engine components, especially for seagoing ships
- underwater fastenings in Naval architecture
- ship propellers
The attractive gold-toned coloration of aluminum bronzes has also led to their use in jewelry.

Spherical Aluminum Bronze Powder – FAQs
1. Spherical Aluminum Bronze Powder Composition
The aluminum content typically does not exceed 11.5%. Iron, nickel, manganese, and other elements may be added in appropriate amounts to further enhance its properties.
2. Can Aluminum Bronze Powder Be Used for Shape Memory Alloys?
Yes. Aluminum bronze exhibits a shape memory effect and has been developed as a shape memory alloy.
3. What is the Price of Spherical Aluminum Bronze Powder?
Aluminum bronze alloys are relatively low-cost, making them a practical alternative to more expensive materials, such as Tin bronze, Stainless steel, and Nickel-based alloys.
