Shipbuilding aluminum plates mainly use 5 series, 6 series and 7 series alloys. Marine aluminum plates are mainly 5083, 5086 and 5456 aluminum alloy. Since the 6 series alloys exhibit intergranular corrosion in seawater, they are mainly used for the upper structure of ships. The strength and process performance of the 7-series alloy after heat treatment is superior to that of the 5 series alloys. It has a broad application prospect in the field of marine aluminum alloys. It is mainly used in the upper structure of warships, such as compression structures and armor plates, but the disadvantage of 7 alloys is its resistance to stress. The poor corrosion performance limits the use of this alloy.

Marine aluminum plates are the development direction of many aluminum processing companies in recent years. Domestic aluminum alloy shipbuilding companies have initiated transformation and upgrading models for China Aluminum, Southwest Aluminum, Nanshan Aluminum, Mingtai Aluminum, and Wanda Aluminum. Among them, Mingtai Aluminum is fast. In 2015, Mingtai Aluminum Marine Aluminum won the China Classification Society Factory Accreditation Certificate issued by China Classification Society, Wuhan Branch.
In July 2015, Mingtai Aluminum produced 200,000 tons (1+1) of 3300mm wide hot rolling mill production line. The production line products are mainly 5, 6, and 7 series aluminum alloys, which are mainly used in the fields of automobiles, ships, and rails. In September 2015, Mingtai Aluminum successfully passed the certification of DNV and obtained the pass to enter the foreign marine aluminum market. Mingtai Gorgeously completed the upgrade of the company.
