Medals are very important for every game. For the winner, a medal is a great prize, a symbol of honor and hard work.Why are the medals made of zinc alloy? The medals are made of advanced materials. Can be stored for a long time. It has great collection and commemorative significance.
Many medallion medals are made by zinc alloy because zinc alloy is great material to store and has collection value. It can be preserved for a long time.
Why are the medals made of zinc alloy?
We will discuss this topic from medals made of zinc alloy advantage, compare with other metal alloys to find the answers.
Zinc is a commonly used alloy for a wide range of components across all industries. With its versatility and corrosion resistance, Its physical and chemical properties make it especially well-suited for automotive and medical manufactured parts and components.
Zinc die casting is a manufacturing process where manufacturers use zinc or its alloys to make durable and precise die-cast medals. The hot chamber die casting process is used for casting zinc alloys which offer faster casting cycles.
What is the advantage of zinc alloy?
Due to the low melting point of zinc, the mold will not receive excessive heat during casting. Therefore, the mold has a longer service life.
Zinc alloys can be melted with a low melting point of more than 420 degrees on average, and have good fluidity, corrosion resistance, and easy handling characteristics.
The cost of zinc alloys is cheaper than other metal alloys.
To make medals more perfect, various processing methods such as electroplating, spraying, and painting can be used.
Zinc alloy compare with other metal alloy
Compared with aluminum, zinc alloy is easier to manufacture longer and smaller holes on parts.Sometimes manufacturers need to produce small and precise parts. In this case, zinc alloy is better than aluminum alloy. Suppliers can use zinc alloy instead of aluminum alloy to achieve thinner walls. In addition, in some cases, zinc alloy parts have better mechanical ability than aluminum.
Compared with magnesium, zinc alloy has better elongation and higher density than magnesium. And the cost of magnesium and its alloys is higher than that of zinc alloys. But its strength is not as strong as zinc alloy.
In addition, zinc alloy have strong wear resistance and are not easily deformed. So above of these are why are medals made of zinc alloy?
