The Advanced Metal Materials Laboratory is located in the Nanling campus of Jilin University, covering an area of 1175 square meters and equipped with a series of preparation and testing equipment for advanced lightweight metals and alloys. The laboratory focuses on the design and development of high-performance titanium alloys, magnesium alloys, and aluminum alloys, featured with the preparation of low-cost and high-strength titanium and titanium alloys using powder metallurgy. By optimizing the alloy composition and processing technique, a systematic design scheme is established from theoretical analysis to material microstructure control, manufacturing, forming process, and performance evaluation, providing strong support for the rapid development of China's titanium industry.

To solve problems such as high cost, low usage, and poor formability of lightweight alloys, the Advanced Metal Materials team adopts advanced preparation technologies such as powder metallurgy, sub-rapid solidification, and rapid extrusion forming, and is committed to the research of titanium alloys, magnesium alloys, and aluminum alloys in fields such as aerospace, automotive, and biomedical. Research directions include the preparation of low-cost, high-performance titanium alloys using powder metallurgy; the preparation of high-performance titanium alloy fasteners using powder metallurgy; thermal-mechanical processing of large-sized titanium alloy aerospace components; short-process rolling of large-sized magnesium alloys. The team's research goal is to reduce the production cost of lightweight alloys, develop lightweight alloy powders suitable for conventional powder metallurgy and additive manufacturing, and promote the application of lightweight alloy powder metallurgy, near-net shape manufacturing, short-process extrusion and rolling technologies in aerospace, automotive, and biomedical fields.
