This collaboration aims to accelerate the transformation of Shanxi's aluminum and magnesium industry towards the high-end new energy sector. The Shanxi Provincial Laboratory for New Energy Metal Materials is the highest-level innovation platform in the province, focusing on the development needs of new energy vehicles and lightweight energy storage. It will focus on four core research directions: low-carbon smelting, high-performance alloys, precision forming, and solid waste recycling, addressing industry technical pain points and building a complete aluminum-magnesium R&D system. Leveraging the province's most complete aluminum industry chain resources, Chalco Shanxi New Materials will fully utilize its pilot-scale production advantages, collaborating with universities and leading enterprises to focus on tackling "bottleneck" technologies in areas such as battery substrates and lightweight alloys. This will significantly shorten the research and development cycle and achieve integrated development of basic research, technological breakthroughs, and industrial application.
