APPLICATION OF ALUMINUM IN THE RAILWAY INDUSTRY
Anna Bouzekova-Penkova This paper provides a brief overview of the types of aluminum alloys used in the railway industry. Aluminum and aluminum alloys are the materials that contribute to the rapid development and modernization of the sector due to the lightweight nature of railway vehicles. The lightweight construction allows trains to accelerate and decelerate more efficiently. It enables the transportation of more useful cargo at lower costs, reduces the load on railway tracks, and decreases their wear. Besides being lightweight, strong, and durable, aluminum is highly valued in the construction of freight cars. It is biologically neutral, easy to maintain, and does not interact with the cargo. For the transport of grain and other food cargo, aluminum is important from the point of view of the hygienic properties of the material. Its corrosion resistance allows for the transport of aggressive loads in chemical tanks and mineral bunkers.
