Industry Development Trends：
1.The technology is moving towards precise atomic-scale control, accelerating the integration of intelligent R&D.
In the future, amorphous alloy technology will witness a leap from "composition control" to "precise atomic-scale customization". The amorphous materials team at Songshan Lake Materials Laboratory has innovatively proposed an atomic manufacturing strategy, achieving for the first time the precise customization of nanostructures across multiple scales and degrees of order in a fixed-composition ZrCuAl alloy. This breakthrough has successfully surpassed the limit of strong plasticity synergy - the Spinodal glass has a yield strength of up to 3.89 GPa and a compressive strain of 69%, achieving a perfect combination of ultra-high strength and large plasticity. This breakthrough has opened up a new path for the development of high-performance alloy thin film materials and provided ideal candidate materials for fields with strict mechanical performance requirements such as microelectromechanical systems and precision instruments. At the same time, artificial intelligence technology is accelerating its integration into the entire R&D process. Through machine learning models to predict the performance of amorphous alloy powders, establishing "performance maps" and databases, and introducing AI-based process optimization systems to increase product qualification rates and reduce energy consumption. The "structural programming" method at the atomic scale has broken through the fundamental limitation of traditional alloy design relying on composition control, laying a theoretical and experimental foundation for the atomic-level precise manufacturing of next-generation high-performance amorphous materials.
2. Industrial chain autonomy and continuous expansion of emerging application scenarios
During the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, the process of achieving autonomy in the amorphous alloy industrial chain will enter a critical stage, with application scenarios accelerating their penetration from power electronics to high-end manufacturing. The industrialization process of amorphous coating technology will significantly accelerate, and there is an increasingly urgent demand for high-performance anti-corrosion and wear-resistant coatings in energy fields such as thermal power, wind power, and hydropower. Amorphous alloy coatings are transitioning from "small, rapid steps" to "big strides". They are first applied in thermal power enterprises in complex environments such as Xinjiang and Qinghai, and the demand for anti-corrosion in coastal ports and offshore wind turbine towers brings new opportunities. In the consumer electronics field, Amag Technology's amorphous alloy, as a core material for folding screen hinges, has been supplied in bulk to Huawei. After the new base in Zhuzhou is put into production, the supply capacity will be further enhanced to meet the market growth demand for folding screen phones and laptops. Emerging application areas such as the joints of embodied robots and precision transmission components are opening up broad application spaces.
3. The rapid growth of the market size and the promotion of connotation improvement form a dual driving force.
Under the dual drive of the "dual carbon" strategy and emerging demands, the market size of amorphous alloys in China will maintain a high growth rate. Among them, the demand for high-frequency and low-loss magnetic materials in emerging fields such as new energy vehicles, photovoltaic energy storage, and data centers has surged, becoming a new growth engine. However, while the industry is expanding in scale, it also needs to pay more attention to connotation improvement - currently, the amorphous alloy powder industry faces three major challenges: the mismatch between product quality and market demand, insufficient research on material properties, and the urgent need to improve product consistency and stability. The China Electrical Equipment Industry Association points out that China's amorphous alloy industry is in a position of running parallel or leading globally, but there is a slight gap in consistency and stability compared with Japan, the United States, and other countries. In the future, it is necessary to seize new application opportunities such as solid-state transformer cores, amorphous motor cores, and automotive core magnetic integration, prevent internal competition, and promote the standardized development of the industry through the construction of high-quality standards.
