Scope
GB/T 22641-2020 is the English-translated version of 船用铝合金板材.
China's national standard for wrought aluminium alloy sheet and plate for shipbuilding. It specifies the requirements, the test methods, the inspection rules and the marks, packaging, transport, storage, quality certificate and order content. Aluminium is used in a ship for one reason and it costs a great deal to use: a hull or a superstructure in aluminium weighs roughly half what the steel equivalent does, and on a fast vessel that weight is the difference between the speed it can reach and the fuel it burns getting there. So the material goes into fast ferries, patrol craft, workboats and the superstructures of larger ships where topweight matters. What it has to survive is seawater, and that limits the alloys sharply. The 5000 series, aluminium with magnesium, and the 6000 series, aluminium with magnesium and silicon, are the only families used, because the copper-bearing high-strength alloys of the 2000 and 7000 series corrode in a marine atmosphere. Even within the 5000 series there is a trap the standard has to address: an aluminium-magnesium alloy above about three per cent magnesium can, if held warm for long enough, precipitate a continuous magnesium-rich phase at the grain boundaries, and that phase is anodic to the grain interior - the plate then becomes susceptible to exfoliation and to intergranular stress corrosion, and it fails in service years later. So the standard specifies not only the composition and the mechanical properties but the temper and the tests for exfoliation and intergranular corrosion, which are what distinguish marine plate from ordinary plate of the same alloy. Issued on 31 March 2020 and in force since 1 February 2021, it replaces GB/T 22641-2008.

3 Requirements...
3.12 Appearance quality
3.12.1 The surface of the plate shall be flat, smooth and well processed; the edges of the plate shall be flat and free of burrs.
3.12.2 The surface of the plate shall not have flaws, such as cracks, creases, nitrate marks, layering, corrosion, oxidized inclusions, peeling, air bubbles, severe metal and non-metallic intrusions or mechanical damage, that affect the subsequent processing or use.
3.12.3 The surface of the plate is allowed to have slight dents, bruises, scrapes, stickies, and imprints that do not affect the use of the buyer; but its depth shall not exceed half the allowable negative deviation of the thickness of the plate; and the thickness deviation of the plate shall not exceed the allowable range.
3.12.4 After obtaining the consent of the user or the user representative, it is allowed to repair the surface defects of the plate by machining or grinding. The depth of the repair shall not exceed the allowable negative deviation of the thickness and shall not have any adverse effects on the material.
