GB/T 47094-2026 Officially Implemented: Interpretation of the National Standard for Zinc and Zinc Alloy Powders Used in Additive Manufacturing

On August 1, 2026, the national standard “Zinc and Zinc Alloy Powders for Additive Manufacturing” (GB/T 47094-2026) officially came into effect. This is one of China’s key standards for zinc and zinc alloy powders used in additive manufacturing, providing a unified national basis for product classification, technical requirements, testing, and quality evaluation. The standard is jointly managed by the National Technical Committee for Nonferrous Metals Standardization and the National Technical Committee for Additive Manufacturing, covering three major powder categories—F‑Zn pure zinc, F‑Zn‑Cu zinc‑copper, and F‑Zn‑Cu‑Bi zinc‑copper‑bismuth—and establishing uniform technical specifications for powders specifically intended for LPBF laser powder bed fusion processes. Notably, Tangshan Weihao Magnesium Powder Co., Ltd., as one of the principal drafting units, participated throughout the entire process, including indicator testing, industry data compilation, and the formulation of standard provisions, thereby contributing to the development of this standard.
