Maritime environments are brutal: saltwater, humidity, impact and cyclic loads drive corrosion and structural fatigue. BLOOH’s scandium–aluminum alloys are engineered for toughness at sea—combining high strength, superior corrosion resistance and weldability to lower weight and extend service life. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
