Aluminium

Aluminium Introduction: The element Aluminium has a symbol of Al and has an atomic number of 13. It is a very light, soft and useful metal used for many things such as cans, foil and kitchen utensils. It is a ductile metal, a good conductor of heat and electricity, does not corrode and is a solid at room temperature

Aluminium, 13th element in periodic table is a silvery-white metal. Aluminium is one of the most widespread metal in the earth’s crust, constituting more than 8% of earth’s core mass. Aluminum is one of the world’s most abundant metals and after oxygen and silicon, aluminium is the third most common element present on earth. Aluminium alloys which are widely used across the globe can be produced in two different ways: - 1. Primary alloys are produced from pure molten aluminium which are melted

CHAPTER 3 LITERATURE REVIEW 3.1 Introduction The Al-Zn-Mg series aluminium alloys (7xxx) are the heat treatable alloys and widely applied as large structural components in navigation and transportation facilities, due to good combination of hardness, high strength and fracture toughness [1-6]. The use of Sc (scandium) to achieve grain refinement has recently received great attention. The microstructures and properties of aluminium alloys are strongly affected by adding small quantities of scandium

Reported incidences of toxicity due to aluminium based vaccines have always been a concern (Clements, 1996; Clements and Griffiths, 2002; Edleman, 1997). Therefore, there has always been a constant effort to search for alternative adjuvants. Polymeric micro and nanoparticles can act as a delivery vehicle and along with their adjuvanting capabilities may enhance the efficacy of the vaccine (Gregory et al., 2013; Koping-Hoggard et al., 2005; Panyam and Labhasetwar, 2003). Biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles

(2011) Despite being the most abundant metal on earth (in its raw state of bauxite), aluminium used to be considered a precious metal. Only once the processes of extraction and smelting were made more efficient and electricity became cheaper and more readily available did aluminium become what it is today – the most extensively used non-ferrous metal in the world and the most liquid contract traded on the LME. Aluminium is extremely light, pliable, has good electrical conductivity and is resistant to

1. An alloy is a homogenous mixture of a metal with one or more other elements which are usually other metals. The purpose of making alloys is to alter or enhance a metal’s chemical and physical properties in order to use the alloy for a specific function. For example, alloys can be made to enhance the hardness, magnetism, tensile strength and corrosion resistance of a metal. The harder alloy can replace the use of another metal that does not have the required and ideal characteristics for a particular

Introduction: In design and fabrication of metallic equipment and structures, often weight saving is often used to improve efficiency in in-service performance of the item. This paper will explore the interactive model of product development, which includes the important of: the uses of alternative materials on the design, fabrication and in- service behaviour of the item in order to provide awareness of how issue of the underlying principles of each of these weight saving alternatives and the
