Why use aluminum near water?
|
|
Aluminum may not be best for constant submersion, but it is popular for boats, docks, pontoons, site furniture and ladders because it is both light and strong. When raw aluminum is exposed to air and water (rather than constantly submerged) the aluminum oxide that develops on the surface can provide protection against further corrosion. The grade is important though: common 3000-series grades of aluminum can oxidize quickly in a marine environment. If you’re sourcing an aluminum item to go in or

What kind of aluminum is used in boats?
|
|
Picking the right grade of aluminum means balancing cost, ease of manufacturing, and the alloy’s material properties. Some alloys are easier to form or weld, which are important manufacturing considerations in hull manufacturing. Other alloys may provide superior corrosion resistance.
Aluminum boats for the retail market, including those by major manufacturers Lund and Princecraft, are primarily crafted from 5052. This wrought aluminum grade contains 2.2%-2.8% magnesium and 0.15%-0.35% chromi

Brass vs. Aluminum

well, with tax return season coming, I'm determined to get another snare. I thought I was set on going for a regular ol' LM400 with tube lugs... of course, then the nagging part of one's mind starts whispering, "Why not brass?".

Is aluminum toxic to humans?
|
|
Exposure to aluminum is usually not harmful, but exposure to high levels can affect your health. Workers who breathe large amounts of aluminum dusts can have lung problems, such as coughing or abnormal chest X-rays.
|
|
What happens to aluminum when it enters the environment?
|
|
Aluminum cannot be destroyed in the environment, it can only change its form.
In the air, aluminum binds to small particles, which can stay suspended for many days.
Under most conditions, a small amount of aluminum will dissolve in lakes, streams, and rivers.
It can be taken up by some plants from soil.
Aluminum is not accumulated to a significant extent in most plants or animals.
|
|
How might I be exposed to aluminum?
|
|
Virtually all food, water, air, and soil contain some aluminum.
The average adult in the U.S. eats about 7-9 mg aluminum per day in their food.
Breathing higher levels of aluminum dust in workplace air.
Living in areas where the air is dusty, where aluminum is mined or processed into aluminum metal, near certain hazardous waste sites, or where aluminum is naturally high.
Eating substances containing high levels of aluminum (such as antacids) especially when eating or drinking citrus products

How can aluminum affect my health?
|
|
Only very small amounts of aluminum that you may inhale, ingest, or have skin contact with will enter the bloodstream.
Exposure to aluminum is usually not harmful, but exposure to high levels can affect your health. Workers who breathe large amounts of aluminum dusts can have lung problems, such as coughing or abnormal chest X-rays. Some workers who breathe aluminum dusts or aluminum fumes have decreased performance in some tests that measure functions of the nervous system.

How likely is aluminum to cause cancer?
|
|
The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and the EPA have not evaluated the carcinogenic potential of aluminum in humans. Aluminum has not been shown to cause cancer in animals.

|
How can aluminum affect children?
|
|
Children with kidney problems who were given aluminum in their medical treatments developed bone diseases. It does not appear that children are more sensitive to aluminum than adults.
We do not know if aluminum will cause birth defects in people. Birth defects have not been seen in animals. Aluminum in large amounts has been shown to be harmful to unborn and developing animals because it can cause delays in skeletal and neurological development.
Aluminum is found in breast milk, but only a

|
How can families reduce the risks of exposure to aluminum?
|
|
Since aluminum is so common and widespread in the environment, families cannot avoid exposure to aluminum.
Avoid taking large quantities of aluminum-containing antacids and buffered aspirin and take these medications as directed.
Make sure all medications have child-proof caps so children will not accidentally eat them.
|
|
Is there a medical test to determine whether I've been exposed to aluminum?
|
|
All people have small amounts of aluminum in their bodies. Aluminum can be measured in blood, bones, feces, or urine. Urine and blood aluminum measurements can tell you whether you have been exposed to larger-than-normal amounts of aluminum. Measuring bone aluminum can also indicate exposure to high levels, but this requires a bone biopsy.

what is aluminum fly ash
|
|
High-alumina fly ash (HAFA) is one of the categories of industrial solid wastes and the extraction of aluminum from HAFA could offer an alternative to the commercially available aluminum salts to prepare advanced materials such as Al-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). In the present work, eco-MIL-53(Al) has been successfully fabricated through a one-pot method by reacting the HAFA or sintered product (obtained by alkaline fusion activation treatment of HAFA) with terephthalic acid, respectiv

What is aluminum and stainless steel sheet?
|
|
A metal slab or billet that has been preheated is fed through rollers until it reaches the desired thickness to make a sheet. “Hot rolling” is the term used to describe this procedure.
Products made of stainless and carbon steel are frequently pickled after being hot-rolled. The metal is put through an acid bath to achieve this. After the pickling process, traditional carbon steel is quite prone to rust. Thus, a thin layer of oil is applied to protect the surface. The majority of stainless st

What is the difference between 4043 and 5356 aluminum?
|
|
As a basic description, we can say that 4043 is an aluminum filler alloy with 5% silicon added and that 5356 is an aluminum filler alloy with 5% magnesium added. There are some misconceptions within the industry that you can successfully weld any aluminum base alloy with either 4043 or 5356 filler alloy.

Description of 3003 aluminum sheet
3003 is a representative product of the 3-series aluminum-manganese alloy. It is known as a rust-proof aluminum with a wide range of uses. It can be seen that its corrosion resistance is very high. In addition, the strength of 3003 aluminum sheet is about 10% higher than that of 1100, and its formability, weldability and corrosion resistance are all good. But it cannot be strengthened by heat treatment, so the cold w

how is made aluminum disc/aluminium circle ?
After the hot rolling process, a cold rolling phase reduces aluminum to the thickness our customers require. The coil pass then through a press where circles are sheared off in the needed diameter. The circles are finally placed in an oven for the annealing process: this gives the metal the right mechanical properties, making deformation (deep-draw

What is aluminum-scandium master alloy?
|
|
The chemical composition of the aluminum-scandium master alloy is 2% scandium and the balance is aluminum. The master alloy is used to add scandium to Al-Mg, Al-Mg-Zr, and Al-Zn-Mg containing alloys, which are used in the form of sheets, plates, and profiles. These materials are mainly used in aircraft, military, and other demanding applications.
Important physical properties of Al-Sc alloys:

|
How do we see aluminum-scandium being utilized in the future?
|
|
The price of scandium has prevented a wider application in the aluminum industry but now we are going to change this situation. Scandium was just used in high-end markets like aerospace and sporting goods because of the high scandium cost, now we are confident in promoting it to the traditional aluminum processing industry based on our abundant scandium resource. However, what price is acceptable to users needs further discussion and market feedback.

Which is correct aluminum or aluminium?
|
|
Both aluminum and aluminium have a long history of use referring to the metallic element (commonly used as foil to cover food). They both date to the early 19th century, stemming from the word alumina. Aluminum became preferred in the United States and Canada, while aluminium became favored throughout the rest of the English-speaking world.
