Aluminum, especially when alloyed with one or more of several common
elements, has been increasingly specified and used in packaging, architectural,
building product, transportation, chemical, electrical, heat exchanger
and many general applications. Today, aluminum is surpassed only by steel
in its use as a structural material. The properties of aluminum and its
alloys, which give rise to their widespread usage, with particular emphasis
on corrosion resistance, and the designation systems for aluminum alloys
and applicable tempers are briefly described in this report. Several references
are provided for the reader who may desire more detailed information. |
