DESCRIPTION
Aluminum has been proven to be the economical choice
for a wide variety of applications. Its cost effectiveness
and lightweight characteristics make it a popular
grade of material in petroleum and petrochemical
industries. Aluminum also serves the food, beverage
and drug industries. A cubic inch of Aluminum weighs
about one-tenth of a pound. Its color is like that
of silver. The "commercially" pure metal
has a faintly bluish tinge. Its atomic weight is
26.98 pure. Aluminum melts at a temperature of 1220
deg.F. (or 660 deg.C). The ability of aluminum to
transmit heat rapidly and efficiently makes it an
ideal material for heat transfer processes, cryogenic
applications and similar uses. Its resistance to
corrosion often results in longer service life and
reduced maintenance.
