Aluminium

Aluminium and its alloys are characterized by low density, good corrosion resistance and favorable mechanical workability. Key topics include alloy development, cold and hot forming, precipitation hardening, surface treatments and recycling, and their influence on strength, ductility and fatigue performance.
