Concept in Definition ABC

Soda cans, the wrapping paper we use to bake food in the oven, tables, chairs, kitchen and office items and some tools used at the request of the building, all of them, have something in common, a material that makes them up and that is undoubtedly one of the most popular and most found metals on our planet earth: aluminum. China and Russia are the two countries that take the lead in terms of their production.

Since the most remote times humanity has used it, in those initiation years it was vital in areas such as medicine and dry cleaning, while only in the 19th century with the advances in fields such as chemistry and physics, he was singled out, named and studies began around him that would generate important conclusions and diversifications in terms of his use.

On the one hand, the situations of being an element of low economic cost and of being a material that has been present in large quantities in our land, and for On the other hand, its unique characteristics make aluminum a highly appreciated material and used by various industries to manufacture many products.

Aluminum has unique and special characteristics that are precisely what allow it to be used to produce elements and materials as different as those already mentioned. On beginning is characterized by its lightness, malleability and by conduction of both heat and electricity, and on the other hand, its permeability to treatments and alloys are what allow aluminum to be used for the most different issues.

To give a finished sample of that versatility that it boasts, we must say that despite its lightness and malleability, aluminum, can be treated in this sense and become a hyper resistant material to any traction. This is possible by alloying it with other chemical elements, among them: copper, silicon, manganese or zinc.

In times like our days where recycling turns out to be a primary activity to, on the one hand, prevent certain resources they run out and on the other hand to keep the Balance natural of our environment, aluminum, provides its grain of sand thanks to its ability to be recycled, maintaining its initial properties and characteristics. The aluminum recycling process is certainly simple since it will only have to be melted in order to obtain the recycled aluminum again.
