  2. AlGa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AlGa

    The alloy can be reacted with water to form hydrogen gas(H2), aluminum hydroxide and gallium metal. [2] Normally, aluminum does not react with water, since it quickly reacts in air to form a passivation layer of aluminum oxide. AlGa alloy is able to create aluminum nanoparticles for the hydrogen producing reaction.

  3. Chromate conversion coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromate_conversion_coating

    In the aluminum industry, the process is also called chemical film [13] or yellow iridite, [13] Commercial trademarked names include Iridite [13] and Bonderite [14] (formerly known as Alodine, or Alocrom in the UK). [15] The main standards for chromate conversion coating of aluminium are MIL-DTL-5541 in the US, and Def Stan 03/18 in the UK.

  4. Magnalium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnalium

    Alloys with small amounts of magnesium (about 5%) exhibit greater strength, greater corrosion resistance, and lower density than pure aluminium. Such alloys are also more workable and easier to weld than pure aluminum. [1] Alloys with high amounts of magnesium (around 50%) are brittle and more susceptible to corrosion than aluminum.

  5. Anodizing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anodizing

    Aluminium alloy parts are anodized to greatly increase the thickness of this layer for corrosion resistance. The corrosion resistance of aluminium alloys is significantly decreased by certain alloying elements or impurities: copper , iron , and silicon , [ 5 ] so 2000-, 4000-, 6000 and 7000-series Al alloys tend to be most susceptible.

  6. Flux (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_(metallurgy)

    A very thin layer of zinc can be used for joining aluminium parts. The parts have to be perfectly machined, or pressed together, due to the small volume of filler metal. At high temperature applied for long time, the zinc diffuses away from the joint. The resulting joint does not present a mechanical weakness and is corrosion-resistant.

  7. Aluminium–magnesium alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium–magnesium_alloys

    Aluminium-magnesium alloys are considered to be very corrosion-resistant, making them suitable for marine applications, but this is only true if the -phase exists as a non-contiguous phase. Alloys with Mg contents below 3% are therefore always corrosion-resistant, with higher contents, appropriate heat treatment must ensure that this phase is ...

    5. Berries. Berries, with their natural acidity, can also cause aluminum foil to leach into food. They can also fall apart and turn into a sad, mushy mess when cooked in foil at high temperatures.

  9. Aluminium oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_oxide

    Aluminium oxide (or aluminium(III) oxide) is a chemical compound of aluminium and oxygen with the chemical formula Al 2 O 3. It is the most commonly occurring of several aluminium oxides, and specifically identified as aluminium oxide. It is commonly called alumina and may also be called aloxide, aloxite, or alundum in various forms and ...
