A calcium–aluminium-rich inclusion or Ca–Al-rich inclusion (CAI) is a submillimeter- to centimeter-sized light-colored calcium- and aluminium-rich inclusion found in carbonaceous chondrite meteorites. The four CAIs that have been dated using the Pb-Pb chronometer yield a weighted mean age of 4567.30 ± 0.16 Myr.
Krotite was reported in 2011 [3] in a calcium-aluminium-rich inclusion (CAI) in the carbonaceous chondrite meteorite NWA (North West Africa) 1934, which landed in Morocco. [4] The mineral name was approved by the International Mineralogical Association (IMA 2010-038) [ 5 ] and honors Alexander N. Krot, a researcher in cosmochemistry at the ...
Hibonite also is a common mineral in the Ca-Al-rich inclusions found in some chondritic meteorites. Hibonite is closely related to hibonite-Fe (IMA 2009-027, (Fe,Mg)Al 12 O 19)) an alteration mineral from the Allende meteorite. [4] Hibonites were among the first minerals to form as the disk of gas and dust swirling around the young sun cooled. [5]
The following inclusion types can also be found in aluminium alloys: alumina needles (Al 2 O 3), nitrides (AlN), iron oxides (FeO), manganese oxides (MnO), fluorides (Na 3 AlF 6, NaF, CaF 2, …), aluminium borides (AlB 2, AlB 12), borocarbides (Al 4 C 4 B). Bone ash (Ca 3 (PO 4) 2) sometimes added to patch cracks in the trough can be found as ...
Al-Ca composite is a high-conductivity, high-strength, lightweight composite consisting of sub-micron-diameter pure calcium metal filaments embedded inside a pure aluminium metal matrix. The material is still in the development phase, but it has potential use as an overhead high-voltage power transmission conductor . [ 1 ]
