Advantages and characteristics of aluminum


(1) Low density

The density of aluminum is about 2.7g/cm³. Its density is only 1/3 of iron or copper.


(2) High plasticity

Aluminum has good ductility and can be made into various products through pressure processing methods such as extrusion and stretching.


(3) Corrosion resistance

Aluminum is a highly negatively charged metal. A protective oxide film will be formed on the surface under natural conditions or anodic oxidation. It has much better corrosion resistance than steel.
