	Aluminium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aluminium is found primarily as the ore bauxite and is remarkable for its resistance to corrosion (due to the phenomenon of passivation) and its light weight.
		Aluminium is a soft and lightweight metal with a dull silvery appearance, due to a thin layer of oxidation that forms quickly when it is exposed to air.
		Aluminium was selected as the material to be used for the apex of the Washington Monument, at a time when one ounce cost twice the daily wages of a common worker in the project; aluminium was a semiprecious metal at that time.

		Aluminium or aluminum (in North American English) is a chemical element in the periodic table with the symbol Al and atomic number 13.
		Aluminium is a soft, lightweight and but strong metal with a dull silver-gray appearance, due to a thin layer of oxidation that forms quickly when it is exposed to air and which prevents further corrosion.
		Aluminium was, when it was first discovered, extremely difficult to separate from the rocks it was part of and, since the whole of Earth's aluminium was bound up in the form of compounds, the most difficult metal on earth to get, despite the fact that it is one of the planet's most common.

		Aluminium hydrate, A1(OH)3, is obtained as a gelatinous white precipitate, soluble in potassium or sodium hydrate, but insoluble in ammonium chloride, by adding ammonia to a cold solution of an aluminium salt; from boiling solutions the precipitate is opaque.
		Aluminium fluoride, AlFa, obtained by dissolving the metal in hydrofluoric acid, and subliming the residue in a current of hydrogen, forms transparent, very obtuse rhombohedra, which are insoluble in water.

	History of Aluminium (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Aluminium is the third most abundant element in the Earth's crust and constitutes 7.3% by mass.
		They discovered that if they dissolved aluminium oxide (alumina) in a bath of molten cryolite and passed a powerful electric current through it, then molten aluminium would be deposited at the bottom of the bath.
		Aluminium has only been produced commercially for 146 years and is still a very young metal.

		Aluminium was, when it was first discovered, extremely difficult to separate from its ore. The reason is that aluminium is oxidised very rapidly and that its oxide is an extremely stable compound that, unlike rust on iron, does not flake off.
		Refining aluminium requires enormous amounts of electricity; recycling it requires only 5% of the energy to produce it.
		This discovery is reported to give rise to the possibility of a new characterisation of the periodic table: superatoms.

	Aluminium — Advantages and Properties of Aluminium
		Aluminium is an excellent heat and electricity conductor and in relation to its weight is almost twice as good a conductor as copper.
		Aluminium is a good reflector of visible light as well as heat, and that together with its low weight, makes it an ideal material for reflectors in, for example, light fittings or rescue blankets.
		Aluminium foil, even when it is rolled to only 0.007 mm thickness, is still completely impermeable and lets neither light aroma nor taste substances out.

		Powdered aluminium and rust in the approximate ratio of 1:3 are packed in a refractory crucible with a magnesium ribbon, or a powder of magnesium and barium peroxide, to ignite it.
		Aluminium can be protected by a thick layer of oxide made by electrolysis, a process called "anodizing." The surface is first thoroughly cleaned and degreased in trichloroethylene, or by electrolysis, where the aluminium is the cathode and the grease driven off by the evolved hydrogen.
		Aluminium sulphate is found in nature as the rare mineral Kalinite, which is soluble in water, so it is found only near volcanoes and such places where it is make by the action of sulphuric acid on clays, such as on Lipari, near Vesuvius, and a few places in Germany and South America.
