The irony of aluminum

The irony of aluminum. Aluminum cans, foil, silver paint. All these would not be present if aluminum was not in existence in the earth’s crust. On the other hand, they would be very costly if Charles Martin Hall and Paul Héroult did not notice electrolysis, which is the process of taking out the metal from its ore in today’s day. Providentially, they did find it. The Hall-Héroult method for the production of aluminum is the leading method used in the metalworking industry alive today.

For the further commercial use of this plentiful metal, metalworkers use the aluminum casting process to mass manufacture aluminum alloys. Die molding, hot isostatic pressing, sand casting, composite mold casting, continuous mold casting, permanent mold casting, centrifugal casting, investment casting, and plaster casting; this is a list of the many ways of aluminum part castings. These metal parts have many uses in the aeronautic, automobile, electronic, and electrical industries.

Because of this silvery lightweight metal’s amazing versatility, aluminum cast parts are also established in such gadgets as transistors, computers, mobile phones, lawnmowers, cars, escalators, aircraft, conveyor belts, streetlamps, and some dental equipment. Furthermore, aluminum compounds are used in the construction of glass, ceramics, antiperspirants, synthetic rubber, paint, paper, cosmetics, varnishes, and leather tanning.

If science and technology did not proceed, aluminum would still be more pricey than gold in today’s day. The satire of aluminum is that of all the metals on earth it is the most plentiful one, but it could not have been used as it is used today without a cost-efficient technique of taking out the metal.
