FAQ

Yes, aluminum sheets are suitable for food storage applications. Aluminum is a non-toxic and non-reactive metal that does not impart any taste or odor to food. It provides an excellent barrier against light, moisture, and oxygen, which helps in preserving the quality and freshness of the stored food. Additionally, aluminum sheets are lightweight, durable, and recyclable, making them a popular choice for food storage.

Yes, aluminum sheets can be used for manufacturing ventilation systems. Aluminum is a lightweight and corrosion-resistant material, making it a suitable choice for ventilation systems. Its high thermal conductivity allows for efficient heat transfer, making it ideal for applications where temperature control is necessary. Additionally, aluminum is easily formable, allowing for the creation of complex shapes and designs required for ventilation systems. Overall, aluminum sheets are a popular and practical choice for manufacturing ventilation systems.

Aluminum sheets possess several physical properties, including being lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and having a high strength-to-weight ratio. They are also ductile, meaning they can be easily shaped or formed without breaking. Additionally, aluminum sheets have excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, making them suitable for various applications in industries such as construction, aerospace, and automotive.

I have a specific design I'd like to cut out of thin sheet metal (aluminum or tin) and I'm wondering how to make it more sturdy. The sheet metal is a bit flimsy. Can I strengthen it by heating it up (butane torch) and cooling it quickly?

No. In fact, aluminum (and I believe tin) work harden when hammered - as do brass and copper and you heat to anneal and then you can cool fast or slow, still soft. Tin has a very low melting point and hitting it with a torch, especially if thin, will probably put a hole in it. The chances of you actually having tin sheet metal are very low - tin cans are zinc plated steel or some other coating. Steel does harden when quench, but heating tin or zinc coated metal is likely to damage the coating and perhaps give off noxious fumes - especially zinc.

This aluminum is on a mobile home. I trying to repaint it and there is alot of areas were rust has ate the metal away. Especially in the seams. How can I get rid of the rust that already exists and stop it from coming back.

Uh......... aluminum doesn't rust. Has to be some iron in there somewhere.

1. Esrp for aluminum is -1.66V. Why is Al not reactive when dipped in cold water?2. Explain why the reaction between water and Al becomes more reactive when Al has been treated first with Mercury chloride.3. Aluminum hydroxide dissolve in both acid and base. What do you call this type of behavior?4. Describe the function of aluminum hydroxide in the testile industry.5. Aluminum sol. which contains [Al(H2O)6]3+ ions have the tendency to hydrolyze. Why? Recommend a method to prevent hydrolysis of aluminum ions.6. In the preparation of alum, sulphuric acid is added to the aluminum hydroxide sol. Why?

Al is not reactive because it is so reactive - it gets coated with oxide immediately on exposure, the oxide layer is strong and quite inert except to strong acids.

The maximum temperature that aluminum sheets can withstand depends on various factors such as the specific alloy, thickness, and application. However, in general, aluminum sheets can withstand temperatures up to around 600°C (1112°F) before they start to lose their structural integrity and strength.

Not just cans. How is aluminum recycled and what is the process. Not the scientific formula! How its done entering the plant.

First, aluminum is shredded. It is then melted and turned into molten aluminum. Once it becomes molten, the used aluminum does not differ from new aluminum. It is then molded into the new product. Recycling aluminum is much more energy efficient than melting new ore into aluminum because it takes three times the energy to produce than if it was recycled.
