FAQ

I am writing a science-fiction story, and I am planning on making Aluminum this ultra-valuable element (Which adds irony - Aluminum is the third most abundant element on Earth!) Even if ol' atomic no. 13 is as common throughout the universe as it is on Earth, I can bring up 'multiverse' to get away with it. I think it'd still be nice to know.
Interesting, the aluminum must flow? Aluminum is not as common as other elements. It is not readily produced in the cores of stars through the alpha-capture process (which produces things like carbon, oxygen, neon, magnesium, silicon, etc.). This means it is only produced via supernova explosions. The table in Wikipedia (see link below) will give you an idea of the relative abundance to other elements. (Notice that magnesium and silicon, which are before and after aluminum, are nearly 100 times more abundant). As a fellow, Sci-Fi enthusiast, I'd remind you to make you're story believable. If you decide that your universe won't have supernovae, remember that would mean there would be no iron, gold, uranium, etc. My answer has been long enough, but I'm sure you have an idea why aluminum is so abundant on the Earth's crust so I'll stop here.
Some of the different edge treatments available for aluminum coils include mill finish, edge trim, deburred edge, rounded edge, and hemmed edge.
The weight ranges of aluminum coils vary depending on their size and thickness. Generally, aluminum coils can range anywhere from a few hundred pounds to several thousand pounds. Smaller coils, typically used for household purposes or in manufacturing small parts, can weigh around 100-500 pounds. Medium-sized coils, commonly used in construction or automotive industries, can range from 500-2,000 pounds. Larger coils, which are commonly used in heavy-duty applications such as aerospace or marine industries, can weigh over 2,000 pounds and sometimes exceed 10,000 pounds. It is important to note that these weight ranges are approximate and can vary based on the specific requirements of a particular project or application.
There are several coil handling equipment options available for handling aluminum coils, depending on the specific requirements and preferences of the user. Some of the common options include: 1. Coil Lifters: Coil lifters are specially designed lifting devices that can safely and efficiently handle aluminum coils. They typically consist of a set of clamps or hooks that securely hold the coil and are attached to a lifting mechanism. Coil lifters can be manually operated or powered by electricity or hydraulics, providing ease of use and increased productivity. 2. Coil Tippers: Coil tippers are used to rotate or tilt aluminum coils to facilitate loading, unloading, or positioning. They are typically equipped with adjustable arms or clamps that hold the coil in place during rotation. Coil tippers can be controlled manually or using hydraulic or electric systems, allowing for precise and controlled movements. 3. Coil Cars: Coil cars are specially designed transport vehicles that are used to move aluminum coils within a manufacturing facility or between different areas. They are equipped with a platform or carriage on which the coil is placed, and can feature various mechanisms for loading, unloading, and positioning the coil. Coil cars can be manually operated or powered by electricity or hydraulics for increased efficiency. 4. Coil Turnstiles: Coil turnstiles are used to safely and efficiently store and retrieve aluminum coils in a vertical position. They typically consist of a rotating drum or spool that can hold multiple coils, allowing for easy access and retrieval. Coil turnstiles can be manually operated or powered by electricity or hydraulics, providing quick and convenient storage solutions. 5. Coil Cradles: Coil cradles are used to support and protect aluminum coils during storage or transportation. They typically consist of a sturdy frame or structure with adjustable arms or supports that securely hold the coil in place. Coil cradles can be customized to accommodate different coil sizes and weights, ensuring safe and stable handling. Overall, these coil handling equipment options provide various solutions for efficiently and safely handling aluminum coils, helping to streamline manufacturing processes and improve productivity. The choice of equipment would depend on factors such as the size and weight of the coils, the specific requirements of the operation, and the available budget.
Some of the different surface treatments available for aluminum coils include anodizing, painting, laminating, and powder coating. Anodizing involves creating a protective oxide layer on the surface of the aluminum, which improves corrosion resistance and provides a decorative finish. Painting involves applying a layer of paint onto the surface, offering both aesthetic customization and protection against corrosion. Laminating involves bonding a thin layer of protective film onto the surface of the aluminum for added durability and resistance to scratches. Powder coating involves applying a dry powder onto the surface, which is then heated and cured to form a durable and decorative finish. These various surface treatments offer different benefits and can be chosen based on the specific requirements of the application.
I go on a trip once a year with a group of lets say 10 people, we go for 7 nights and consume on average approx 120 cans of beer each (throughout the week). We have a fire burning the whole time in a hole that we dig approx 1ft deep, then we dispose of each can in the fire and let them melt down never thinking about them again. That's approx 1,200 cans that melt in the one fire hole.Will the aluminum have an affect on the soil? does anyone know what sort of damage this can cause? and for what distance / area around the fire might be affected?The theory amongst the group is that cans do not hurt anything so that's why they take cans instead of glass.Thanks
Aluminum is very reactive in air and will form a layer of aluminum oxide around the outside of any piece. This oxide layer is very stable which is why aluminum doesn't corrode. Since your block of aluminum will be totally oxidized being in a fire, it's inert and just going to sit in the hole for the foreseeable future. The burning paint might not be healthy to breath but that's about the only hazard. Most common soil is a mixture of aluminum, carbon and silica compounds anyways so you aren't even adding anything particularly exotic. Alternatively, you could bring along a couple fifths of whiskey. It's lighter and has less packaging so it's the environmentally friendly way to get drunk.
I am looking for a good comparison between carbon fiber and aluminum, we presently use aluminum in a lot of our manufacturing and may want to use cf. Does anyone have a simple breakdown of rough cost difference, weight savings, sheet thickness for a certain strength, that kind of thing, kind of struck-out looking on google unless I wanted a bike...Thanks in advance.
CF tends to be more expensive than aluminum, but has some radar reflective (actually absorption) properties. CF has has good tensile strength but is not as flexible as aluminum...tends to crack under strain more than aluminum.
Aluminum coils are used in the production of electrical conductors as they provide a lightweight and cost-effective alternative to copper coils. The coils are typically wound around a core to create a magnetic field when electricity passes through them, allowing for the efficient transmission of electrical energy. Aluminum's high conductivity and low resistance make it an ideal choice for manufacturing electrical conductors, resulting in improved energy efficiency and reduced production costs.
