Most of us know aluminum is often strong enough to replace steel and light enough to use as cooking foil. Yet aluminum was once thought as more valuable than gold. What has changed? Why is one of the world’s rarest metals now used in more quantities than any metal except iron?

Aluminum is used on a wide variety of applications because it is lightweight, easy to work into new shapes, fire-proof, heat-resistant and resistant to corrosion, but it tends to be a kind of brittle metal that can break when a certain force is applied in certain ways. It reflects light and heat very effectively and it doesn't rust. It reacts easily with other chemical elements, especially oxygen, and readily forms an outer layer of aluminum oxide if you leave it in the air. We call these things aluminum's physical and chemical properties. These are the reasons why it is widely used in different welding works.

Aluminum has a lot of uses. It is often used for window frames, automobile components, bicycle components, building materials such as shuttering formwork, and much more. It is even used as parts in an aircraft. The aluminum can be cut and shaped fairly easily, making it a versatile material for construction purposes. Aluminum does not conduct heat as well as other metals, which can be advantageous or disadvantageous, depending on the application.
