Aluminum (Al)

Aluminum (Al) is a lightweight, silvery-white metal that is abundant in the Earth's crust. It’s known for its strength, corrosion resistance, and versatility, making it ideal for applications such as packaging, aircraft, construction, and transportation. Aluminum is highly recyclable without losing quality, emphasizing environmental sustainability. It has good electrical and thermal conductivity, useful in electronics and heat exchangers. Though it doesn’t appear naturally in pure form, it is extracted from ore (bauxite) through processing. Aluminum’s combination of durability, lightness, and recyclability makes it a key material across many industries.
