Aluminum-based alloy


   As a construction material commonly used is not pure aluminum and various alloys based on it.

   Aluminum-magnesium alloys have high corrosion resistance and good welded together; of them do, such as building high-speed vessels.

   Aluminum-manganese alloys are quite similar to aluminum-magnesium.

   Aluminum-copper alloys (including anodized aluminum) can be subjected to heat treatment, which greatly increases their durability. Unfortunately, heat-treated materials can be welded, so the aircraft parts are still connecting rivets. Alloys with high copper content, the color looks very similar to gold, and it is sometimes used to simulate the latter.

   Aluminum-silicon alloys (silumin) are best suited for casting. Of these, frequently cast housing of different mechanisms.

   Integrated aluminum-based alloy: avial.

   Aluminium becomes superconducting at a temperature of 1.2 Kelvin.
