Aluminium in modern life (englisch 183 Words lecture english for
chemists)
Aluminium can be expected a real need for modern
industrial products like magnisium.
With a minimum of weight and much stability it can be
used for vehicle Industry as same as it used in household technology, for
example knifes and spoons. Argillaceous earth is much important for ceramics
and pottery. Aluminium is a good catalizer for Friedel-Crafts-reaction for
organic syntheses. Li[ALH4] is a reducer in organic chemistry.
One of the proberties is stability on oxygen so it is
used for eloxation of metalls. Al is in pure form a soft metall it is
malleable. It is a very active metal and
as a consequenze has many chemical and metallurgical uses
In nature aluminium can be found as Al2O3
in argillaceous earth, and kryolith Na3[AlF6] it must run
through an eletrolization process to get aluminium. Pure aluminium is a
silvery-white metal it is best Known for ist lightness. Same chemical
properties is the melting point of Al =660°C and the boiling point = 2467°C .
Al is one of the third most plentyful elements on the earth.
