Aluminium yog cov hlau ntau tshaj plaws nyob rau hauv lub ntiaj teb crust. Aluminium alloy yog ua los ntawm txhuas ua cov khoom tseem ceeb thiab ntxiv nrog rau lwm yam hlau. Nws muaj ntau yam zoo heev xws li lightness, ib puag ncig tiv thaiv, corrosion kuj, thiab lwm yam, thiab muab peb nrog ntau yam yooj yim. Muaj cov hlau ntsuab Aluminium, hu ua aluminium, muaj cov yam ntxwv zoo rov ua dua tshiab. Kwv yees li 70% ntawm cov txhuas uas tsim tau ib puas xyoo dhau los tseem ua haujlwm rau noob neej niaj hnub no.
Hauv kev txhim kho thiab kev siv lub zog tshiab, aluminium yog qhov tseem ceeb tshaj plaws. Cov khoom ua los ntawm txhuas thiab txhuas alloys los ntawm casting, forging, extrusion thiab dov yog dav siv. Qhov feem ntawm txhuas yog tsuas yog ib feem peb ntawm cov hlau. Muaj aluminium extrusion thiab aluminium dov cov ntaub ntawv yog maj mam hloov cov hlau ua cov ntaub ntawv yooj yim hauv kev thauj mus los thiab kev tsim kho.
