Aluminum
Aluminum is a silver-colored, low density metal and is used in a large variety of commercial industries. The Unalloyed type is ductile, exhibits moderate strength, and is very resistant to corrosion under most circumstances. Aluminum can be dramatically strengthened by the addition of alloying elements (Cu, Mg, Mn, Si, etc.) and subsequent heat/work treatments. The low density of this metal results in its widespread use in the aerospace industry, and in other transportation fields. Its resistance to corrosion leads to its use in food and chemical handling (cookware, pressure vessels, etc.) and to architectural uses.
