It is a ductile member of the metal group. It used in making various metallic products. Moreover, it is used in aerospace industry because of its light weight, durability, and strength.

Characteristics of Aluminum: Aluminum is a light-weight metal included in the metallic groups of the periodic table. It has bright silvery luster. It is widely used in making alloys because when small amounts of other metals are added to aluminum then harder alloys are formed. Aluminum is considered as the best metal because of its affinity for oxygen. This characteristic makes it resistant to corrosion and aluminum products are not corroded. Aluminum also has the capability to react with air to make its own thin oxide coating. This coating appears as a very hard, dark gray coating that protects the metal.
