1 Application of manganese in aluminum alloy industry Reporter: Hao Guan AMG Aluminum China LTd

2 Summary Brief introduction of Al industry Methods of adding Manganese Market analysis

3 Aluminum The most abundant metal element on the earth(8.1%). Specific gravity is roughly one/third that of steel. Considerably lower melting point than most other structural materials. On volume basis, the electrical conductivity of pure aluminum is roughly 65% of the International Annealed Copper Standard, but Pound -for-pound aluminum is a better conductor than copper. Aluminum can be strengthened by strain hardening or cold working, however, much greater strengthening is provided by alloying aluminum with a variety of elements. Pure aluminum is used for electrical conductors,chemical equipment and sheet metal work, aluminum alloys are much more widely used

7 Aluminum Alloy Wrought Aluminum Alloy Wrought alloy is a broad one, since aluminum can be formed by virtually every known process,wrought forms include sheet and plate, foil, extrusion, bar and Rod, wire, forgings and others. Cast Aluminum Alloy Cast alloys are those specially formulated to flow into a sand or permanent mold, to be die cast or to be cast by any other process where the casting is the final form.
