Description:
Aluminium, the second most plentiful metallic element on earth, became an economic competitor in engineering applications as recently as the end of the 19th century. It was to become a metal for its time. The emergence of three important industrial developments would, by demanding material characteristics consistent with the unique qualities of aluminium and its alloys, greatly benefit growth in the production and use of the new metal. The global aluminium industry has undergone remarkable changes in the recent past and the outlook for the metal is quite optimistic in the coming years, as the global demand is expected to grow by eight percent in the next few years. Though the rate of growth of the aluminium industry is relatively low in the developed countries, having already reached a peak, in developing countries of Asia like India and China, an accelerated growth can be expected. This provides very good scope for new investment.

Description:
Aluminium, the second most plentiful metallic element on earth, became an economic competitor in engineering applications as recently as the end of the 19th century. It was to become a metal for its time. The emergence of three important industrial developments would, by demanding material characteristics consistent with the unique qualities of aluminium and its alloys, greatly benefit growth in the production and use of the new metal.
Aluminium has been termed the versatile metal of the 20th century since it finds application right from the kitchen to the spaceship. The growing popularity of this metal has been attributed to its outstanding physical and chemical properties, viz. lightness, and high strength of its alloys, high electric and thermal conductivity, good workability and the most important of all –its resistance to corrosion. Aluminium and its alloys find extensive applications in road transport, railways and aviation due to their good strength for relatively low weight. Aluminium also finds application in chemical and food processing plants. Owing to its good electrical conductivity, it finds use in electrical industries. Its strength, brightness durability and capacity to take anodic coating and colors are the most important properties for its use for architectural purposes.
The first commercial applications of aluminium were novelty items such as mirror frames, house numbers, and serving trays. Cooking utensils were also a major early market. In time, aluminium grew in diversity of applications to the extent that virtually every aspect of modern life would be directly or indirectly affected by its use.
Uses
Alclad: Aluminium products sometimes are coated on one or both surfaces with a metallurgically bonded, thin layer of pure aluminium or aluminium alloy. If cladding is anodic to the core, it is called Alclad. The cladding of Alclad products electrochemically protects the core at exposed edges and at abraded or corroded areas.
Automotive Products: The automotive industry uses wrought aluminium for trim, bumpers, body panels, and various interior parts. Alloys for trim applications are of the aluminium-magnesium type (2xxx series).
Aircraft Alloys: The need for low weight in airframes has led to the development of very high-strength aluminium alloys for use as plate, sheet, and extrusions.
Rigid Container Sheet: Aluminium rigid container sheet is used mainly for container ends or container bodies. The ends for beverage cans are made of 5182 alloy and usually have tabs made from 5042 or 5082 alloy.
Bright Finishing Alloys: A number of alloys are produced especially for surface finishing by bright anodizing. The common bright finishing alloys are 1100, 3002, 5252, 5657, 6463, 7016, and 7029.

Market Survey
India's share in world aluminium market is estimated at around 3%. India ranks fifth in bauxite production after Australia (62 mn tons), Guinea (17.50 mn tons), Brazil (16.20 mn tons) and China (10.75 mn tons). With a total output of 9.25 mn tones, the country contributes about 6% of the world's total production of 159 mn tones, India holds the fifth position in reserves base and is ahead of China with 2300 mn tones. India ranked seventh in alumina production with a total output of 3 mn tones, a share of nearly 5% of the global production of 61 mn tones.
The per capita consumption of aluminium in India continues to remain abysmally low at under 1 kg as against nearly 25 to 30 kg in the US and Europe, 15 kg in Japan, 10 kg in Taiwan and 3 kg in China.
Aluminium has a wide range of applications, from aircraft building to packaging, a major consumer being the electrical industry. The two sectors, electricity and transportation, account for more than half of the total off take.
The key consumer industries in India are power, transportation, consumer durables, packaging and construction. Of this, power is the biggest consumer (about 44% of total) followed by infrastructure (17%) and transportation (about 10% to 12%). However, internationally, the pattern of consumption is in favor of transportation, primarily due to large-scale aluminium consumption by the aviation industry. White goods account for nearly 5% of aluminium consumption in the country. The products include electric fans, air conditioners, refrigerators and coolers. The white goods industry uses both extruded products and flats.
In the transportation sector, aluminium is used for paneling, floors and windows. So far, it is not used for structural parts and bodies of automobiles. An Indian car uses only about 54 kg of aluminium against a global average of 100 to 110 kg. This sets the high potential for growth with the increase in the automobile sector.
Demand for aluminium is estimated to grow at 4 to 6% per annum. The demand for the metal is expected to pick up as the scenario improves for user industries like power, infrastructure and transportation, which are all on the move.
In the domestic market, the demand of aluminium is expected to touch 1.5 mn ton by 2015-16. Domestic demand for aluminium foils in 1999-00 was of the order of 41,000 ton. It had gone up to 62,000 tons by 2003-04 and to 76,700 tons in 2006-07. It is projected to reach the level of 100,000 ton by the end of the decade. Foil users, such as the pharmaceuticals, processed foods and telecommunication sectors, have been showing healthy growth. Aluminium foil industry is growing annually at around 7%. In the near future, with the phenomenal rise in disposable incomes, the foil industry is expected to receive a boost. Working couples, for instance, increasingly pack their food in aluminium foils. The growth in demand is expected to follow the increasing demand noticed in China.
