Many of these surfaces are natural in colour and show the typical metallic aluminium tone – others are bronze, black or coloured, matt or glossy. What they have in common is the surface treatment: it protects the metal and gives it its appearance […]

They can be matt or glossy, natural or coloured. But what actually happens during anodising, and why does it require several carefully coordinated process steps? What does anodising mean? Anodising is the common term for the electrolytic oxidation of […]

A new study by Transport & Environment (T&E) highlights aluminium as a key lever – and green aluminium as a viable route to significantly reducing emissions. Aluminium plays a critical role in EV design – from battery housings to chassis […]

These microcracks often only become visible when the light falls at an angle, whereas they are barely noticeable when viewed directly. They are an indicator of mechanical or thermal stresses on the surface […]

Recently, scientists have increasingly investigated metals as carbon-free chemical energy storage systems. The A-STEAM project now focuses on aluminium as a potential alternative energy source. The research project, led by Professor Christian Hasse, will receive around […]
