Aluminum
Aluminum is a lightweight, silvery-white, soft, non-magnetic, and ductile metal. It is the third most abundant element in the Earth's crust. It forms a passive oxide layer when exposed to air, providing excellent natural corrosion resistance. It is an excellent conductor of heat and electricity and is highly recyclable. While pure aluminum is relatively soft, it is frequently alloyed with other elements (like copper, magnesium, silicon, zinc) to significantly increase its strength, making it suitable for structural applications.
