This space station was also available as a model from Aluminium Metal Toys.

Aluminium cylinders are also often used where divers carry many cylinders, such as in technical diving in warm water where the dive suit does not provide much buoyancy, because the greater buoyancy of aluminium cylinders reduces the extra buoyancy the diver would need to achieve neutral buoyancy.

Aluminium cans are also common and are generally used for more expensive products.

The primary sight has an integrated Neodymium Yttrium Aluminium Garnet ( Nd: YAG ) solid state laser rangefinder and a 120 element cadmium mercury telluride, CdHgTe ( also known as CMT ) Zeiss thermal sight which are both linked to the tank's fire control computer.

Aluminium chlorohydrate is one of the most common active ingredients in commercial antiperspirants and is also often used as a flocculant in water treatment stations.

Aluminium chlorohydrate is also used as a coagulant in water and waste water treatment process to remove dissolved organic matter and colloidal particles present in suspension.

Aluminium molds can be male or female in nature, and can also be used in pressure forming applications.

Aluminium body on Volvo B10M Mark I chassis, also known as a Volgren Twin Deck ( or TwinDeck ) based on a HiDeck configuration.

Aluminium was used in the hood, doors, and trunk lid, with steel specified elsewhere for most models, though a few aluminium-bodied racing versions were also built.

After few seconds Aluminium bombs blast from back of the car and police also closed the railway gate not to escape him.

Aluminium powder was also added to the mix to further enhance the effect.

He has also appeared in the drama serial Making Out ; in the Doctor Who story Delta and the Bannermen ; in comedy in The Armando Ianucci Shows ; and in the film Rancid Aluminium.

Aluminium engine cradles and suspension struts for stretched Lincoln Town Car were the first automotive parts that were friction stir at Tower Automotive, who use the process also for the engine tunnel of the Ford GT.

Aluminium alloys should also be cleaned prior to welding, with the goal of removing all oxides, oils, and loose particles from the surface to be welded.

He also held positions with the London and Manchester Assurance Company, Trusthouse Forte, and British Aluminium, of which he was chairman from 1987 to 1991.

Aluminium and various alloys also exist.

A study has suggested that low Calcium causes soil acidification and increased toxicity caused by metallic elements such as Aluminium may be causing the dieback.

Aluminium is one of the few abundant elements that appears to have no beneficial function to living cells ( non-essential metal ).

Aluminium siding is ideal for homes in coastal areas ( with lots of moisture and salt ), since aluminium reacts with air to form aluminium oxide, an extremely hard coating that seals the aluminium surface from further degradation.

* Aluminium oxide ( surface layer on aluminium ) 35

Aluminium alloys typically form a thicker oxide layer, 5-15 nm thick, but tend to be more susceptible to corrosion.

Aluminium alloy parts are anodized to greatly increase the thickness of this layer for corrosion resistance.

Aluminium reflective layer ( reflecting red light ) 9.

* The sail orientation is specified by its axis, or the unit vector, say, n orthogonal to the mean plane of the sail, usually put in the back sail semispace ; the fronside of a sail is the side of its reflective layer ( e. g. a very thin layer of Aluminium ), whereas the backside is the side of either its plastic support layer ( e. g. Kapton ) or the emissive layer ( e. g. an ultra-thin film of Chromium ), if any.

* Aluminium brass contains aluminium, which improves its corrosion resistance.

Aluminium body, polyamide lacquered with an embossed aluminium lid and a stainless steel stirrup.

Delfzijl is the fifth biggest seaport in the Netherlands and the home of an aluminium plant run by the company Aluminium Delfzijl ( part of Tata Steel Europe ).

Aluminium cannot be produced by the electrolysis of an aluminium salt dissolved in water because of the high reactivity of aluminium with the protons of water and the subsequent formation of hydrogen.

Power production, aluminium production ( Sør-Norge Aluminium ), sea-farming, shipbuilding ( Eidsvik Skipsbyggeri, Hellesøy Verft, Bergen Group Halsnøy ) and lifeboat production ( Umoe Schat-Harding, Norsafe, Eide Marine Tech, Noreq ) all have water as the main basis of production.

The largest industries are Alcoa Lista, an aluminium plant, and Farsund Aluminium Casting AS, which makes auto parts of aluminium.

Holyhead's main industry was aluminium-based until September 2009, with Rio Tinto Group's Anglesey Aluminium subsidiary operating a massive aluminium smelter on the outskirts of the town, including a plant that refined bauxite.

Some people prefer not to use baking powder with aluminium because they believe it gives food a vaguely metallic taste, and because of speculations on the connection between aluminium intake and diseases such as Alzheimer's disease ( see Aluminium ).

The prototype, FV 4211 or the " Aluminium Chieftain ", was fitted with a welded aluminium add-on armour, in essence a box on the front hull and front and side turret to contain the ceramic modules, of which box the fifty millimetre thick inner wall due to its relative softness could serve as their backing plate.

The LME offers futures and options contracts for aluminium, aluminium alloy, NASAAC ( North American Special Aluminium Alloy ), cobalt, copper, lead, molybdenum, nickel, steel billet, tin and zinc.

Aluminium, while requiring a thin barrier metal to promote low ohmic resistance when making a contact directly to silicon or aluminium layers, did not require barrier metals on the sides of the metal lines to isolate aluminium from the surrounding silicon oxide insulators.
