Metals - Iron, Steel and Aluminum

Material is something that made of with matter form of one as well as more substances. This is also most used segment of any manufacturing or production unit. In this sense, any sorts of materials are the most essential part to create anything else from household products to building constructions. However, the terms of material is playing a most essential role in day to day life of people.

Apart from any others, materials are considered as the main source of mechanical engineering and industrial setting. Unprocessed raw material is used to made different types of finished products, which is used in different construction, distribution, and consumption.

There are various types of raw materials available to manage different needs such as:

Iron

Iron is a one chemical element within the sign of Fe as well as atomic number 26.  This is a one kind of metal in 1st transition series. Iron is also considered as the most general element for forming our complete planet Earth including both Earth's inner core and outer.  This is the 4th most common or required element in the earth coating. So, it is a most valuable and high required material in industrial settings and mechanical engineering sector.  Due to its flexible and long lasting quality this material is used in tiny product designing to large products designing.

Melted iron is a liquid

Steel

Steel is alloy of iron material and any others combined with carbon. While carbon is the main alloying element of steel and contain in the steel material within 0.002% to 2.1% as per the weight. However, steel is also containing some other elements to keep its durability and flexibility such as: carbon, silicon, sulfur, phosphorus, manganese, aluminum, nitrogen and oxygen. There are also some alloying elements deliberately combined to change the characteristics of steel such as: vanadium, titanium, boron, molybdenum, chromium, nickel, and manganese. Steel is one of the most precious and valuable element for different industrial settings and manufacturing units for production of different goods.

Aluminum

Aluminum is one chemical element within boron group in the atomic number of 13 and symbol Al.  This material looks silvery white and it never soluble in the water within the normal circumstances   Aluminum is also mentioned as the 3rd richest element after silicon and oxygen also it abundant element within the earth coating.  This material is making nearly about eight percentage of weight in the solid surface of earth.  This metal is also more chemically reactive, which native specimen is limited and rare to extreme decreasing of environments.  Apart from that, this material is a combination of more than 270 separate minerals in which main ore of this material is bauxite. This is also a low density mental, so most of the structural components are created from the Aluminium. Apart from these three, there are also numbers of materials available which are playing a most common role in the earth coating and in different manufacturing and mechanical production units. Now, there are also some new and advanced materials produced by combing these materials to make some long lasting structures.
