Concept and Application of Bauxite
Aluminum (Al) is the most abundant metallic element in the Earth’s crust. Combined with oxygen and hydrogen, it forms bauxite, which is the most commonly used aluminum in ore mining. The first separation of aluminum chloride from metallic aluminum was in 1829, but commercial production did ...Read more -
All of them are aluminum alloy wheels, why is there such a big difference?
There is a saying in the automotive modification industry that goes, ‘It’s better to be ten pounds lighter on the spring than one pound lighter off the spring.’ Due to the fact that the weight off the spring is related to the response speed of the wheel, upgrading the wheel hub ...Read more -
