Extract

The introduction of a new material is a very slow process and engineers are extremely critical of the claims put forward in favour of any new materials. The development of aluminium and its alloys has been exceedingly slow and it has needed the extraordinary circumstances of the war and the brilliant work recorded in the eleventh report of the Alloys Research Committee of the Institute of Mechanical Engineers to establish finally the use of aluminium and its alloys. This paper deals with one of the latest metals to be introduced to engineers.
