Aluminum (AlSi10Mg)
AlSi10Mg is a relatively soft but versatile aluminum alloy material. Thanks to its relatively low cost, excellent machinability and formability, this material is widely used in many industrial fields and is currently one of the most commonly used metals. The construction industry is the main application area for this material, followed by general engineering. AlSi10Mg exhibits excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. Its thermal conductivity is about one-half that of copper, and its electrical conductivity is about two-thirds that of copper.
