Description
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The light metals (aluminum, magnesium and titanium) are important for many applications, but are most critical for transportation where weight savings results in a plethora of benefits including reduced fuel consumption, higher speed and longer range, improved performance/handleability, etc. This applies whether we are dealing with automobiles, airplanes, space vehicles, bicycles or even submarines ? witness the titanium alpha class submarine in ?Hunt for Red October?.
