Aerospace – For rocket fuel or aluminium MMC parts as recently being used for the new Airbus A380 wheels.
Automotive – As aluminium MMC parts for high end (Formula 1) applications, press and sinter parts for bulk automotive as well as metallic paints.
Chemicals – A wide range of sizes can give controlled reaction rates for manufacture of aluminium based chemicals.
Exothermic Reactions – For reduction of chrome oxide to make metallic chrome or other metal oxides for on site exothermic welding applications.
Explosives – The reactive nature of fine aluminium powder makes them ideal for explosives manufacture.
Paints & Pigments – Converted into flake to give the metallic sparkle or for silver finishes.
Propellants – From the Ariane V boosters to home built rockets.
Rapid Prototyping – Either by mixing with resins or via laser sintering, cold gas dynamic spraying and 3D writing techniques to make functional prototype parts.
Refractories – Sintered to form alumina based refractories for high temperature resistance.
