I'd argue for an attempt to include all aluminium smelters, rather than just major ones. We may not be able to achieve the definitive standard required for "it's not on the list at Wikipedia, so it does not exist", but we could get close. These are not things someone can build in the backyard and power by a couple of oxen walking in circles. Or are the refineries relatively simple and it's a smelter I'm thinking of? Do we have a list of those as well? -- Scott Davis Talk 04:29, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
I have created a complementary List of aluminium smelters. I used a similar format to this list, but also added the coordinates of (most of) the smelters. Qwerty310 12:44, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
NEOKER, S.L. (www.neoker.org) is presently the only world producer of alumina whiskers. This tiny filamented material is the best choice to be used as reinforcing phase in Advanced Composites.
Their unique combination of the highest mechanical strength and their outstanding thermal and mechanical stability make alumina whiskers to behave as extremely high performance materials. Therefore they are the perfect candidates to be employed as reinforcing phase in every high added value Advanced Composite.
Alumina whiskers also offer a sharp competitive advantage over its competitors. As an example, the use of Neoker's whiskers avoid the characteristic degradation of SiC whisker reinforced materials, specially in high temperature combustion evironments.
Traditionally, the industries more interested in this whiskeres were the automotive, aeronautics and military industries. Nevertheless, every day they are emerging concrete applications that need new high performance reinforcing materiales. For all of them, Neoker do offer an advanced technological solution with their alumina whiskers.
Main applications:
-Metal Matrix Composites (MMC's) -Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMC's) -Isolation solutions for very high temperatures -Filters for agressive environments. -etc —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.60.3.173 ( talk) 09:33, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
