THE USES OF ALUMINIUM.
Some of the Things 1T Should not Come i,
Contact With.

Some of the Things 1T Should not Come in
Contact With.
Two German scientists who have been
making extended experiments for the pur-
pose Of ascertaining the extent to which
aluminium can be used in the manufacture
OF vessels 20 contain eatables have reached
some conclusions that rather upset the pre-
dietions OF universal adaptability of this
metal. These scientists assert that alum
lnlum should never be used for articles
which are required to come in contact with
boiling water, nor should cans of this metal
DC used for the packing of fruits, preserves.
etc. Experiments showed that a large
number of organic acids, which are present
IN BRINE. fruit juices. etc., have a dissolvent
effect uDon aluminium.
According to these authorities the LIGHT
TASKS OF aluminium which have been made
for army use are not adapted for this pur-
pose, as clGrlc and ~tartaric acid, even in as
small proportions as one per cent, exercise
III injurious effect Upon the metal. Red
bordeaux and Moselle wine. and even tea
and coffee, have also q tendency to dissolve
ana absorb aluminium, probably on &C.
count OF the tannin contained in them.
Further than this, it is claimed by these
German experimenters that aluminium ia
not adapted for articles which require to
be cleansed with soap or soda, nor ia this
much praised metal destined to play an i'm
portant part in the manufacture of chem
zeal utensils. for it is attacked by such ele-
mants as phenol, salicyclic and boracic
ACID. If these charges can be substantiated
by actual tests the utility of aluminium is
considerably curtailed.
