• First, Aluminium powder is powdered aluminium. This was
originally produced by mechanical means using a stamp mill to
create flakes. Subsequently, a process of spraying molten
aluminium to create a powder of droplets was developed by E. J.
Hall in the 1920s. The resulting powder might then be processed
further in a ball mill to flatten it into flakes for use as a coating
or pigment. Paint and Pigment Industry is its largest downstream
market, which shares 66.34% of the consumption in 2017.
