Although the metal is found abundantly in nature, an efficient extraction process remained elusive for many years.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Aluminum remained exceedingly high-priced and therefore of little commercial use throughout the 19th century.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Technological breakthroughs at the end of the 19th century finally allowed aluminum to be smelted cheaply, and the price of the metal fell<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>drastically. This paved the way for the development of industrial uses of the metal.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.adtechamm.com\/es\/2017\/12\/11\/2899\/\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-2968 size-full\" title=\"Aluminum Beverage Can\" src=\"http:\/\/www.adtechamm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/20171227Aluminum-Beverage-Can.jpg\" alt=\"Aluminum Beverage Can\" width=\"620\" height=\"544\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adtechamm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/20171227Aluminum-Beverage-Can.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.adtechamm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/20171227Aluminum-Beverage-Can-300x263.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Aluminum was not used for beverage cans until after World War II. During the war, the U.S. government shipped large quantities of beer in steel cans<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>to its servicemen overseas.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>After the war, most beer was again sold in bottles, but the returning soldiers retained a nostalgic liking for cans.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Manufacturers continued to sell some beer in steel cans, even though bottles were cheaper to produce. The Adolph Coors Company manufactured the first<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>aluminum beer can in 1958. Its two-piece can could only hold 7 ounces (198 g), instead of the usual 12 (340 g), and there were problems with the<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>production process. Nevertheless, the aluminum can proved popular enough to incite Coors, along with other metal and aluminum companies, to develop<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>better cans.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The next model was a steel can with an aluminum top.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>This hybrid can have several distinct advantages. The aluminum end altered the galvanic reaction between the beer and the steel, resulting in a beer<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>with twice the shelf life of that stored in all-steel cans.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Perhaps the more significant advantage of the aluminum top was that the soft metal could be opened with a simple pull tab.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The old-style cans required the use of a special opener popularly called a &#8220;church key,&#8221; and when Schlitz Brewing Company introduced its beer in an<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>aluminum &#8220;pop top&#8221; can in 1963, other major beer makers quickly jumped on the bandwagon.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>By the end of that year, 40% of all U.S. beer cans had aluminum tops, and by 1968, that figure had doubled to 80%.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>While aluminum top cans were sweeping the market, several manufacturers were aiming for the more ambitious all-aluminum beverage can. The technology<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Coors used to make its 7-ounce aluminum can rely on the &#8220;impact-extrusion&#8221; process,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The modern method for making aluminum beverage cans is called two-piece drawing and wall ironing, first introduced by Reynolds Metals company in<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>1963.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Where a punch driven into a circular slug formed the bottom and sides of the can in one piece.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The Reynolds Metals company introduced an all-aluminum can made by a different process called &#8220;drawing and ironing&#8221; in 1963, and this technology<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>became the standard for the industry. Coors and Hamms Brewery were among the first companies to adopt this new can, and PepsiCo and Coca-Cola began<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>using all-aluminum cans in 1967.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The number of aluminum cans shipped in the U.S. rose from half a billion in 1965 to 8.5 billion in 1972, and the number continued to increase as<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>aluminum became the nearly universal choice for carbonated beverages.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>The modern aluminum beverage can is not only lighter than the old steel or steel-and-aluminum can, it also does not rust, it chills quickly, its<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>glossy surface is easily printable and eye-catching.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aluminum Beverage Can Upstream terminal industry of aluminum deep processing industry (degassing&#8211;degassing unit, filtration&#8211;ceramic foam filter) Ninety-five percent of all beer and soft drink cans in the United States are made of aluminum.
