  • For today's #metalmonday, let's take a look at some of the world's rarest naturally occurring metals. The world's rarest naturally occurring metal is astatine. However, it's important to note that astatine is not a metal in the traditional sense; it's a radioactive element and is classified as a metalloid. Its rarity is due to its extremely short half-life, which makes it one of the least abundant elements in the Earth's crust. Astatine is so rare that less than 1 gram is thought to exist naturally in the Earth's crust at any given time. In terms of rare precious metals, rhodium and iridium are among the rarest. Rhodium is a silver-white metallic element that is highly reflective and resistant to corrosion. It's used in high-performance alloys and as a catalyst. Iridium, another metal in the platinum group, is the most corrosion-resistant metal known and is used in high-temperature and corrosive environments, as well as in some types of spark plugs and in the production of crucibles for crystal growth. These metals are not just rare in terms of their abundance in the Earth's crust but also in terms of their production and availability in the market. #materialscience #metals #elements

    Following the launch of Bodycote’s first two zero-emissions facilities in Derby and Rotherham, we are pleased to share a new video from the recent visit of Mr. Baggy Shanker, Member of Parliament for Derby South, to our Derby site. These state-of-the-art facilities, which heat treat turbine blades for Rolls-Royce engines using 100% renewable electricity, represent an industry first for heat treatment and a significant step in our long-term decarbonisation strategy. Mr. Shanker’s visit highlighted the importance of local engagement, technical ambition and sustainable innovation. We are proud to showcase how our teams in Derby and Rotherham are helping to shape a cleaner, more resilient future for our industry and the communities we support.

  • 🌉 This #MetalMonday, let's travel back in time to the Industrial Revolution, a period that changed the world. The star of this era? Cast iron. Cast iron is an alloy of iron that contains 2-4% carbon, along with varying amounts of silicon and manganese and traces of impurities such as sulphur and phosphorus, it is made by reducing iron ore in a blast furnace. This versatile metal helped to spur industrial innovation, leading to the construction of the first iron bridge in 1779. The iconic Iron Bridge over the River Severn in Shropshire, England, became a symbol of technological advancement and the use of metals in new, previously unimaginable ways. The bridge was so successful that it gave its name to the spectacular wooded valley which surrounds it, now recognised as the Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage Site. Cast iron was favoured for its ability to bear heavy loads and span long distances, paving the way for modern architecture and engineering. It was used in buildings, railways, and machinery, laying the foundations for the modern world. #engineering #architecture #history #metalwork #metallurgy
