Aluminum Sputtering Target Description
Aluminum sputtering targets share the same properties as metallic aluminum, a silvery-white, soft, non-magnetic, and ductile metal. Aluminum constitutes about 8% of the Earth’s crust, making it the third most abundant element after oxygen and silicon. Although aluminum is the most plentiful metal in the crust, it is rare in pure form due to its high reactivity.
Aluminum is typically found in over 270 minerals, with bauxite being the primary ore, consisting mainly of hydrated alumina and varying amounts of iron oxides. Aluminum layers are used for reflective coatings in telescopes, automotive headlamps, mirrors, packages, and toys. Aluminum sputtering targets and evaporation materials are extensively utilized in aerospace, automotive lighting, OLED, and optical  industries.

Aluminum Sputtering Target Manufacturing processes
Production and purification of aluminum
Deformation treatment of aluminum sputtering target
High-purity aluminum ingots are forged, rolled, and heated to refine the crystal grains and increase density, meeting the standards for aluminum sputtering targets. The processed aluminum material is then shaped into the specific target size needed for vacuum coating, requiring high precision and superior surface quality.
Aluminum Sputtering Target Packing
Our Aluminum Sputtering Targets are clearly tagged and labeled externally to ensure efficient identification and quality control. We take great care to prevent any damage during storage and transportation.
