The Website
The website is a piece of AS level Physics coursework created as a research project into aluminium. The content that was found during research has been written up and divided into various sections which include: Abundance, Uses, History, Weaknesses, Structure, Extraction, Alloys, Conductivity, Corrosion and Properties. There is also a section where some questions are addressed.
Resources
Full listings of all the sources used can be found in the extensive bibliography which lists every "fact" that was used in the website with a list of sources which confirm it. This page also includes web links to websites that were used as resources.
Technical
I made this website from scratch. No dreamweaver, no frontpage, no nothing. Only notepad. All the HTML was written by hand so it is fairly possible that they'll be a few errors that will make viewing the website on certain browsers difficult. If you spot a problem please let me know so I can sort it out sharpish.
