Abstract

Abstract This disclosure teaches a novel aluminum alloy having high resistance to oxidation during hot rolling, improved surface appearance and improved bright anodizing characteristics and the method of processing same. The alloy contains from 0.5 to 3 percent magnesium, from 0.02 to 0.5 percent silver, from 0.001 to 0.2 percent iron, from 0.001 to 0.15 percent silicon, balance essentially aluminum, wherein the silver is substantially dissolved in solid solution in the matrix.
