\n\tAlcoa, Pittsburgh, announces that R&D Magazine <\/em>has named Alcoa 951 \u2014 an enabler for adhesive bonding of aluminum-intensive vehicles (AIVs) \u2014 an R&D 100 Award winner. The patented Alcoa 951 pretreatment bonding technology is up to nine times more durable than the competition. It enhances bond durability and enables more cost-effective, mass production of AIVs. Its ultra-thin profile more readily accepts spot welds and rivets, making it easier to use.<\/p>\n

\n\tAlcoa’s plant in Davenport, Iowa, has a state-of-the-art automotive treatment line that applies Alcoa 951 to aluminum sheet before it is shipped to customers. The technology was co-invented by Alcoa scientists Sherri McCleary and Jim Marinelli, and has been licensed to Chemetall in an exclusive global distribution agreement.<\/p>\n

\n\t“Alcoa 951 is rapidly becoming the industry standard because it simply outperforms the competition,” said Mark Vrablec, President, Global Aerospace, Transportation and Industrial Rolled Products at Alcoa. “For automakers that want the best long-term performance for their aluminum-intensive vehicles, this is the clear choice. It is widely regarded as one of the core enablers to the big automotive shift into aluminum vehicles.”<\/p>\n

\n\tThe amount of aluminum body sheet content in North American vehicles is expected to quadruple by 2015 and increase tenfold by 2025 from 2012 levels. To capture that growth, Alcoa invested $300 million in an automotive expansion in Davenport, Iowa, which is now complete, and $300 million in a second automotive expansion in Tennessee, which is on schedule for completion in mid 2015. Alcoa projects that this added capacity will grow auto sheet revenues six fold from 2013 to $1.3 billion in 2018.<\/p>\n

\n\tAlcoa 951 was also recognized as the “Best Product Innovation” at Metal Bulletin’s Global Awards for Aluminum Excellence earlier this year in Geneva, Switzerland. Alcoa and other R&D 100 award winners will be recognized at a black-tie event on November 7 at the Bellagio in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n
