Extrusion is the process by which a block/billet of metal is reduced in cross section by forcing it to flow through a die orifice under high pressure. • In general‚ extrusion is used to produce cylindrical bars or hollow tubes or for the starting stock for drawn rod‚ cold extrusion or forged products. • Most metals are hot extruded due to large amount of forces required in extrusion. Complex shape can be extruded from the more readily extrudable metals such as aluminium. * The products obtained are also

EXTRACTION OF METALS SUMMARY Most metals exist in compounds in rocks in the Earth’s crust. Many of these ores contain oxides or sulphides of the metals. The compounds need to be reduced to produce the metals as elements. Metals are very useful to us because of their special properties. Reduction means removal of oxygen or gain of electrons. Carbon is a good chemical reducing agent because it readily combines with oxygen‚ but it is only useful for the metals below it in the Reactivity
