What materials and processes are used for?

Question

What materials would you say a silicon gun is made out of? Also what would say a deodrant can was made out of? and the processes for making both of these?

How woulf i find this out? I've tried typing in all sorts on google, but i just can't find anything.

Answer 1

A silicon gun would logically be made of the element silicon.  However if you are talking about silicone - the chemical family then that also contains silicon, but in a chemical form.

Aerosol cans are virtually always made of aluminium.  They are made by pressing or spin forming a piece of aluminium sheet

Answer 2

Here is the link for Den Braven's applicators. The industrial and domestic type. They are mainly made from metal cut and welded together.

The second is for a company making cans out of tin plated steel. That they probably roll and weld together.
