First printing of the paper in which Sainte-Claire deville reveiled his process for the production of pure aluminium by creating the first crystalline silicon and perfecting the electrolytic process for obtaining metallic aluminium from sodium aluminium chloride.""He worked out a process for producing pure aluminum by reducing its salts with sodium. Deville’s methods made both metals readily available and drastically reduced their cost, but he himself did not take much part in their later industrial development. He used the sodium obtained by his method for the preparation of such elements as silicon, boron, and titanium.""(DSB).Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1854 C.
