Perhaps HE30 TF Aluminium would be a good Aluminium to use for my Astronomical Telescope mirror. I am going to try to grind my own mirror.!

The coefficient of linear expansion, expressed as a mean value for temperatures between 20ñ100°C, is for pure aluminium (Al99,99) 23,6·10ñ6/K and for most aluminium alloys in the range 22,8ñ24,2·10ñ6/K.

Remember the coefficient of linear expansion increases with temperature.

(23/1000000) per degree K at 20 degrees C.. The value for steel is, in comparison, (12/1000000) in the same units.
