Abstract:
The purification of commercial aluminum by filtrating with high-efficient flux for removing inclusions and its mechanism were studied. It is found that combining reasonable flux components with purification technology is the key to ensuring its effect of removing moving inclusions high-efficiently from molten aluminum. With special flux (CJ-5) and filtration technology, and proper addition amount (3%) and melting temperature (720°C), the rate of removing inclusions and the extent of lowering porosity for different grades commercial aluminum could amount to about 70%-82% and 60%-88% respectively, and the mechanical properties of this material were improved remarkably, especially the relative increase of elongation (δ) was about 70% in comparison to that of no filtration. The main reason of removing inclusions high-efficiently for this method is that it can make three processes - melting, flux filtration and adsorbing inclusions with activated flux be fulfilled simultaneously in the whole course of melting of aluminum, which accords with the purification principle that more attention should be firstly paid on removing inclusions, thus giving full play to the purification efficiency of the flux.
