Description

Slags, Aluminum Refining is a specialized industrial by-product generated during the secondary refining and purification of aluminum metal. This material plays a critical role in the metallurgical process by efficiently removing impurities and non-metallic inclusions from molten aluminum, thereby enhancing the final metal's quality and performance. It is an essential consumable for aluminum smelters, foundries, and recyclers aiming to produce high-integrity aluminum alloys for demanding applications in the automotive, aerospace, and construction industries.

Application

• Primary application as a refining flux in secondary aluminum smelting and recycling operations.
• Used for the removal of dissolved hydrogen and non-metallic inclusions (e.g., oxides, carbides) from molten aluminum.
• Essential in the degassing and cleaning process to improve the mechanical properties and castability of aluminum alloys.
• Employed in foundries for the treatment of molten metal prior to casting to reduce porosity and defects.
• Facilitates the separation and removal of impurity elements during the refining of scrap aluminum.
• Used in the production of high-purity aluminum and specific alloy grades for critical engineering applications.

Quality Control

Our Aluminum Refining Slag is produced and handled under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. While specific composition varies based on the source aluminum stream, we implement rigorous quality testing protocols to monitor key parameters such as chemical composition, granulometry, and moisture content. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing lot-specific data are available upon request to support your quality assurance and process validation requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect performance. Store away from incompatible materials. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C.
