Fluxing refining tablet "Degazer" (Дегазёр)
1. Application
Fluxing refining tablet "Degazer" (Дегазёр) is designed to clean aluminum and its alloys from non-metallic (Al2O3) and gas (H2) inclusions and impurities of alkali and alkaline earth metals such as Na, Mg, Na and Li.
2. Sphere of use
Primary aluminum and aluminum alloys of all groups - silumin, piston alloys with silicon content of 17-21%, secondary casting alloys, wrought alloys of 2xxx, 3xxx and 5xxx series.
3. Advantages
- Low melting point;
- High activity - it allows for deep cleaning from non-metallic inclusions and gas alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals and imputities;
- Fastrefining;
- Low capacity to form reaction products leading to the overgrowing of lining;
- Low humidity;
- Energy-intensivepackaging;
- Ready to be used in any type furnaces.
4. Method of use
1. Remove slag
2. Place "Degazer" tablet in the bell, then close the bell with paper wad
3. Turn off the burners
4. Measure the temperature (recommended temperature 680-750 C)
5. With the bell treat the entire volume of the melt till the end of the reaction
6. Allow for technology exposure of 15-20 minutes
7. Remove reaction products from the surface of the melt
5. Consumption rate
Consumption rate of flux "Degazer" - 0,3 - 0,5 kg per ton in refining of hydrogen and nonmetallic inclusions, 0.5 - 1.0 kg / t in refining impurities from alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals. Rate may increase depending on the degree of contamination of the melt when using scrap as a charge up to 1.5 kg / t.
