Aluminum is a very active metal, which easily reacts with water vapor during the smelting process to generate hydrogen and oxide inclusions (Al2O3). These non-metallic inclusions are very harmful to the performance of aluminum products. Therefore, the purification of aluminum melt is one of the main ways to improve the quality of aluminum products. The […]
Alumina is properly called aluminum oxide, which is a chemical compound comprised of aluminum and oxygen molecules (Al2O3). After aluminum oxide refining from bauxite, alumina generally looks like a white powder similar to table salt or granular sugar. Aluminum oxide is typically referred to as alumina, but may also be called aloxide, aloxite or alundum, […]
