Filtration is the most cost effective method to purify aluminum. In this paper, filtration experiments have been carried out using both AlF3 slurry coated, and uncoated Al2O3 ceramic foam filter (CFF) to study the removal of both nonmetallic inclusions and impurity elements. The results showed that the 30 ppi CFF removed up to 85% inclusions from aluminum. The contributing mechanisms for the re...

thermomechanical control process steel produced by rolling has a significant anisotropy. the elongated grains and inclusions formed during hot rolling of ferrite and low carbon hsla steels directly influence the anisotropy of the steel’s mechanical properties as a result of microstructural anisotropy. the present research deals with this anisotropy, and particular attention has been paid to the...

The Electric Current Injection (ECI) method of nondestructive evaluation is applied to materials that are electrically conductive but not magnetically permeable, such as aluminum, magnesium, and titanium. It consists of detecting current-flow anomalies due to voids, nonmetallic inclusions and open cracks in the conducting material, through distortions introduced in the magnetic field generated ...

Tinplate is widely used in food packaging and chemical packaging. Industrial production continues to reduce the thickness of tinplate steel, which puts higher requirements on control inclusions. In this study, compared with traditional detection methods, Ultrasonic Detection method can analyze distribution nonmetallic inclusions larger size samples, closer actual process. The numerical simulati...
