Analysis of Hydrogen Content in the Main Stages of Low-Alloy Aluminum Alloy Flat Ingot Manufacture

详细

Results are given for research aimed at improving the quality of large tonnage flat ingots under RUSAL Joint Company (Krasnoyarsk) conditions as a result of reducing the hydrogen content within them to less than 0.1 cm³/100g. For this purpose, under production conditions the change in molten aluminum alloys series 1XXX hydrogen content is analyzed in the main stages from the aluminum electrolyzer to the casting machine. Production operations are determined within which there is significant melt impregnation with hydrogen. Research precision is provided by using a developed procedure for molten sample collection in the main production operations and considering the specific nature of production. Technical solutions are proposed from research results aimed at reducing melt hydrogen expansion.
