Scot-Mag (Dry Dross)

(MGCL2 BASED FUSED + GRANULATED FLUXES)

General Description

SCOT-MAG flux helps in removing non-metallic inclusions, hydrogen, sodium, calcium and lithium from molten aluminium & aluminium alloys. SCOT - MAG flux is a synthetic anhydrous carnallite (KMgCl3, K2MgCl4, K3Mg2Cl7). It is produced in both fine particle and granular form. SCOT - MAG reacts quickly and efficiently to remove sodium, lithium and calcium from molten aluminium and aluminium alloys, as well as from refractory furnace linings. Sodium levels less than 1 ppm in high Mg aluminium alloys are attainable in the casting. SCOT - MAG flux removes various nonmetallic inclusions such as oxides, carbides and borides, and enhances degassing when injected.

Application

 

SCOT – MAG flux is usually used when the major objective is alkali (Na, Li, Ca) and non – metallic inclusion removal from all types of alloys in primary smelters. USE INSTRUCTIONS : Recommended ranges for the application of SCOT-MAG flux are below. Exact requirements depend on the initial and targeted levels of inclusions, hydrogen, sodium, lithium and calcium. Shop-specific application rates are developed through experience. To remove nonmetallic inclusions, hydrogen and alkaline metals from molten aluminum in melting or holding furnaces, add between 250 grams to 1.0 kg of SCOT-MAG flux for each metric tonne of metal charge. Addition and stirring of SCOT - MAG flux by means of SCOT-Flux Injection Machine gives the highest refining efficiency.

ADVANTAGES: a) Removes Sodium and Calcium from molten Metal. b) Increases the extrusion speed and die life when extruding profiles and Reduces the number of breaks in continuous casting c) Eliminates edge cracks when rolling high Mg aluminium alloys d) Free of fluorides. Zero fluoride emissions and Non-hazardous compound e) Non-Radioactive raw materials used. f) Low melting point for rapid dispersion (<766°F, 480°C) g) Less hygroscopic than magnesium chloride. h) Replaces chlorine gas in furnace fluxing i) Reduces the use of chlorine gas in in-line refining systems j) Low application rates, typical 0.5 kg / MT aluminium k) Keeps the furnace, launders, in-line degassers and casting nozzles free from sludge and dross built-up.

General Description

Scot Ca remover is a sodium free flux that can be used for all aluminium alloys for removal of alkaline elements like Ca, Na, Mg, Zn, etc. It is also used for degassing, covering and drossing of molten aluminium. It also form a protective coating to avoid oxidation. Scot Ca remover is also used for removing hydrogen from the melt.

Application

Uses : 1. Removal of Sodium &Calcium along with other alkali metals 2. Avoids Oxidation 3. Removal of Hydrogen from the melt. 4. Covering and drossing flux. 5. Economical method Instructions for use : Scot Ca Remover flux should be added to the melt at the temperature of 690-750 Degree Celsius. The recommended application rate should be 0.2 to 0.3% of the melt size. Rebel the melt and remove the dross from the top of molten metal. This flux can also be added through Scot Flux injection machine for better results.
