Abstract
The effect of cooling rate on phosphorus removal during Al-Si solvent refining is studied during solar grade silicon purification. It is found that the phosphorus removal rate is controlled by kinetic factors. When the cooling rate decreases, the phosphorus removal rate increases. A concept of apparent segregation coefficient of phosphorus is introduced to characterize the phosphorous removal ability. It increases with the decrease in the average solidification temperature between 910.5 K and 1050.5 K (637.5 °C and 777.5 °C).
