Abstract

Aiming for hydrogen and oxidation easily produced in the melting process of Al-Mg alloys, three processes, including non-vacuum static melt treatment, non-vacuum rotary-injection purification and vacuum-stirring purification, were used to purify the Al-6Mg alloy melt. The hydrogen content and inclusion content were studied by means of the solid-state hydrogen measurement method, reduced pressure test method, FESEM and EDS. The results show that the purification effect of vacuum-stirring purification is better than that of the non-vacuum static melt treatment and non-vacuum rotary-injection purification. The hydrogen content of the melt decreases from 0.48 mL/100 gAl in the non-vacuum static treatment, to 0.32 mL/100 gAl in the non-vacuum rotary-injection purification process and to 0.10 mL/100 gAl in the vacuum-stirring purification process. The inclusion content of the melt decreases from 2.6% in the non-vacuum static treatment to 0.69% in the non-vacuum rotary-injection purification process, and to 0.39%, in the vacuum-stirring purification process.
