Physical and mechanical properties of aluminum alloys may be
reached through the addition of alloying elements, known as
aluminum master alloys.
AMG Brazil provides aluminum master alloys which easily react and
solubilize on the final alloy even in low temperatures, reducing the
formation of unreacted phases, increasing the productivity, reducing
the consumption of energy and increasing the useful life of furnace
refractories.
Different aluminum master alloys may be produced by AMG Brazil, including
Ca, Co, Cu, Cr, Mn, Mg, Ni, Si, Ti, V, Zr, Zr-V, Fe, Fe-Si among others.
They also may be provided in different concentrations and formats,
depending on the client’s process and the types of master alloys.
Silicon Aluminum
Silicon Aluminum is a master alloy used for
incorporating the silicon in alloys containing this
element, such as the series 4000 and 6000 alloys or
alloys for casting. The use of this master alloy
provides a quick dissolution of silicon on the bath,
increasing the productivity and enhancing the
homogeneity of the final product.
Iron Silicon Aluminum
Iron Silicon Aluminum master alloy is appropriated for
incorporation of iron and silicon to the alloy bath
which needs these elements, such as 8011 alloy, used in
the production of aluminum sheets. AMG Brazil currently
provides this alloy in concentrations of 15% iron and
7.5% silicon, providing a high productivity and a
reduction of flaws in the final product.
Titanium Aluminum
Some alloys require in its compositions higher rates of
titanium. Titanium aluminum alloy is the best option to
these additions, due to its low melting point when
compared with other titanium sources, providing a high
productivity and a reduction of flaws in the final
product.
