Structure introduction of magnesium alloy furnace, come to collect!

20 Mar,2023

Magnesium alloy smelters say that magnesium alloys are very active among all metals because they have an ignition point of 550℃ and a melting point of 650℃. At high temperatures, it reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide, while it reacts with water to form hydrogen and magnesium oxide, which causes an explosion. Therefore, metal oxidation or combustion must be prevented effectively in the process of melting magnesium alloy, which is usually achieved in the process of flux or no flux on the surface of metal melt. A large number of experimental studies show that gases such as C02.S02.SF6 can play a good protective role on magnesium and its alloy melt, but these substances will react with magnesium to form other substances. Such substances constitute impurities in magnesium soup, and a large number of impurities will float on the surface of the molten soup or adhere to the furnace side wall, and the dense ones will sink to the bottom of the furnace. When the substance becomes thicker and more concentrated, a large amount of this substance adheres to the crucible wall of the furnace. After a period of time, it will form a hard solid layer of material, causing a decrease in the volume of crucible. At the same time, heat from the external heating device of crucible cannot be properly transmitted into crucible, which reduces the melting speed and cannot meet the production requirements, thus reducing the production efficiency of die casting and seriously affecting the service life and product quality of crucible.
