The Zone-Refining Of Aluminum With Copper As The Major Impurity, Arlan Edward Rathke, Russell E. Hoar May 1958

The Zone-Refining Of Aluminum With Copper As The Major Impurity, Arlan Edward Rathke, Russell E. Hoar

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this paper is to report on the investigation of the possibility of removing impurities from the two important light metals, aluminum and magnesium, by applying the principles of zone-refining. The impurities in these metals are namely iron, silicon, and copper, which is the main impurity. Copper and iron come from the reduction cells, while silicon is introduced during the preparation of the material for the reduction bath.
