Scot-Mag (Fused + Granulated Fluxes)
SCOT-MAG flux is an environmental friendly, highly effective granulated flux for removing non-metallic inclusions, hydrogen, sodium, calcium and lithium from molten aluminium & aluminium alloys.
ADVANTAGES:
a) Removes Sodium & Calcium along with other Alkaline metals from molten Metal.
b) Increases the extrusion speed and die life when extruding profiles and Reduces the number of breaks in continuous casting
c) Eliminates edge cracks when rolling high Mg aluminium alloys
d) Free of fluorides. Zero fluoride emissions and Non-hazardous compound
e) Non-Radioactive raw materials used.
f) Low melting point for rapid dispersion (<766°F, 480°C)
g) Less hygroscopic than magnesium chloride.
h) Replaces chlorine gas in furnace fluxing
i) Reduces the use of chlorine gas in in-line refining systems
j) Low application rates, typical 0.5 kg / MT aluminium
k) Keeps the furnace, launders, in-line degassers and casting nozzles free from sludge and dross built-up.
