The solid solubility of iron in the aluminum alloy is low, a small amount of iron can be combined with elements in the aluminum alloy to form a needle-shaped iron phase, and the most common form is needle-shaped Al 3 Fe is called as an iron-rich phase, is hard and brittle, is three-dimensionally thick and flaky, cuts off a matrix, reduces corrosion resistance, and has a plurality of adverse effects on the mechanical properties of the aluminum alloy, including cutting performance, so that the mechanical properties, particularly the elongation, of the aluminum alloy are greatly reduced; the acicular iron-rich phase is a very active pore nucleation base, the tiny pores cause micro-porosity in the dendritic region, and the tensile strength, yield strength and elongation all decrease with the increase of the porosity. Thus, iron is the most harmful element in aluminum alloys. The aluminum alloy inevitably contains a certain amount of impurity iron which is mainly from crucibles and melts used in the smelting and casting processesTools, molds, and the like. In addition, the iron content in the aluminum alloy is increased every time the foundry returns are remelted, and the iron content in the aluminum alloy is gradually increased after repeated recycling. High-quality aluminum alloys such as industrial pure aluminum-iron, aluminum-iron-silicon alloys with very low silicon content have two difficulties in the production process, namely how to remove gas and impurities in the melt with high efficiency and no pollution; another is how to remove harmful alloying elements, such as elemental iron. Therefore, we propose an aluminum alloy refining agent for iron removal and a heat treatment process thereof.
