Abstract

Magnesium and magnesium alloys are prepared for casting by melting with a flux composed of magnesium fluoride and magnesium chloride, the latter containing from 2-10 per cent of water. The temperature to which the metal is heated during melting and refining is kept below 800 DEG C. A flux composed of 40 per cent magnesium fluoride and 60 per cent hydrated magnesium chloride is described. Specifications 182,948, 219,287, and 280,530, [all in Class 82 (i), Metals, Extracting &c.], are referred to.
