Abstract

Light metals and alloys, particularly aluminium and its alloys are heat-treated in molten baths which contain as their main constituent alkali halides or a mixture of a plurality of alkali halides and basic-reacting substances in such quantities, not exceeding 30 per cent, that the metals &c. are protected from attack by the halides. The bath may also contain one or more alkaline earth halides. As basic-reacting compounds the oxides, carbonates or hydroxides of alkaline or alkaline earth metals, basic-reacting phosphates, tungstates or borates as well as oxides such as aluminium or magnesium oxide may be used, or compounds such as aluminium or magnesium oxide may be produced in the bath from the corresponding light metal or alloy, the formation of the basic-reacting compounds being promoted by temporarily raising the bath temperature, blowing oxygen, e.g. as air through the bath or adding peroxides such as calcium peroxide. The temperatures used are 300-550 DEG C. In an example aluminium is treated in a bath having a temperature of 530 DEG C. and containing 48 parts of calcium chloride, 31 parts of barium chloride and 21 parts of sodium chloride to which is added 10 per cent of barium carbonate. Specification 237,337, [Class 72], is referred to.
