Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing a magnesium-calcium alloy through aluminothermic reduction. The method includes the following steps that (1) MgO powder, CaO powder and Al powder are evenly mixed; (2) a mixed material is pressed into chunks; (3) the chunks are placed into a reduction pot, the reduction pot is vacuumized, heat preservation is carried out on the reduction pot for 3 h to 6 h at the temperature ranging from 1150 DEG C to 1300 DEG C, and magnesium oxide and calcium oxide are restored into magnesium steam and calcium steam; and (4) after the magnesium steam and the calcium steam are congealed, and the magnesium-calcium alloy is generated in a crystallizer. According to the method for preparing the magnesium-calcium alloy through aluminothermic reduction, the magnesium oxide and the calcium oxide serve as raw materials, aluminite powder serves as a reduction agent, and the magnesium-calcium alloy is obtained through one step of vacuum heat reduction, so that the problem of burning losses formed by a doping method is solved, the production efficiency is high, the cost is low, the environment is good, the product purity is high, and produced waste residues can be fully used for producing high-strength cement or used for extracting aluminum hydroxide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metallurgy, in particular to a method for preparing a magnesium-calcium alloy through aluminothermic reduction. Background technique [0002] Calcium is an alloying element of magnesium alloy, which can refine the structure of magnesium alloy and improve the creep resistance. Magnesium-calcium alloy itself can not only be used as a heat-resistant alloy, but also can be used in large quantities as nodularizers for the production of ductile iron, desulfurizers and deoxidizers for steelmaking. Especially for some low-silicon or silicon-free steel types, the magnesium-calcium alloy has a more prominent effect on the deep deoxidation of molten steel and the denaturation treatment of inclusions. In addition, magnesium-calcium alloys have low density, high elastic modulus, strong corrosion resistance, and good biocompatibility with the human body. Therefore, magnesium-calcium alloys have gradually attracted people's atte...
