Problems solved by technology

[0005] The burning loss of titanium hydride is serious, and the effective consumption is less than 1/5 of the total amount added
Since the temperature of the metal melt far exceeds the decomposition temperature of the blowing agent, when titanium hydride is added to the melt, titanium hydride particles will float on the surface of the aluminum melt due to poor wettability between titanium hydride and the aluminum melt. With the vigorous stirring, it can gradually mix with the melt and start to foam. During this period, the ambient temperature near the titanium hydride is always higher than its decomposition temperature, so the titanium hydride will continue to decompose and degas, resulting in serious gas source waste.
[0006] The parameter control window in the preparation process is too small. During the stirring process after adding titanium hydride, the t

preparation example Construction

[0039] The above-mentioned preparation method of foamed aluminum adopts a new foaming agent. In the new foaming agent, titanium hydride composite particles coated with an oxide layer on the surface of titanium hydride are used as the foaming component. Since the titanium hydride particles are covered with oxide , so that when the foaming agent is added to the melt, it will not decompose immediately, avoiding the problem that titanium hydride is easily burned when it is added to the melt. Covering further delays the foaming time of the foaming agent, and more importantly, the presence of alloys or metals also increases the wettability of the foaming agent and the aluminum melt, so that the foaming agent can be evenly dispersed in the aluminum melt Middle; when the temperature of the aluminum melt reaches the dehydrogenation temperature of titanium hydride, the particles of titanium hydride can stably form uniform small-pore bubbles in the aluminum melt, thereby preparing aluminu...

Embodiment 1
