Aluminum-Alloyed Cast Iron with Compact Graphite Inclusions from Fine Production Wastes

Resumo

An alternative method for producing aluminum cast iron in a mold using the recycling of fine machine-building wastes without an external power supply is proposed. Unlike the charge used in traditional energy- and material-consumption furnace methods, the charge for the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis is a mixture of an iron scale, granulated aluminum, spilled sand, and graphite chips.
