Saru ATB (3:1/5:1/10:2) (Tablet/Cut length/ Coil form) Grain-Refiner
Product: Saru ATB (3:1/5:1/10:2) is a grain refiner for Al-Si hypo-eutectic alloys, it is available in compositions 3:1/5:1/10:2 i.e., 3/5/10% titanium and 1/1/2% boron. Saru ATB (3:1/5:1/10:2) is recommended for grain refining aluminium alloys. Saru has a wide range of ATB grain refiner form as shown below:
| Saru Master Alloy |
Application |
| ATB 3:1 (Tablet/Cut length/Coil) |
Ti 3% B 1 % balance Al (for Grain Refinement) |
| ATB 5:1 (Tablet/Cut length/Coil) |
Ti 5% B 1 % balance Al (for Grain Refinement) |
| ATB-10:2 (Tablet/Cut length/Coil) |
Ti 10% B 2 % balance Al (for Grain Refinement) |
Function:
Generally aluminium and its alloys solidify in heterogeneous manner to give coarse dendritic structure. Coarse grain structure imposes problems like poor mechanical properties, poor feeding characteristics, and gives poor response to surface and heat treatment processes Saru Master Alloy ATB (3:1/5:1/10:2) is recommended to overcome many of the above problems. Being metallic in nature, ATB (3:1/5:1/10:2) dissolves readily in molten aluminium alloys and thus gives more consistent results as compared to salt-based grain refiners. Use of Saru ATB (3:1/5:1/10:2) is far more environment friendly than the conventional salt-based grain refiners. Since no chemical reaction is involved, crucible life can also be improved.
Advantages of Saru Master Alloy ATB (3:1/5:1/10:2):
- Improves mechanical properties such as yield strength, tensile strength and elongation
- Increases resistance to fatigue
- Improves casting machinability
- Reduces hot tears
- Increase feeding rate of molten metal
- Reduce cracking in rolled & forged products
Instructions for use:
Prepare the desired aluminum alloy composition. Follow the normal fluxing and cleansing procedure recommended by using suitable flux from Saru flux range. After the degassing operation, add Saru ATB (3:1/5:1/10:2) and rabble it to ensure homogeneity of the composition.
Application Rate
As per recommendation.
Packing:
Available in 200gm tablets, Cut rod 200gm and Coil-9.5 mm diameter
Note:
Application rate can vary depending on the casting process, alloy composition, section thickness and solidification rate of the casting. Wait for minimum 5 to 10 minutes for grain refining effect to take place.
