Saru Modifier

Saru Modifier Al-Sr-10 (Tablet/Cut length):

Product: Saru Modifier-Sr 10% is modifier for Al-Si for eutectic aluminum alloys. They are particularly suited for all alloy properties, gravity die castings such as cylinder heads, manifolds, aluminium alloy wheels etc., The purpose of modifying eutectic Al-Si alloy is to change the acicular form of silicon to a spherical or globular form. The modification treatment improves the mechanical properties in both the as cast and heat-treated condition.

Advantages:

Al-Sr modifier has following advantages:

  • Improves mechanical properties
  • Increases resistance to fatigue
  • Improves casting machinability
  • Reduces hot tears
  • Increase feeding rate of aluminum melt
  • Reduce cracking in rolled & forged products
Application

Prepare the desired alloy composition. Follow the normal fluxing and cleansing procedure recommended for using suitable flux from Saru flux range. Degas the melt with a suitable grade of D’GASSER and dross off. After degassing operation, add Saru Sr-10 modifier depending on the melt size and rabble it to ensure homogeneity of the composition. Wait for minimum 10 minutes for modification effect to take place. Take a sample for checking the modification effect, if satisfactory start the cast.

Application Rate:
  • 0.2% for Saru Sr-10
Packing:
  • Available in 200 gm tablets form, cut length, cast cut rod etc,
Precaution:

Degassing and fluxing using chlorine-based products must be avoided after modification using Saru-Sr-10; otherwise, it results in strontium loss in the melt.

Saru Modifier Al-Sr-5 (Tablet/Cut length):

Product: Saru Modifier-Sr 5% is modifier for Al-Si for eutectic aluminum alloys. They are particularly suited for all alloy properties, gravity die castings such as cylinder heads, manifolds, aluminium alloy wheels etc., The purpose of modifying eutectic Al-Si alloy is to change the acicular form of silicon to a spherical or globular form. The modification treatment improves the mechanical properties in both the as cast and heat-treated condition.

Application:

Prepare the desired alloy composition. Follow the normal fluxing and cleansing procedure recommended for using suitable flux from Saru flux range. Degas the melt with a suitable grade of D’GASSER and dross off. After degassing operation, add Saru Sr-5 modifier depending on the melt size and rabble it to ensure homogeneity of the composition. Wait for minimum 10 minutes for modification effect to take place. Take a sample for checking the modification effect, if satisfactory start the cast.

Application Rate:

0.2-0.4 % for Saru Sr-5

Packing:
  • Available in 200 gm tablets form, cut length, cast cut rod etc,
Precaution:

Degassing and fluxing using chlorine-based products must be avoided after modification using Saru-Sr-5; otherwise, it results in strontium loss in the melt.

Saru Modifier A-129 (Sodium-based modifier):

Product:A-129 is a sodium-based modifier for Al-Si for eutectic aluminum alloys. The purpose of modifying eutectic Al-Si alloy is to change the acicular form of silicon to a spherical or globular form.
