Composite wire with a plastic sheath for additions to metallic baths

摘要

A method for producing a composite wire for addition of solid products to metal baths in which the core comprises the addition products and a sheath of plastic material covers the core. The wire is produced by a coextrusion of the core and the sheath. The core comprises a mixture of a powder of addition product and a thermoplastic polymer powder, while the sheath comprises a thermoplastic polymer powder which can be the same as the thermoplastic of the core.
