MAGNESIUM-CALCIUM ALLOYS FOR DEBISMUTHIZING LEAD

摘要

A novel alloy for use in lead refining is disclosed which comprises magnesium and calcium. The preferred ratio on a weight basis of magnesium to calcium is between 1.2 and 5.2. A method of adding this alloy to a lead bath is described which brings calcium into solution with the lead and provides a high recovery ratio. rn/
