CALCIUM/ALUMINUM ALLOY

Title:

CALCIUM/ALUMINUM ALLOY

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JPS58167734

Kind Code:

A

Abstract:

A substantially homogeneous calcium/aluminium alloy having a calcium/aluminium atomic ratio of from about 60/40 to 80/20 and with useful and unexpected properties of brittleness, passivity to atmospheric moisture and low volatility is prepared by a process which comprises adding aluminium under an inert atmosphere to molten calcium at a temperature of from about 550 to 1100°C and at a rate to prevent substantial solids formation in the melt during the addition. The molten alloy is converted to particulate solid either by melt atomization or by casting, crushing and grinding. Lead/calcium/aluminum and tin/calcium/aluminum alloys are prepared by adding the calcium/aluminum alloy to the molten lead or tin, while cal- cium/aluminumllithium alloy is prepared by adding lithium to the molten calcium/aluminum alloy.
