| Abstract Scope |
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) provides a way to study aluminum melt dynamics in real time. For the aluminum industry, understanding the time-dependent behavior of alkali and alkaline-earth metals is of major importance. In the present work, we use liquid-phase LIBS analysis to study the behavior of such elements in the melt and their interactions, including the effects of Sr and Ca microalloying in Al-Mg alloys, as previous research has suggested that these elements have an inhibiting effect on Mg oxidation. |
