Product Description
This combined starter kit is purpose-designed for aluminum foundries and cast houses evaluating zirconium grain refinement technology. By providing both CuZr40 and CuZr50 grades in trial quantities, process engineers can conduct head-to-head comparison trials to determine the optimal master alloy grade and addition rate for their specific alloy chemistry and casting process.
- 5kg CuZr40 (40% Zr): Standard grade for most 7xxx series and general aluminum alloy grain refinement applications. Moderate Zr concentration balances dissolution speed with copper dilution
- 5kg CuZr50 (50% Zr): Higher concentration grade for applications where minimizing copper addition is critical, such as Al-Li alloys and high-purity aluminum systems
- Melt Practice Guidebook: Comprehensive technical document covering preheating requirements, addition temperatures, stirring parameters, holding time optimization, and sampling procedures for Zr recovery verification
- Zr Recovery Calculator (Excel): Interactive spreadsheet tool for calculating master alloy addition weight based on target Zr content, estimated recovery rate, and melt weight. Includes historical recovery data benchmarks for common alloy systems and furnace types
| Trial Phase | Activity | Deliverable |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | Zr recovery rate at 720°C vs 760°C | Optimal addition temperature |
| Phase 2 | CuZr40 vs CuZr50 dissolution time | Grade selection for production |
| Phase 3 | Grain size measurement after T6 | Property improvement validation |
This starter kit is ideal for aluminum sand casting foundries, investment casting houses, die casting operations, and continuous casting lines currently using Al-Ti-B grain refiners and seeking to evaluate zirconium-based alternatives for improved high-temperature grain stability. Also suitable for university metallurgy laboratories and industrial R&D centers developing next-generation aluminum alloy formulations.
Trial Support Program: Each kit includes one complimentary 30-minute video consultation with our metallurgical engineering team to review trial results and provide grade selection recommendations. Upgrade path to full production quantities available with volume pricing upon successful qualification.
