Measurement of aluminium, silicon, manganese, copper and antimony in slag, castings and white metal

  • 1. Centre nucléaire TRICO, Kinshasa (Congo, The Democratic Republic of the)

Description

Chemical analysis of the slag showed 24.90% SiO2, 17.88% Al2O3, 0.75% F2O3, 46.4% CaO and 2.34% MgO. In the four cast metal samples the manganese concentration was 0.75%, 0.48%, 0.47% and 0.42%. The white metal contained 59.04% tin, 7.43% antimony, 22.55% lead and 7.08% copper. The slag, casting and white metal samples came from the Industrial Research Centre for Central Africa (CRIAC), having been provided originally by the Société Somkat of Lubumbashi which operates iron, bronze and aluminium foundries. The aluminium, silicon, manganese, copper and antimony concentrations were easily measured, without the need for chemical separation. (author)

Abstract (French)

La scorie contient d’après l’analyse chimique 24,96% de SiO2, 17,88% de Al2O3, 0,75% de F2O3, 46,4% de CaO et 2, 34% de MgO. La fonte comprend quatre échantillons dont la teneur en manganèse est de 0, 75%, 0,48%, 0,47% et 0,42%. Le métal blanc contient 59,04% d'étain, 7,43% d’antimoine, 22, 55% de plomb et 7, 08% de cuivre. Les échantillons de scorie, de fonte et de métal blanc proviennent du Centre de recherches industrielles en Afrique centrale (CRIAC). Ils ont été fournis par la Société Somkat de Lubumbashi, qui possède des fonderies de fonte, de bronze et d’aluminium. Il a été possible aux auteurs de doser aisément et sans séparation chimique l’aluminium, le silicium, le manganèse, le cuivre et l’antimoine. (author)
