Aluminum recycling technology boosted by crystallization research – Phys.Org
An innovative method for aluminum recycling has been boosted by research showing the microscopic changes that take place when molten alloys cool.

An innovative method for aluminum recycling has been boosted by research showing the microscopic changes that take place when molten alloys cool.
Researcher Dr. Biao Cai from the University of Birmingham’s School of Metallurgy and Materials used sophisticated high-speed X-ray imaging to record the formation of micro-crystals as alloys cool and solidify, under a magnetic field.
A mathematical model was developed by his collaborator Dr. Andrew Kao from the University of Greenwich to predict whe…
