Corrosion explained

Metals are used for the fabrication of many structures, vehicles and objects like cars, buildings, ships, etc. Because corrosion causes metal to deteriorate it is not wanted in our modern-day metal-applications. Yet it is a natural process that is dependent on several factors. In this article we explain what corrosion is and how it arises. We also take a look at the different types of corrosion.

The importance of emulsions for Aluminum drawing – Part 4 (final)

The aluminum wire drawing emulsion as like copper should be filtered effectively, this promotes clean running by removal of abrasive and reactive fines from the system. In aluminum emulsions it is best to use two systems, a centrifuge and also a paper filtration. A third system of a vacuum filtration could also be considered to remove the lightweight particles.

The importance of emulsions for Aluminum drawing – Part 3

The use of soluble oil emulsions for aluminium drawing is not a new application, however with newer types of additive and the performance that they provide, substantial benefits can be provided to the drawing company by using emulsions over drawing oils. Emulsions can be used for both EC and Alloys across all wire sizes from rod to super fine applications.
