3. Alloy Preparation. • Ingot Fusion: Aluminum ingots are heated in a furnace at over 700°C for approximately 25 minutes to melt them.. • Argon Gas Injection: Argon gas is injected into the molten aluminum to remove hydrogen., increasing the density and reducing the porosity of the material. • Addition of Alloying Elements: Titanium is added, Magnesium and other metallic elements to improve the mechanical properties of aluminum.
