Ceramic filter plate for aluminum can not only effectively eradicate the large oxidized inclusions in the molten aluminum, but also filter out the few micrometers of fine inclusions that the traditional technology is unable to do. Since the hydrogen atoms, sodium, potassium, and other harmful ions in the aluminum liquid are often adsorbed on the inclusions, and the inclusions can become the core of bubble formation, so while filtering the inclusions, it can also reduce these harmful elements in the aluminum liquid. And gas content. Some studies also believe that the ceramic foam filter plate filters out many small inclusions, thus reducing the effective crystal nucleus required for the solidification of the molten aluminum, which can promote the growth of the nucleation of the molten aluminum under relatively large supercooling conditions, and the structure can be refined.

The most straightforward way to evaluate the quality of the filter plate is to detect the reduction rate of inclusions before and after the aluminum liquid passes through the ceramic foam filter plate, that is, sampling and analysis. Large international companies often use a PODFA method to evaluate the filtration efficiency of ceramic filter plate for aluminum.
This method actually measures the time it takes for the molten aluminum to pass through an ultrafine graphite filter disc. When the container is evacuated, the time required to pass a certain amount of molten aluminum under atmospheric pressure is related to the degree of cleanliness of the molten aluminum. The time required for clean molten aluminum to pass is less, and the time required for dirty molten aluminum is long. In addition, the filtered graphite plate can also be analyzed. The size of the inclusions retained on it can indicate the cleanliness of the molten aluminum.
Generally speaking, there are three ways to remove inclusions from molten aluminum: precipitation, floating, and filtration. When the size of the inclusions is less than 90μm, the possibility that they will settle to the bottom of the furnace by gravity is very small. Traditional gas purification, online refining and other processes can make some inclusions float to the surface of the molten aluminum, but when the size of the inclusions. When it is less than 30 μm, the chance of rising is very small. The advantage of the filter plate is that it can filter out inclusions that are much smaller in size than its pore size.
Ceramic foam filters (CFFs) are a type of advanced ceramic filter with a three-dimensional interconnected network of pores that allow for the filtration of molten metals and alloys. CFFs are widely used in the metal casting industry as they offer several advantages over other types of filters. In this article, we will discuss the advantages and applications of ceramic foam filters.
CFFs have a highly porous structure that provides an increased surface area for filtration. The pores of the ceramic foam filter are sized to capture impurities while allowing the molten metal to pass through. This results in a highly efficient filtration process that removes unwanted impurities and ensures the quality of the final product.
CFFs are highly reliable and offer consistent quality over long periods of use. This is because the ceramic foam material used in the filter is highly durable and does not degrade easily, even in high-temperature and high-pressure environments. This ensures that the filtration process remains consistent throughout the casting process, resulting in a high-quality final product.
Ceramic foam filters are highly resistant to high temperatures, making them suitable for use in the casting of metals and alloys that require high temperatures for melting and casting. The filters are made of a highly refractory material that can withstand temperatures up to °C, making them ideal for use in high-temperature casting processes.

Ceramic foam filters are also highly resistant to chemicals, making them suitable for use in casting processes that involve the use of corrosive chemicals. The filters can withstand exposure to harsh chemicals without deteriorating, ensuring that the filtration process remains effective even in corrosive environments.
Ceramic foam filters can be manufactured in a range of sizes and shapes, making them highly versatile and suitable for use in a wide range of casting processes. The filters can be customized to meet specific casting requirements, allowing for maximum flexibility and adaptability in the casting process.
Ceramic foam filters are widely used in the metal casting industry for the filtration of molten metals and alloys. The filters are used to remove impurities from the molten metal, ensuring that the final product meets the required quality standards. Ceramic foam filters are commonly used in the casting of aluminum, copper, iron, and steel.
Ceramic foam filters are also used in chemical processing applications where they are used to remove impurities from chemicals and other process fluids. The filters can be used to remove solid particles and other impurities from liquids, ensuring that the final product meets the required quality standards.
Ceramic foam filters are used in environmental applications where they are used to filter pollutants from air and water. The filters can be used to remove particulate matter from air and to remove contaminants from water, ensuring that the air and water are clean and safe for human use.
Ceramic foam filters are also used in biomedical applications where they are used as a scaffold for tissue engineering. The filters can be used to support the growth of cells and tissues, providing a stable and porous structure for tissue growth.
Ceramic foam filters are used in energy applications where they are used to filter hot gases and fluids in power generation systems. The filters can be used to remove impurities from gases and fluids, ensuring that the systems operate efficiently and reliably.
