Aluminum Scandium Master Alloys Description
Aluminum scandium master alloys are semi-finished products and can be formed in different shapes. They are a pre-alloyed mixture of alloying elements. They are also known as modifiers, hardeners, or grain refiners based on their applications. These master alloys are used in aluminum wrought alloys and foundry alloys for composition adjustments and structure control.
Currently, an Al-2% Sc product is available in standard waffle ingot form but the manufacturing process is sufficiently adaptable to meet the specific product requirements of the advanced aluminum alloy design community.
Stanford Advanced Materials offers a complete range of alloys for the global aluminum industry including the Aluminum-scandium master alloy.

Aluminum Scandium Master Alloys Applications
– Hardeners: Used for enhancing the physical and mechanical properties of metal alloys.
– Grain Refiners: Used for controlling the dispersion of individual crystals in metals to produce a finer and more uniform grain structure.
– Modifiers & Special Alloys: Typically used to increase strength, ductility and machinability.
