Abstract

The condensation behavior of magnesium vapor in vacuum and argon was studied by inert gas condensation method. The effects of heat source temperature 1273–1473 K on the macro morphology and condensation temperature of magnesium vapor condensation were obtained in vacuum and 0.2m3/h argon flow. The results show that magnesium vapor condenses in a small area in vacuum, while the existence of argon would prevent the condensation process of magnesium vapor, resulting in the increase of the condensation area. The initial condensation temperature of magnesium vapor carried by argon is 974.0–1159.8 K, which is higher than 781.8–1034.8 K in vacuum; The condensed products with dense combination can be obtained in vacuum, while the condensed products with different particle sizes can be obtained in argon flows. A new idea is provided for the manufacture of magnesium powder and magnesium alloy through the condensation experiment of magnesium by inert gas condensation method.
