Abstract
In the last few years two major trends can be observed in the secondary aluminium industry.
On the one hand the producing companies were obliged to reduce their production costs of standard Al-alloys by increased use of external low quality aluminium scraps.
On the other hand the production-boost of high-alloyed Al-alloys typically used in the automotive industry and the aircraft industry but also in military and space applications provides new operation situations.
The aim of this work is to investigate the infiltration and corrosion mechanism of refractories exposed to melts during the melting process of aluminium alloys by means of chemical and mineralogical characterization of provided used brick samples as well as of samples from laboratory corrosion tests.
