the guy Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 will centrifuging an alloy in it's molten form seperate the elements within it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilded Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Can't see why not, after all it's pretty much the same as any solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashman Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Wait up, I didn't think a solution could be centrifuged, only a suspension. Some alloys are solid solution and monocrystalline, those wouldn't be able to be centrifuged to any effect. Others are merely homogeneous mixtures, those type could be centrifuged.... but if any components of those form a solid solution, then those parts wouldn't separate.

insane_alien Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 the outside would become more concentrated in the heavier component but not by much. the added temperature will increase back diffusion considerably. its going to have to be an extremely large acceleration and would require multiple stages for separation.
