Method and means for suppressing discoloration during thermal treatment of a product of a magnesium containing aluminium alloy, the alloy contains in wt. % Mg: 0.45-12.0, with a preferred range of 0.45-6.0 wt %. The product, being either an extrusion billet, a sheet ingot, a cast product, or a forged product is heated to a temperature T where it is prone to surface discoloration and oxidation, wherein during the thermal treatment it is exposed to a suppressing atmosphere comprising 0.5-5.0% CO.sub.2 gas with a preference for 0.5-1.5% CO.sub.2 gas.

The invention relates to the field of aluminum metallurgy and can be used to produce ingots from high quality aluminum alloys when manufacturing aerospace and automotive products. The use of this invention relates to the technology of secondary modification. The method of casting products from aluminum alloys includes the following stages: a) aluminum melt preparation in the alloying furnace; b) addition alloy introduction into melt; c) degassing of the aluminum melt containing the addition alloy; d) addition alloy re-introduction; e) filtration of the aluminum melt obtained at stage d) and f) feeding the filtered melt into the crystallizer. It ensures the improved effectiveness of the aluminum melt modification with addition alloys without additional constructional changes in existing lines for aluminum ingot casting. It allows reducing the alloy modification costs, decreasing the grain in resulting alloys and improving plastic and mechanical properties of the obtained cast ingots and their products.

The present invention discloses a method for lowering an oil pipe in a gas well without well-killing, a soluble bridge plug and a material preparation method thereof, wherein, the method comprises the steps of: lowering a bridge plug in a wellbore such that the bridge plug blocks the wellbore at a predetermined location in the wellbore; injecting water in the wellbore after the pressure in the wellbore has been relieved so as to replace gases in the wellbore; and lowering an oil pipe in the wellbore to the location of the bridge plug. The method for lowering an oil pipe in a gas well without well-killing, the soluble bridge plug and the material preparation method thereof provided in the present invention successfully solve the problem of high cost for lowering an oil pipe under pressure after a fracturing fluid has been injected into the casing.

Processes for producing low-nitrogen metallic chromium or chromium-containing alloys, which prevent the nitrogen in the surrounding atmosphere from being carried into the melt and being absorbed by the metallic chromium or chromium-containing alloy during the metallothermic reaction, include vacuum-degassing a thermite mixture comprising metal compounds and metallic reducing powders contained within a vacuum vessel, igniting the thermite mixture to effect reduction of the metal compounds within the vessel under reduced pressure i.e., below 1 bar, and conducting the entire reduction reaction in said vessel under reduced pressure, including solidification and cooling, to produce a final product with a nitrogen content below 10 ppm. The final products obtained, in addition to low-nitrogen metallic chromium in combination with other elements, can be used as raw materials in the manufacture of superalloys, stainless steel and other specialty steels whose final content of nitrogen is below 10 ppm.
