Abstract A thermodynamic calculation method on metallic thermoreduction during preparation of aluminum-rare metal alloys was presented. Taking preparation of aluminum-scandium master alloys using aluminum and magnesium thermoreduction of scandiumchloride as an example, this method was applied and the results were testified by experiment.

Key words scandium; master alloys; metallic thermoreduction; thermodynamic calculation
