アーク溶解等の水冷銅るつぼが使用されてきた。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in titanium alloys, oxygen impairs mechanical properties such as elongation, so that its content has been desired to be reduced. However, methods for deoxidizing titanium or titanium alloys are not well known. Not. As a method of deoxidizing titanium oxide, there is a method using CaH 2 powder or CaCl 2 flux, but it is not suitable for use of structural titanium or titanium alloy. In electron beam scouring, the vapor pressure of titanium is higher than that of oxygen, and the amount of oxygen in titanium or a titanium alloy increases. Further, when the titanium alloy is melted using the refractory crucible, the oxide of the crucible is reduced, and the amount of oxygen in the titanium alloy increases. Therefore, a water-cooled copper crucible such as vacuum arc melting has been used for melting a conventional titanium alloy.

易になる。As shown in Table 1 , when a water-cooled copper crucible is used, there is no contamination from the crucible material due to non-contact melting. The magnetic force given by Fleming's law by magnetic induction is applied to the molten metal. As a result, an inward magnetic force is applied to the molten metal, while no magnetic force is applied to the deoxidized product, so that the deoxidized product accumulates on the surface of the molten metal, thereby facilitating removal in a subsequent step.
