99.99% Al Refined Products
  • PHP is producing a large range of products (mainly slabs to be rolled) for the electrolytic capacitor market.
  • As a main technology leader in casting, PECHINEY HIGH PURITY is using each improved technique during production : melting, liquid metal treatment, high grade of filtration, automatic casting.
  • Purity is adjusted according to customers specifications with some doping elements in order to assure the best electrical capacity after etching.
  • Products can be shipped througout the world very quickly.

  • Bright Finished Rolling Slabs
    Light reflectors are made using high grade or refined aluminum products. PHP delivers as cast slabs, made with the most effient casting technologies in order to assure the best reflecting properties.

    P0101 High Grade Aluminum
  • 500 kg sows and 450 kg tees bars of very high grade aluminum with maximum of 100 ppm Si and 100 ppm Fe.

  • 99.9% High Grade Aluminum Ingots
  • 16 kg and 450 kg tees bars of high grade aluminum are produced by our 2 plants (Auzat and Lannemezan)
  • Various grades are available : most popular is the P0303 (300 ppm Si and 300 ppm Fe), but P0404, P0202 are also delivered according to the customers needs.

  • PECHINEY HIGH PURITY
  • PHP is a worldwide provider of High Purity Aluminum products. Purification, alloying and continuous casting are the main issues of PHP.
  • Purity levels go from high grade Al 99.95% (3N5) for reflectors through 99.99% (4N) for the capacitor market up to 99.9995% (5N5) for the integrated circuits (sputtering targets)
  • Pechiney High Purity is the only worldwide producer who can guarantee traceability for its high purity metal from ore extraction down to the sale of its ultra-pure billets.
    PHP is a division of ALUMINIUM PECHINEY with 100 people between 3 plants:
  • Auzat (HP primary Al)
  • Mercus (4N and 5N refining plant)
  • Lannemezan (HP primary Al and HP products casthouse 3N5 to 4N8)

  • 99.9% High Grade Aluminum Slabs for Bright Finished Products
  • Several purity grades (1080, 1095, 1090) are produced in order to answer to the main needs of the reflector industry.
  • Vertical Continuous Casting is used with degassing and efficient filtration in order to gurantee the best quality
  • Typical dimensions are 500 x 1060 x 3400 mm

  • Primary Electrolysis
    Production of primary metal and high grade aluminum

    Segregation Process
    The PECHINEY Segregation process is used for refining high grade aluminum for 4N and 5N products.

    High Grade Aluminum Materials (3N)
    High grade material is used in casthouses for special compositions which need a purer aluminum basis than the standard 99.7% grade.
    Main markets are areospace products, bright finish products.

    High Grade Products for remelting
  • As a leader in refining aluminum, PECHINEY HIGH PURITY is proposing high grade aluminum (> 99.9% Al) products : ingots 16 kg for remelting, Tees ingots (450 to 650 kg) for remelting, Billets pure and alloyed of different diameters
  • The quality of purity is guaranted by the improvements of primary electrolysis process and by the selection of the best cells

  • ALUMINIUM PECHINEY
    High Grade plants of AUZAT and LANNEMEZAN, located in the South West of France are dedicated to the high purity material.
