Crucible Process

The crucible process is a metallurgical technique used to analyze and refine metals, typically involving melting the metal in a high-temperature container called a crucible. In this process, impurities are separated from the pure metal, or alloys are blended to achieve desired properties. It is often used in laboratory settings or metal production to obtain high-quality metal samples or to purify raw materials. Essentially, the process involves heating metal to its melting point, allowing impurities to separate out, and then cooling to produce a cleaner, more refined metal.
