ABSTRACT:
A powdered aluminum composition is mixed with lithium dispersed in an inert, non-water absorbent, liquid medium to produce a substantially homogenous admixture that is heated to melt the lithium and vaporize the liquid medium to thereby obtain a decovered powdered alloy comprising aluminum and lithium. The liquid medium has major and minor liquid constituents, wherein the major liquid constituent has a boiling point below the melting point of lithium and the minor liquid constituent has a boiling point above the melting point of lithium but below the melting point of the alloy being produced.
