hello there,
i have problems.
when we poured high chr. white cast iron in molds, metal melt has boiled in sprue.
we tried degassing technique with Al turnings, but more didnt not work.
a lot of gas porosity,and shrinkage too.
we cast high. white cast iron aprrox. 1500 celcius degree and...
@EdStainless
yes we apply heat treatment process but we have old heat treatment furnace. flame furnace
we heat treat 280 minutes in 865-875 C for 11-
13 Cr balls.
and also 350 minutes in 975-985 C for 17-19 Cr balls
time and temperature depends on ball diameter.
we used pig iron for vitalization of melt when furnace waited for a long time.(nucleation)(grey-ductile iron)
we manufacture 17-19 Cr abrasive balls
I mean using 100% returns are impossible in production of 17-19 Cr ?
i wanna produce with %100 returns.
is there any method for apply this...
I m a material engineer and work in a foundry. we produce high chromium white cast iron abrasive balls.
we cannot use %100 returns in smelting due to inhibition of starting nucleation.
But we use pig iron for starting nucleation grey-ductile iron smelting.
i want to produce high chr white...
