The Molten Aluminum Processing Committee of the Aluminum Division of the American Foundry Society undertook the production of a comprehensive compilation of existing key papers on aluminum foundry inclusions. These papers were obtained from technical literature–principally AFS publications, but also from other sources–where permission was granted. The result is one of the biggest sources of information on the subject of inclusions compiled in one book.

The subject matter is divided into 4 sections:

  • Inclusion Theory, Identification and Sources
  • Effects and Consequences of Inclusion and Casting Process Interactions
  • Techniques to Evaluate Inclusion and Inclusion Effects
  • Molten Metal Treatment: The Removal of Inclusions by Fluxing, Filtration and Flotation

A CD is included with the binder.

A complete list of papers included in the compilation is available by contacting Customer Service at estoreservices@afsinc.org. Please include the title and product number with your request.
