All aspects of the treatment of liquid aluminum-silicon foundry alloys are featured in this book. These include refinement and modification, filtration, gassing, degassing, fluxing and grain refinement. Nondestructive control of the microstructure achieved by the various metal treatment processes is discussed, including thermal analysis control of grain size and eutectic modification.
This soft-cover reprint of the original 1990 classic book contains all the original text and images.
