  • Shrinkage cavity
    Voids in an ingot or shaped metal casting that form as a result of shrinkage during solidification of molten metal. Shrinkage cavities are usually located in the upper part of the ingot or those spaces in the casting where the molten metal last enters during pouring. During solidification, shrinkage cavities are used to supply molten metal into all voids formed below the cavity; therefore,...

  • Carbon steel
    Carbon steel consists of iron and 0.12 - 2.00% carbon. A broader definition includes alloy steels, where the alloy content can also be as high as 10.5%. Even in the carbon content range below two percent, there are huge differences in physical properties, especially hardness. When people talk about carbon steel, they are usually referring to the high carbon steel used in knives and tools. High...

  • What is stainless steel?
    Stainless steels are corrosion-resistant alloys of iron, chromium, and in some cases nickel and other metals.Stainless steel is completely and infinitely recyclable, making it an excellent "green material". In fact, in construction, the actual recycling rate is close to 100%. Stainless steel is also environmentally neutral and inert, and its longevity ensures that it meets the demands of...

  • Silica Sol Casting
    Why is silica sol used in investment casting?Silica sol is a milky colloid. Due to the small colloidal particles (10-20 microns) and the large surface area, the natural color of the coating material is not affected. Silica sol is miscible with water, but not with organic solvents. It can be dissolved in any proportion of alcohol or water mixed solution. Its distinctive feature is that it has...
