Answers
The correct answer is option D. All of above.
Casting in foundries include Fluxing, Degassing and Alloying for grain refinement.
Flux is a reducing agent which stops oxides from forming on molten metal surface or absorb impurities to form slag, which is then scraped off the surface of molten metal.
Degassing is the method of removing trapped hydrogen in molten metal. Hydrogen may get trapped due to chemical reaction or by physical entrapment, during the process.
Alloying is addition of other suitable metals to molten material, in the right proportion, to improve quality and durability.
The answer to this question is D. All of the above.
This procedure usually happens in industrial facilities where various types of metals are standing into various shapes, sizes and alloys.
The melt treatment alludes to the melting metals at high temperature and cooling them rapidly keeping in mind the end goal to give them a specific shape.
Flux: Flux is the nearness of a force field in a predefined physical medium, or the stream of vitality through a surface.
Degassing: Vacuum degassing forms, in the broadest sense, allude to the presentation of molten steel to a low-pressure condition to expel gases (mostly hydrogen and oxygen) from the steel.
Alloying: A metallic solid or fluid that is made out of a homogeneous blend of at least two metals or of metals and nonmetal or metalloid components.
