Abstract:Molten titanium has a strong reaction with most of the refractories used for mold building in investment casting. Calcia partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) used as a facecoat material has a reduced reaction with molten titanium and is still offered at an affordable cost. However poor process control can greatly impair the formation of a thin alpha case, an essential condition to limit the amount of subsequent chemical milling. The effect of the prime stuccos, the viscosity of the prime slurry, and the shell m… Show more
